Just as in the past, the coin collectors are saying that gold price will come down, and buying old, worn coins with little or no numismatic value...
If I were a novice collector, I would be very concerned about counterfeit gold coins. That’s why I bought gold coins only from certain, often...
I buy in auctions and from dealers’s websites I know from when the shows were operating.
The $20.67 per ounce price pegged the melt value of a $20 gold piece at about $20. A double eagle weighed a little less than an ounce. Unlike the...
