I kind of do the same but I do take the slab cost into account. If a coin is worth $500 raw and then they send it into NGC and pay a $30 grading...
Authenticity is all I care about for the guarantee :). I should be able to determine the grade myself or at least get pretty close. Like...
I was looking at prices for raw ancients on Vcoins and a few other places and I’ve noticed they seem to be way cheaper raw than slabbed. Now I’m...
This is the most worn I’ve got for an ancient. It has the XF grade but it doesn’t deserve it. :/ [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Hmm so just some random dude poured a bar and put his name in it? O_o I should do that!
Who is Shawn Vowell?
If you’re just looking for St. Gaudens Double Eagles in a grade above MS63 and don’t care about the date or mintmark I recommend JM Bullion or...
Wow! Congrats Donna!! :) Personally I think an aureus of Augustus would be an amazing addition but even as it is it’s still very amazing! I...
I got you fam ;) [ATTACH]
Wow nice! Congrats! Unfortunately for me by the time I had my first job as an adult and was able to afford gold the price was already over $1,000...
Its true NGC doesn’t guarantee authenticity per se.. But that’s mostly for legal reasons. All it takes is one fake to get through and they can be...
Yeah that’s true. I’ll be honest I buy most of my bullion from JMB (not trying to advertise) so even though I might not get the very best deal in...
I believe the same it’s just that normally that moderate premium that any gold coinage gets makes it tough to choose them over bars. Like if you...
Hmm maybe that means buying “junk gold” foreign coins is a better move than even bars. That 100 Corona coin above has a lower premium than any...
Oh yeah she was referring to very isolated and rural areas where the DE sold at that 60% discount. Like when she had to take elephants through...
Ah well at the same time I didn’t know there was a shortage of silver coinage. In fact I thought people always preferred to pay silver instead of...
Why not just use gold dollars for change?
yeah I know but that’s why I’m so shocked to see some coins even cheaper than bars.
To be fair I’m not either I just try to learn the best I can but sometimes I get things mixed up. Oh hey I was going to ask you something else I...
I could’ve sworn that was the $4 gold stella. Or maybe I’m misremembering. If so I remember the Stella was meant to align with the Latin Monetary...
