[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 1681581, member: 24633"]Like non cents said, it is best to start a separate thread to get the most responses. If it is about an error, use the "Error" forum. If it is about what you should buy, it might be better in "Chat". With that said, it is very unlikely that you would find ANY gold coin in the $50-75 range unless it was fake. With the price of gold near $1600, even a 1/10th oz. coin would be over $150 just in melt value without even considering any numismatic premium. If you asked 50 people here where you should start, you will probably get 50 different answers. My suggestion would be to get a copy of the [B][I]Red Book of United States Coins[/I][/B] by R.S.
