[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 2561707, member: 77814"]Back in the day when St Gaudens were $440+ and gold was $3-400+ I always contemplated buying Gold 1oz St Gaudens. The Numismatic valuation always had me thinking twice about it. Now I'm in the same conundrum today. 2005 High Relief - Love the coin $2000 which is spot + a numismatic value or get a nice St Gaudens, MSsomething which is spot + a numismatic value for much less. or a low grade 51ish St Gaudens which is closer to spot. or get up to 14x 1/10th or combo with 1oz AGEs vs the 2005. I love the 2005, and also the St Gaudens and always struggle with pure bullion type coins vs more numismatic type coins. But when I buy a coin based on PM numismatic like my recent 1934 Texas Centennial I don't have much to stop me, unlike gold based coins. Maybe because silver based coins are so much cheaper. After all these years I have yet to buy a St Gaudens. And spot gold is now much higher.[/QUOTE]
