<p>[QUOTE=&quot;hugo_danner, post: 144635, member: 5812&quot;]I&#039;m currently living in South Korea and for the most part have been buying from Apmex and having it shipped to a trusted friend and stored.</p><p><br /></p><p>I wondered about buying gold here and went to Namdaemeun market (the largest outdoor market in SK) I find a market that has a lot of jewlers in it and found a beautiful brilliant uncirculated 1912 (1/2 ounce) gold eagle that I bought for $350. The going rate of gold is about W21,000 per gram right now.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also found out that most Koreans aren&#039;t interested in gold coins they usually buy them as jewelry, little items like golf balls and other nick-nacks (etc...) and in a small stamped hunk of gold they call a &quot;dong.&quot; It&#039;s a traditional Korean weight that is about 37 1/2 grams. He quoted me a price of about $780 for it. I was wondering if anyone else who lives (or has lived) in Korea has bought gold or other PM&#039;s here and where the best place to buy was? Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
