[QUOTE="The Half Dime, post: 25549024, member: 153164"]That's quite odd with a denomination of $350, but I believe that gold was around $300/oz at the time. I've never seen one of those coins before, and they are sure cool! I think I screwed up a bit. Mainly what I meant was that it seems to be quite famous with bullion investors as the current purest gold on the market. I see what you mean. I have seen on eBay where tens of thousands of Eagles in the 1 oz and 1/10 oz sizes have sold, but the quarter and half ounces are kind of left in the dust. Recently when I got my first A.G.E, (2015 1/10 oz) it was a great feeling, especially considering that there is an awesome market for them. That and I only had to cough up about a $12 premium. Hopefully that boss is a friendly one. LOL, "stack on" would be the words you would want to hear from her! That's a good point, especially when it comes to small gold piece premiums. I once owned an 1843 $2.50 gold piece (likely an O, but possibly a D or C because of the small date) that I got for a low premium. If it weren't for the premiums, I would've owned another one by now, mainly because that gold coin I had has been sold for a long time. I see quite a bit of gold in 3 nines fine as well as 4. A lot of the big bullion makers craft their bars of .9999, but one in particular, named Benchmark, makes those small bars as low as 1/4 grain, with .999 purity. The "coin" is likely gold-plated, but is advertised like it is pure. If you've seen the advertisement on YouTube, it's easy to see right through their "news report", as the guy talking doesn't synchronize with the audio.[/QUOTE]
