I won the 1/10 ounce gold eagle that I bought for the coin club dinner raffle. I Only bought 10 tickets @ $5ea. Gold for under spot.
I'll leave it for the grandkids to decide when they sell...my decision is whether to continue invest in rare gold or bullion
Great looking coin with a solid AU55, as far as it being a good investment? As long as you can sell it for more than you paid for it, you did alright.
Long thread here, I picked up this half eagle the other day simply cause it's an 1849, gold rush year and I had the money. Now I'm tapped out so it'll be awhile before I can buy gold again at today's prices for sure!
Consider your gold coins pieces of art....you enjoy them, the future returns (if anything) are inconsequential....your kids or grandkids will liquidate a bank account or stock or bond holdings....but they might keep a gold coin that you leave them for decades, remembering fondly about you as they reminisc. Nobody is reminiscing about a stock or bond mutual fund !! That's where gold kicks ass !
Recently purchased 1991 1/2 oz American gold eagle. Mintage of only 24,100 and the key date for the entire series.
