<p>[QUOTE="Gilbert, post: 3085655, member: 73104"]On March 16, 2009 I purchased a 2006-W $50 Gold Buffalo NGC PF-69 Ultra Cam for $1125 when the spot price of gold was $923. The premium in this case was about 22% over spot. Recent realized auction prices at flea bay for similar coins are in the $1430 range, meaning an 11% premium over spot. Could my return on investment been better had I purchased a piece strictly for the bullion content? Possibly. Worth mentioning is I do not know what PF-70 examples were fetching at the time, so can't do a comparison. Bottom line for me was purchasing a certified example of an attractive coin with a classic design, and very little to do with investing in gold.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
