<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The_Cave_Troll, post: 772764, member: 1674&quot;]the problem with gold dollars is that they are so small.&nbsp; this makes grading more challenging and it severely limits the number of people who collect them, which accomplishes a couple of things.&nbsp; First it keeps prices down for coins that are fairly scarce (some of the dates), Also it limits the amount of substantive interaction you can have with others working on the same series as you.&nbsp; Finally in a thinner market like these are be aware that when you sell the coins you will likely have a greater buy/sell spread to overcome to break even as the dealer will buy them from you knowing that they will be inventory he carries for some time before selling the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also I know of no dealers who specialize in gold dollars so the search may become challenging.</p><p><br /></p><p>A tough set with some major pitfalls (and some tremendous stoppers if you do the full set), but an interesting one if completed.</p><p><br /></p><p>These coins tend to be unattractive and you should probably avoid the lower mintstate coins.&nbsp; Either shoot for 64 and up or for AU&#039;s.&nbsp; The problem with AU coins is that the later dates didn&#039;t really circulate at all and nice problem free circ coins are tough.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
