<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1249057, member: 22143&quot;]When I posted that, gold had traded at $1876.&nbsp;&nbsp; Though I didn&#039;t buy there, go look at the premium on a 1 ounce AGE or Buffalo on Ampex or any of the other on-line dealers.&nbsp;&nbsp; You will be shocked.&nbsp; It&#039;s&nbsp; ~$100 now.&nbsp; &nbsp; Apmex simply states its due to what they are being charged.&nbsp; I am of the opinion, there is simply a shortage of 1 ounce coins and the wholesalers are charging the dealers top prices for supplies.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I actually like to surf available MS69 &amp; PF69 slabbed coins for deals and stumbled across one the day before that cost close to spot so I picked it up.&nbsp; Bullion investors often overlook these coins but gold is gold.&nbsp; Dealers will often sell these lower rated coins at far less premium over bullion.&nbsp; It doesn&#039;t matter to me if it is slabbed or not.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;ll leave it in the slab for now but wouldn&#039;t have any issues with cutting it out if it makes it easier to sell.&nbsp; Oh and it had the added bonus of a W mint marked buffalo that was selling for less money than the bullion version simply because it had been slabbed.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
