[QUOTE="Mark Feld, post: 695881, member: 11467"]BNB, since I said I was through trying to help you, please consider this post as anything other than an attempt to help.;) I am confused about your purchase of this coin. And not just because I thought you had said you were only going to buy certified coins and weren't going to buy off of Ebay. When you first started posting here, you indicated that you wanted to buy coins as an investment. And granted, when you buy a gold coin of this type for as little as possible over spot, that is, in essence an investment. But it is an investment in gold, not rare coins. So why not buy a pure bullion coin, at much closer to spot, instead? My guess is that you like the design of the Saint Gaudens $20 (I know that I and many others certainly do), which means there is a collecting bone or two in your body. And if you are buying as a collector, why not spend roughly 10% more for a much better/nicer example of a coin that you appreciate? Anyway, whether you are collecting, investing or both, best of luck and enjoyment to you.[/QUOTE]
