<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 1310108, member: 13650"]Yeah, as someone else stated, with gold at $1700/oz, you won't find much in that price range, let alone anything special. The closest thing I could think of to meet your criteria would be a common, 1/10 American Gold Eagle. But all of those I've seen lately are going for $200. Somebody was selling a bunch of them on the selling forums here not too long ago. Don't know if they sold them all. Tell them your story and maybe they might give you a deal on one. Some people who have a lot of these got them for $30 to $50 a piece a while back. So they might have a little wiggle room on profit. Whether they're willing to or not for you is another story. </p><p><br /></p><p> BTW, this time if he decides he still wants to carry it, I"d recommend putting it in a plastic air-tite holder. This will increase the size making it a little less easier to lose and fully protect it from wear. I've got a zip up pocket in my walllet. I carry a Morgan silver dollar in an air-tite that was my grandfather's and a 1882-S $5 gold Liberty in an air-tite just for fun. They can't fall out. I carry my wallet in my front pocket as well.</p><p><br /></p><p> Good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
