[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 4022640, member: 112"]When it comes to common date gold, raw or slabbed, the smaller the denomination the more you're gonna pay for numismatic value. This is an example of what I mean - Your best value is to buy the larger denomination coins. $20 gold, already slabbed and graded as high as 63 and 64 in some cases, can usually be purchased for about 10% over melt. Same for raw examples. But the thing is, even if the coins are VF, slabbed or raw, the cost is the same - purely because of the gold content. And yeah, for the budget minded a $20 gold piece is a big nut to crack. So are the $10 gold pieces, and they have a higher percentage over spot. But it's often an easier pill to swallow than paying $200 for $75 worth of gold. And by the way, if you decide to go the $1 gold direction, make sure you only buy slabbed as fakes abound with $1 gold ![/QUOTE]
