Message:: [QUOTE="TDRismyname, post: 1001763, member: 26939"]Anyway the buyback price for my $100 eagle is 1680 w/o PCGS... with it it's something like 1800-1900 @ MS-69. MS-70 it's like 3k. The rating definitely adds substantial value, and if you get lucky (first  strike, error, MS-70) it can double the value. That's why I decided to go coin instead of bullion, yesterday I bought the only 2005 MS-69 1/10th oz $10 Pt. Eagle for 228, and they only minted 5000 of those coins... prob why apmex only had 1. Weirdly I've searched and one site says they minted 16,100.... another says 5000... and no I'm not confusing proofs and monetary coinage, they had seperate proof listings. Regardless, I'm wondering how long it will take for that coin to become super-rare. Maybe after the next platinum peak half or more will be assayed... I can only hope. That's a long term investment.... a coin minted in '05 that's already very rare. If I could find an '05 -w or MS-70.... IDK it could be worth 1k easy... the combo would be worth 5x more! Also, do you think it's better to invest in pre-1933 gold or stick to modern stuff.... I've been buying MS-70 silver 1oz pandas just  because I've seen these coins go for 1k 5 years later. IDK what's up with modern silver MS-70 pandas, they're worth they're weight in gold or more and they were made a few years ago! Crazy stuff.[/QUOTE]
