Some follow bullion prices such as cleaned, holed or bent ones and other common date problem free coins do hold a premium over melt. You can compare melt prices from coinflation to ended ebay auctions for common year gold coins to get a good idea on such premiums.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. This is a pretty subjective question. For a common date gold coin, don&#039;t pay a premium for XF just because it is graded. When you get to the MS+, then you might start to se numismatic value driving the price beyond its normal premium.</p><p><br /></p><p>3. Any size is fine. It really comes down to personal preference. The smaller the coin ($1, $2.50) the higher the difference you will see from bullion value to premium value. If you mostly after the gold content and just want the history, I would try to get a $10 or $20 if it is within your budget.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope that helps and if you have anymore questions, ask away![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
