[QUOTE="Robert Paul, post: 1783973, member: 34830"]Looks like it was sold at a flea market? I am sorry for the lost but People should know better. Sell/buy Coins at a flea market or pawn shop, plus there has got to be a bunch of other places not to sell at. [B]Buyer/Seller be ware![/B] You must trust your insides, if you own a $20 gold peice and it's about one oz. at $1600.00/oz. then you get $300 cash plus a check from someone you don't know but maybe looks, acts and sweet talks very nice. These few bad people give the whole hobby a bad rap! Please do your homework before you sell away your valuables for [I][U]pennies[/U][/I] on the dollar. Many here should know these answers but.... What do you know about gold? Whats the gold price per oz? How many grams to a oz.? Whats a penny weight? What is a karat? One well advertised place is at $57.00 per pennyweight! whats that mean! OK, 20 pwt per oz 57 x 20 = $1140 per oz buying, Gold at $1600 per oz. Is there something wrong HERE! Do your Homework people! I listen on the radio about people who sold gold to some outfit and got over $4,000 when they were only hoping to get 500 or 600 dollars. Sad to think that John Q. Public has no clue.[/QUOTE]
