<p>[QUOTE=&quot;alexthebold, post: 1707413, member: 50759&quot;]I realize that it&#039;s a lot like asking &quot;How long is a piece of string,&quot; but responders can feel free to ramble. </p><p><br /></p><p>Controlling for outlier conditions (i.e., the economy hasn&#039;t collapsed, the dollar hasn&#039;t just been devalued, terrorists haven&#039;t stolen the Statue of Liberty, it&#039;s just an ordinary, run-of-the-mill day in the world), if you were to walk into a dealer (or go online) with a 2013 American Silver Eagle and a 2013 American Gold Eagle, with spot prices (I&#039;m gonna keep it simple) for silver and gold of $100 and $1,000 an ounce respectively, what would be a fair offer to both sides, as a percentage of the current spot price? </p><p><br /></p><p>Obviously, there are other factors -- coin&#039;s age, condition, etc., but just assume perfectly ordinary coins. Say you walk in with a 2013 gold eagle in pristine condition. And one that someone HAD to touch and then dropped into a running garbage disposal. And one that they ran through the washing machine because &quot;it looked a little dingy&quot;? And say you had the exact same trio of 1965 gold sovereigns AND 1978 Canadian maples.</p><p><br /></p><p>And a similar set-up for silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
