[QUOTE="Brett_in_Sacto, post: 2523274, member: 71510"]I think these are all "your mileage may vary" questions. For someone with lots of volume, there are high premiums on the fractionals. Coins almost always get a premium - at least US coins. A lot has to do with what kind of outlet you have and your exit strategy. If you plan to take them to a "cash for gold" it won't matter. They'll offer you a percentage of spot no matter what it is. Coins have a restricted market as far as premiums are concerned. Cash 4 Gold will buy it, but rarely pay a premium. Ebay has good sales numbers, but high fees that eat into the profit. As I said in the beginning, your mileage may vary. As with most things, cost plays a significant role. While you may not pay a premium on a 1 kilo bar of gold - and get it very close to spot - finding a buyer that wants an entire kilo is VERY difficult. Even "Cash 4 Gold" probably doesn't have $42k in cash on hand to give you (and they'd have to do some paperwork to pay you anyways). 1ozt gold bars are probably the best balance. Consider your market - who's going to buy it and what kind of cash would you expect?[/QUOTE]
