<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Evan Saltis, post: 26554476, member: 103066&quot;]My first gold coin was a 1895 half eagle, Liberty Head of course.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was in San Francisco for Witter Coin U 2022, and I had been saving up money for a long time hoping to get gold while I was there.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, gold was $1,800 an oz, and I didn&#039;t think it would go too much higher. But, having my first piece of gold was more important to me. Anyways, I paid $800 for it, not realizing I would have to pay like, 10% - 15% sales tax.</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought I would never, EVER get that money back.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, now that coin melts at over $1000, and, I&#039;ve owned a few more gold coins since then. Nothing for personal collections, but, rather just for quick flips. I did REALLY well on ex-jewelry pieces, and I will post my two favorites here.</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought this as a generic 1843 on a pin at a local pawn shop in Lewiston, Maine.</p><p>Do you see something they didn&#039;t?[ATTACH=full]1692187[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1692188[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a new purchase of mine, ex-jewlery, but just a tad over melt.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1692189[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1692190[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
