[QUOTE="Fool 4 Gold, post: 258203, member: 9694"]Thank you for the comment. Perhaps I should restate my question since it was not so clear. Q. Compared to the US, other Foreign Countries coins do seem to be so heavily graded. The graded coins in the US are much more the norm to attempt to establish the pricing standard I mentioned. So, why are the coins I mentioned so cheap being in the "RAW" state? It sems to me you can get a greater content by mass in gold by buying the 20 Franc or Sovereign coins rather than the American Bullion coins. Does this make sense? Also do you think that Foreign Countries will follow the US in Grading practices to establish some numismatic appeal to the coins I mentioned? Is there official mintages available on these coins? From a collector standpoint, why would I add these into my collection? In your opinion, what is the difference in the US bullion -vs- the other coins I mentioned? Would you consider these all as just common gold bullion with "0" numismatic value? Is there any way of estimating the surviving population of these bullion coins? Thank you in advance for your help.[/QUOTE]
