Gold Coin Winners and Losers - Which is the Best Deal?
Рет қаралды 27,106
Жыл бұрынWhich gold coins are the best deal in terms of purchase price and buy back price? The buy to sell spread will show you the cost to buy vs the price you get in a sale, ultimately telling you what the best deal is. I'll show the math in this one. There are other considerations as well making some of the choices better regardless of the math.

Agreed. This is why I call this channel, "The Adult Gold & Silver Channel". No whining, no sniveling, no end of the world, and no one pushing PMs to buy from them, etc. Yes, there is a sponsor of the channel but from what I have seen over the past couple of years, 2is1 has integrity and it is NOT for sale. The sponsorship is simply a business deal and one of the better ones, without compromise. That I deal primarily with that sponsor also does not hurt. 😉

Insurance has a premium no matter what, whether its Allstate or Gold. Bullion dealers and higher volume coin shops are ruled by the refiners they sell to. What they pay you for a bar or coin is determined by what they can get for it. If you're willing to pay a premium on all the things you buy in life, the premium on precious metals seems minute.

Thanks Michael! I've done it a few times (and made a few videos). It's a funny topic, though. People come out of the woodwork to charge the hill. Some of them have pitchforks and torches. The part most don't like is that dealers typically factor in premium whether they itemize it or not. You don't trade along the ratio. You sell your silver to them and buy the gold from them, paying premiums twice. If you're okay with that part, it's pretty easy. Cheers!

So just as a math exercise, currently spot is 1946 1oz eagle at jm bullion is 2058 Difference is $112 112/2058= .054 So in this example, its an even better deal since its 5.4% instead of the example 6%, assuming my math exercise is correct

1/4 - 1/10 Britannia and Krugerrand are my favourite. I accept I pay a higher premium for fractional but I like that I don't need to sell 1oz of gold if I ever need some cash. And I don't know if this is true or not but I believe shops/people are more "willing" to buy smaller fraction of gold because the potential buyer pool is much larger if we're talking about a 200-500 coin compared to a 2000 coin. So I have hope that I'll get some of the premium back when selling it.

It's like property investment. You have taxes and maintenance out the door. Hold long term and maintain is the only way to realize a profit. The difference with property is that you can make improvements during the holding period that could help long-term gains but may not. The maintenance and taxes of a property could be compared to safe handling and secure storage of your metals... Either way, there's investor/flippers, long term holders, dealers/agents, and then there's the people who use every dime to get something and hold it for life if they are able.

I like the Maples because I live in a northern state where Canadian coins are quite common. I also like the AGEs quite a bit and would sell them last during hard times.

I live very close to the Canadian border, and their quality and security features make the U.S. Mint's look like the joke that they are. Besides, at a slightly lower price than Eagles or Buffalos, I could also pick up a little silver for the same total amount as for just those, and that doesn't seem like a bad thing.

When I started, dealers would break them out of the assays to run acid tests on them. That left them with non-assayed, second-hand bars that were hard to sell, so they weren't popular with buyers and their buy-back prices were really low. Today, most dealers have high-end scanners and can test pretty easily. Popularity hasn't caught up yet, probably because the U.S. Mint doesn't produce bars. But I'm more open to them now than I was when I started. I just haven't had a big reason to jump yet. Cheers!

I think for most people, buying what's easiest to sell is the best plan. Like you point out, Commems aren't widely available or widely understood (i.e., popular). I have a local dealer who sells $5 Commems for fire sale prices unless he has a line of people wanting them at any given time. He's said before that he doesn't like the odd size for inventory purposes, so he sells a handful of coins for a point or two over spot. There's probably more than that going on, but he sells Roosters, Sovereigns, Commems, etc. that way. His buy back on those options, though, is terrible - 5% or more back of spot last time I checked. It was worse pre-2020. My concern would be how they'd sell in a time gold wasn't hot. They're for people with a specific plan. Cheers!

Do you continue to purchase 1/4 oz coins? I appreciate that it is a great option for people who want to make regular, frequent purchases, but I just have not gone that route. I exclusively have one ounce coins. Even when spot prices take a dip, I choose to wait until I have the funds to make a one ounce purchase. I don't have anything against fractional gold, it's just a better value for the full ounce so I choose to wait.

Those LIMITS on the sale...max 25 ozt Maple, Krug, $1000 Constitutional Silver, 1K of Silver bars, 1 Kilo of Gold, before the 1099 form is triggered. I've ALWAYS been confused on the TIME FRAME to those limits on selling AND buying. Same type of question I have when buying. I'm told to remain UNDER the$10K cash before triggering a report that has to be filed. Are these limits on buying AND selling, on a per transaction basis? On a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly basis. Is that a lifetime limit on selling? I've never got a clear answer, even from my LCS.

It is a smart buy provided you are not in a hurry to sell them. Coin shops prefer silver and fractional gold.

Jefferson, Jackson, Van Buren, Buchanan proofs have great designs, not many 9999 1/2oz coins have been minted by the US. Saving big time on premiums way leas than half ounce eagles. Bonus they all have very low mintages.

I always check with local shops to get their take on what they'd buy the item for. My local shops are more open to them now than they were four years ago (probably because of new scanning equipment). I still prefer coins because private buyers are more comfortable with what they recognize / feel is authentic. Cheers!
