Finding Low Premium Gold Coins 

Did you notice the copper spots on the coin? 😬 I can show you how to get rid of them. 👍 Check it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jj5s-UqIbJw.html

Great channel....you have the perfect voice for a channel, precise, clear with great tone 👍

Maple Leafs Are the way to go. Less premium and easier resell

Nice pickup. I’ve been picking up the gold Commemorative’s which no one seems to like for close to spot on EBay. It’s a good way to stack as long as you realize that you are probably only getting spot back when you sell them (at least to an LCS) even in the OGP. Thanks.

Your channel is addicting! ;-)

Very awesome score! haven't bought one yet because of the prices I have found so far.. but I will eventually lol and hopefully in some situation like yours. Maybe if I could find a smaller denomination I would grab that but nothing like that full 1 oz size to enjoy the design, relief, and luster.

The coin never really took off. I remember reading the comments when the mint was asking people what they thought about the different designs. The comments did not favor any of them. Most people seemed to see it as a political SJW attempt at moral posturing, and not a sincere statement.

Thank you, Your Method for Removing Copper Dpot on 24k Coin with Soft Eraser REALLY WORKS!

Recently a couple of coins have caught my eye that do not fit into my current, and sound, stacking strategy. The 2021 St. Helena gold Queen's Virtue's coin (@ about 5.3% over spot) and the 2022 gold Czech Lion coin (@ around 6-7% over spot). Would love your thoughts on deviating from the "safe" path for these two stunning coins at reasonable premiums? 1=0

I thanks for the videos. I am based in the UK and just getting in to gold and they are really useful. I have to ask, where do you get your coin capsules from? I just took delivery of my first 1oz 2021 G Britannia so keen to keep it in good condition. Thanks and I have subscribed.

SD Bullion has a good deal right now on tenth ounce gold Philharmonics. I haven't looked at the tenth ounce coins much bc of the higher premiums, but the price on these caught my eye so I did the math; they're only 10% over spot! I wish I would have noticed sooner 😅 but I wanted to share it here.

Thanks, you have been adding more videos lately, keep it up! I would like to see a video on your thoughts on gold storage and insurance you have on your stacks. I just bought my first coin yesterday, 1 oz gold eagle, and now I am wondering the best way to store it. Another video that would be useful would be the process of selling it to a coin shop or online and the economics involved. From my limited understanding you buy they coin at time period T. The price is Spot@T + Premium + shipping. When you go to sell, you basically get none of the premium back? So the sell price would be Spot@T1, meaning your profit would be Spot@T1 - Spot@T - Premium -Shipping. Having specific examples would be helpful. Thanks!

This is a good tip haha 😂 sometimes these “premium” coins are sold near melt because most average people don’t care for them. Good for us accumulating haha

Hi, I gotta ask. Is there some side to things I’m not understanding when I find coins on ebay sold from well known distributors for these local prices everyone speaks of? Like you can get a krugerrand for $70 over spot on ebay, or a maple for 80-90 over spot right now and britannia’s for like 110 over spot. I am able to find coins on ebay for the equivalent prices you’d pay with wire transfer prices on apmex without a problem. Is there some catch I’m not getting? Same deal on ebay… no tax, no shipping, no insurance on 1oz coins so what am I missing? Yes, the direct websites of these distributors offer more pop up deals but overall I’m unclear otherwise why everyone says you’re getting a better deal at your LCS. The most significant reason to have a relationship locally seems to be if your preference is paying cash, which I can totally understand but if you’re gonna buy online, I’ve yet to see why buying on ebay is so unadvisable. Could you explain this to me?

I don't understand why you dislike $5 US gold commemorative coins because they have 0.24187 oz. of gold. They have the same size, gold amount/purity, and face value of the coins minted in the US when gold half eagles actually circulated. Why anyone would buy less familiar euro coins with really odd gold amounts doesn't make sense.

Ooohh, your American Liberty, my favorite coin. Did find a 1/10 oz, love her. Been looking for the silver, ones I found are really spendy. Nice pick up

do the red spots bother you? have a video about it?

Where can I buy these type of coins? Can you please recommend someone? I'm in Texas.

4 9's and so much off the premium! I've always thought it a good idea to quietly remove whatever bullion away from the Crown.

Nice coins good pick ups keep up the good work👍

Really good information. You are very lucky to have bought the high-relief coin for 80 bucks over spot. I live in Central America and only buy Eagles, Maples or Kruggerands. I am really narrow in my gold coin needs. I wouldn't buy a rooster. Liquidity is a primary concern. The coins go into a private vault box right after purchase and I never touch the coin again until its time to sell. I have no love for gold. Its there for emergency's and also for savings. Only. For now, I am waiting for a dip and when it comes I will buy 2 more Kruggerands. They do the job and will be there when I need them later. By the way, gold has higher premiums where I live. We have to pay for transportation and import taxes. Its still worth it because gold has no reporting requirements. Its the last asset we can own outside of the US that gives us complete privacy. Its a must own asset.

Do you think it would be better to wait for the new U.S. mint 2021 that will have some sort of stamp or marking on it for security purposes

I have to agree the commeritives seem to be some of the cheapest. I bought a few of the 86 Olympic gold coins pretty cheap. It was back when you could get Ebay bucks promotions and use cash back cards so I paid well below spot, but as I recall the base price was something like 2% over spot. Granted you get a weird amount of gold 0.4848 ounces. When investing in a coin I like to seperate out the price from melt. So if melt is 1900 and you pay 2000, you invested 1900 in gold and 100 in coin premiums. That's not to say it's bad to invest in premiums. In the last year silver has double, but as premiums have tripled.

2to1, the AGE you held up, is it a Proof, BU, or Bullion? Your coins look so shiny.

That's a great purchase! Unfortunately sometimes people get jipped with less than stellar LCS, mainly because the few in my radius, dont have competition and know it.

Damn .. I learn a lot ...! Thank you

How much over spot t is your LCS charging for a secondary 1oz gold? (mine is about $60)

One strategy I'm using to avoid the high premiums is to buy $GLD and do a 1031 exchange into physical bullion once the premiums come back to earth. The only physical bullion I've been accumulating currently is platinum.

Like the number 83 and subscribed! Very helpful information and thank you very much for sharing! 👍😎👍

I want 1 of those 225th liberty coins so bad. Im jelly basically

I hate it when you buy from the mint with a huge $500 premium but if you want to sell to a dealer they will only offer spot plus $20 or $50.

I'm only buying bullion now ! I was in the sovereigns and pre 33 but a headache to get accurate grading it was all subjective ! I like pure bars or bullion coins ! I go into the mint !

Great deal man nice pick ups !

Is there an issue if i purchase from apmex from Canada? Thank you from Montreal!

Would you sell or trade your sovereigns in to your local coin shop for American Eagles or Buffalos for liquidity? I think you might lose some value in the process.

I was at a coin auction 1 week ago and bought 1/2 oz gold Saint gauden for 975. High Relief 1 oz Buffalo sold fot 2000. I could of got more deals but had already spent the money I bought. I like auctions. You can't always get a deal, but some times you get lucky and you can get coins for spot or even less.

Low premium is the good stuff for me! That Liberty coin is very pretty. I guess this video was before you started putting quotes in.

I pre ordered an MS70 225th anniversary coin from Apmex before the release. It was the most I've ever paid for a coin however it is my favorite by far. Glad to see it in the green finally too lol

I must not have a good relationship with my lcs because I always find better deals online than what they offer.

I wish I had a local coin shop

So what if you live in Canada .. is Canadian Royal Mint stuff going to be easier to sell .. or is U.S.A stuff easier to sell in Canada too?

What is LCS that you mentioned that you buy from?.

One thing I'm considering is if the price of gold skyrockets, 1 oz is gonna be a ton of money and prob over the 10k paperwork limit. Maybe cheap fractionals is the way to go. I think 1/10 and 1/4 is ideal and 1/2 isn't worth it thoughts?

Call coin shops in your area ,if not possible search the web it's that simple !

That anniversary coin is stunning! totally worth the premium

Would you be kind enough to come back with the main difference between Maple leaf and Buffalo? What was the biggest issue with the Maple? Merci !

Do you keep your ogp and COA somewhere off camera ?

Great coin. Love it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Late to the comments here but how about the Mexican 50 pesos? At 1.2 oz of gold they seem to be offered at very low premiums...

The primary coin shop I buy from charges $50-70 over spot for such coins that come in off the street. I assume they pay melt for everything. I've picked up proofs at the same price. Out of state I just bought two such coins for ~$60 over spot: the Tuvalu Simpson, and an Aussie one with a Chinese dragon. The stuff that dealers hate and can't move is exactly what I'm looking for. If the spot price ever goes up enough to justify selling, I'm not going to care that my stack of eagles brings a slightly higher price. It will mean that conditions have changed dramatically and I will be getting far more $$$ than I paid. In the meantime I get more enjoyment from my collection with such a variety of beautiful coins.

Found low spot American gold eagle today. Got it for $1779 for 1 oz American Eagle with the deal nationwide coin is giving. Instead of paying $1950+ down the road at my coin store

I love the Liberty coin...Waiting for my LCS to get one in. They normally carry a high premium too. Great score.

Good deal unknown stacker. (Unknown to me) I would take that deal any day. Neat video

If the purchase of US mint coins above face value is subject to sales tax in my state, would the tax be considered considered part of the premium? Our sales tax rate is 9.75%.....ouch!

I have the 225th. I picked it up in 2017 and thought I really overspent, but it jas faired very well and worth a lot more than I paid. Great video and Gold stack

There is a reason I only buy bullions not coins. When you sell gold to a local shop, it is all about the gold value. You will be lucky getting 1% above spot selling any of these coins that cost you 5 or 6% above spot.

As someone who began to understand what is going around the world I find myself doing like you and I plan to focus only on stacking gold. But only American coins because I dont want to see Liz's head on my metals

Thoughts on the 5 dollar commemorative 90% gold coins?

I like this guy

I remember buying at $1790 from US Mint

At my local coin shop in Australia, the highest premium coin is the Krugerrand at 13% above spot. Closely followed by the AGE at 12% (but they usually don't have them in stock). The Buffalos are 9%. The Maples and Britannias are 5%. The Australian Kangaroo (aka Nugget) is 4%. The Sovereign has a hefty premium of 12%, but all fractional coins have large premiums. How do these premiums compare with the local coin shops in the U.S, U.K and other countries?

So you pay $80 over spot and its 3%? You need new batteries for your calculator. Say Spot was $2000 when you bought that coin, 80/2000 is 0.04 = 4 % Or do I need new batteries?

Love the rooster ! Cheers!

I could only afford the 2018 Liberty but it is my favorite.

Would you mind share your % estimate over the spot price for fractional gold? I understand that the smaller the fraction, the more the premium you need to pay. But I just do not know how many % you pay over the spot price to considers a fair deal. Thanks.

Reverse is beautiful for sure!

SD BULLION, Money Metals BGASC, Kitco are good

have you ever buy China panda cold coin？

Check out the 2015 American liberty 🤩

You got it cheap due to copper marks and the fact that for some reason the African American Liberty is not very popular. I, however, love it, really want one and think you got a fantastic deal as you get the enjoyment of a proof for a bullion price. Nice work!

I agree with you.. I have the 1 oz 225th anniversary gold coin and its smaller counterpart the 1/10 oz .. It is a very well struck nice looking coin... I think the reason for its low premium is it is/was viewed as a controversial coin (first black woman image) The mint has not been able to sell its remaining mintage... If they don't melt them down hopefully they will lower the premium ..

I never had trouble selling roosters but I only ask spot. 4 ducat has less premium. Love 20 francs of all countries.

Low premium coins are better for investment.

How would people that pay a premium on coins think to make money from selling these coins? Simple, these people would probably also sell their coins also with a premium! And that's how people handle and react to buying coins! It's probably the going price of coins now, after the sellers sells the coins at a premium.

I have that Liberty gold coin and the 2018 1/10oz in my stack. My favorite gold coin by far!

That liberty is very nice

That 2017 American Liberty gold coin is gorgeous 👍 I’m looking for one but the US Mint price is too high for me so I’m holding off until I can get it at a reasonable price.

I wish I Had a LCS around. Nothin within 100 miles

You basically buy whats popular in your country as its recognised and you have less trouble saling it

I saw a 1984 olympic commemorative gold coin for dirt cheap like 25 plus spot. You are right. The lesser known coins sell for lower premium compared to age buff maple etc. Also I'm not a fan of that 225 liberty aesthetically. Pre 33 eagles buffs and krugs look way better. Still au is au.

Bro that liberty is fire.

I like SD Bullion

I’m going to bite the bullet and get both the 1oz and 1/10oz I Love This Coin couldnt believe a coin beat the Buffalo

Wow

I need your LCS here in Wisconsin.

Love me the buffalos but I love me low premiums too 😂

Must depend a lot on which country your in. You have problems moving sovereigns. If your in australia they may be the most liquid gold coin that exists

That the 125th anniversary coins are still available from the mint show how unpopular they are. I did a short video on it, and I wonder if that has a direct affect on what you thing the real value is if you have a real unpopular coin, even if it is low mintage.

And don't forget they're tasty too 😋. Chicken stew 🔥

Just got a 1/2oz gold for 1k even. AGE. 1/2oz gold.

Amazing deal on 2017 coin

Do you have to produce photo ID to buy gold in the US. as a UK stacker it's a pain in the but sometimes driving license passport Exc.great video again keep up the good work.

I have heard of several people from other countries say that their country only accepts 0.999 and up type of gold. Not even the AGE. So I'm trying to say with .999 and up

The 100 corona is usually a lower premium than that online. I can see the appeal of a US coin but if LCS only pay melt I don’t see the point of paying up for it vs foreign.

I'm surprised there's even any positive premium on that uggo 2017 wewuz coin...

The fact that you do not know about it does not mean it does not have a value.. that is a bit....basic

Sweet, got a 1/10 Liberty reverse proof for $230. I would go for all sizes of that gorgeous design.

Ładne monety :)

The best most liquid gold coin in the world with the lowest premium is the 22 karat South African Krugerrand.

American Buffalo is just ugly, and Ealge has silver which is bad idea. That's why those coins are not so popular in Poland. Krugerrand, Leaf, Kangaroo and Filharmonic judge here.
