Smaller Fractional Gold Coins Again

- I've always thought of small gold coins (fractional gold coins) as being way over-priced in terms of premium. But, I'm seeing some better deals lately. Is the 1/10th oz gold coin a legitimate option for stacking? I just picked up a 1/10oz American Gold Eagle, and I kind of like it. 😁

Compared to silver, Gold spot price has never been a biggie, Beautiful coins! $20 over spot, that's 2 Jamba juice's and we know were the ends up? Great video!
Ha - that's funny! Thanks for watching!
That’s some great perspective right there!
First year of stacking and I picked up 4oz with varying fractional of 1oz, 1/4 oz, 1/10, and 1g. I think from now on I'll stick to quarter and halves with the option to convert to a whole 1. Thank you for your content, I've been binging it.
That's great! And, thanks for watching!
Only just got over an ounce of gold finally!
Been buying a 1/4oz every two months, but my first was a 1/10 before I knew much a bout them haha.
Will now save up a couple months, either for a 1/2oz or a full oz.
That’s great - nice work!
Liberty coin has had good prices. Nationwide coins had the 1/10th gold AGEs at spot deal for a while before running out.
Thanks for the video bud, looking forward to the next one.
Wow. I need to watch them closer! Thanks!
@@2is1gold i just ordered a 1 oz gold AGE for $1875...it’s a legit site too. I’ve ordered from them before. It’s a one time thing; limit 1 coin per household, ever. The only thing is they have been known to hound people later on with marketing calls/junk mail but hey, I simply block the number and toss the mail away.
I bought a 10-peso gold coin from them for a good low price (actually, via their eBay store). Recently I had about $5.50 eBay bucks so visited Liberty and bought a 1/10-oz silver Libertad, final price $5.46, I think. Free postage. I'm glad to add them to the other trusted vendors I check out when I'm in the mood to buy something shiny 😊😎😁 Oh, and I picked up a 1/4-oz gold US Mint Apollo 11 commemorative (with box and COA) from portsmouthcoinshop.com/ for a price I thought was good. Daniel hasn't had any more since, but of course it depends on what people bring in to sell to him (CoinHELPu on TH-cam)
@@ticktology Cowboy Gold did the same. I’m on the fence.
Went to a coin show today and scored a 1/10 age for 205.
Nice!
They running about $230 in Los Angeles.
@@zzygyy I'm normally there at least once a month, but travel has been...hard.
The last AGE 1/10 I bought, locally on March 10, was $170. No AGEs since then for me, and I am very hesitant to spend much more than that on anything... though lately there isn't much choice, so figuring out how much gold is actually in a coin or round can mean I'm saving a bit of money. Maybe I'll check my LCS on election day since city buses will be free 😊 I'll call first to see if he's even open.
They're just so tiny, I have a couple 1/10 but for me the 1/4 is the smallest AGE I like to buy.
Yeah. I'll only buy them in between. Other than some lunars I've bought for my kids in the past, I've never been interested in them. Moving mostly out of silver has probably contributed to me taking another look. Cheers!
I purchased 1/10oz from 2013-2020 1 a month lot of them under $150:00 at the time I think I made my money back 🤑🤑🇺🇸💪🏽🇺🇸
Nice!
I’d like a tube of 1/10th for the long haul. I expect premiums to be higher not lower on these the next time we see a metal crunch. For the first three months after the lockdown started you couldn’t find fractional gold anywhere
I could find quarters but nothing else. Now I can find everything _but_ quarters. Totally agree, though. Having some fractional is good!
My favorite local dealer always has some gold at "melt" for sale. It varies each week. Today, I bought a 1999 1/10 oz gold Maple for $190.00! Last week it was a .1867 20 Franc for $355.000. Gold at "melt" is the simplest way to purchase.
That’s great. No deals like that around here!
@@2is1gold I am VERY fortunate to have a local dealer who is more than fair with pricing. I stopped buying from on line dealers to buy local. NO bracket pricing to contend with. Silver Eagles $3.00-$4.00 over spot as well. Constant turn over of his inventory which keeps new and old items coming in. I shop weekly.
@@kevinw9073 I'm jealous.
Have plenty 1l10 eagles from 2018 $130 to $147 purchases.
I can't hardly read the smaller ones but I still enjoy buying them.
I don’t even try. Didn’t even know what year it was until I posted this video! 🤣
I take a picture of my tenth oz coins and than zoom to see the date! Getting older sucks!
@@floridastacker those magnification loupes seem like a really good option for branded swag! 😁
Magnification Loop app on my phone. Works great.
@@syzygysyzygy8332 brilliant!
The fact that you notice the coin is beat up is the same reason I avoid beat up coins. I want to be able to sell to you one day, and if you don't want beat up coins, then I don't want beat up coins. Spot on (no pun) on recouping the premiums on the fractional. Hopefully your kids will have a guiding instrument to let them know what that shiny little coin is, ha! Well at least you're teaching them correctly. Nice work, dad. We are cut from the same mind-changing cloth.
It’s somewhat alarming how quickly I forget the message of a video - had to rewatch this one. I definitely pick up coins I think will be very easy to sell. And I think it’s more likely that my kids will be the ones doing the selling. Thanks, Vert!
You can still get that 1oz AGE from Nationwide Coin and Bullion Reserve for $1875. I got mine in 8 days of placing my order.
Thanks! You deleted that video. I went back to find it.
@Cowboy Gold
I hope you have good sense and discontinue dealing with that company. Reviews are very well worth reading as the company has an apparently well deserved reputation for fraud, lying, cheating and other unethical practices.
@@1redrubberball that was not my experience.
@@thinkforyourself9311 Sure, not yet!
@@1redrubberball you just worry about yourself.
In 2020 ... everything is relative. $20 over spot is a deal. ⭐️
I remember walking to the LCS uphill both ways to get 1oz gold coin for $40 over spot! 👴 😁
@@2is1gold LOL!!!
Extremely useful info and video . You express yourself very well . Thank you !
Thank you!
I picked up a 1/10 AGE from my LCS. I kept it a few weeks and sold it private party for a few reasons: 1) high premiums 2) too small 3) you have remove it from the capsule to check it with a Precious Metal Verifier
I can see the appeal but just not right for me.
Yeah, I can see that. I’m not going to be choosing these guys over anything else. They’re an add-on to me.
I bought a 50 pesos coin a couple weeks ago. I wanted to buy an ounce & they were the best value plus I've never owned one. Even though i'll likely get a restrike I get a strange sense of pleasure by owning an old gold coin plus there are certainly one of the most beautiful coins ever made.
I'd be completely fine with a restrike. The two in the shops right now look like they came out of a cash register! 😁
If You want bargain shopping with enough budget, 1oz is way to go.. mainly I stack 1oz. 1/10 oz just too small for me and barely can see the date on it.. just personal opinion though
I didn't know the date until I posted this video! 😁I definitely shoot for 1oz or 1/4oz typically. But these might be fun.
I like fractional gold.. because like you said,it doesn't make my wife as mad as purchasing a whole oz would.. Happy Wife, Happy Life..
Oh!! Great one ! Thank you !
The small ones are definitely commanding a premium both ways (buying and selling) 👍 can’t really go wrong with them, and more liquid than the full ounce for the normal guy. I still can’t get myself to pick up the 1/10 😣 it looks big on videos and photos, but it’s so small when I see it in-person... I’m now even thinking the 1/4 oz is on the small size now that I’m checking out my 1/4 oz Queen’s beasts. Now the 1/2 ounce looks and feels good. I got a couple and I like them!
You've been playing with that 100oz block of silver 😁 but they're definitely small. That's almost part of the fun. I don't even have enough silver to fill two tubes right now, so fractional is becoming more important.
@@2is1gold LOL! You're right! I think my frame of reference has shifted... 😅 Everything is small compared to the 100 oz bar!
I've got an embarrassing amount of tenth oz. Yes it's expensive way to stack, but I have it. I prowl ebay auctions for decent deals
Fractionals are really handy. Sure, you pay a chunk over spot so i only buy them in the dips but they are what i call my travel coins. I like qtrs.
When im on business abroad i always carry a couple, that way it'ss instant cash to tide me over until whatever drama has arisen sorts itself. It's a trick i learned in the military and never forgot.
I like that idea.
All I have is small gold coins and I love them. I can get the pre 33 $2 1/2 gold pieces at me LCS for close to spot. I do have one 1/10oz gold eagle but it’s a proof so it’s more of a numismatic coin. And I like going to the coin shop often so I don’t think I could wait long to save up and buy a full oz
My LCS will typically move $2.50 gold coins close to spot as well, but that means they never have them when I show up! 😁
Same here my LCS is pretty small too so... he usually runs out before I get there. But I have gotten some
Those 50 pesos coins are nice and the Mexican mint is not making any more this year 🤔🤔. They have a comforting heft to them in the hand.
Yeah, they're heavy suckers!
Hard to find bargains on those 1/10 oz, but whenever the price is right I will take it!
They’re too popular! I really only recently started paying attention. Didn’t realize how big of a swing in price they have!
A happy wife is a happy life.
It is satisfying buy some gold over no gold or waiting to buy.
Not that there is anything wrong with waiting.
And if you need a little cash you can sell one or two smaller denomination coins with out liquidating an entire ounce.
It's the truth! 😀
bargain hunting for Gold AGEs is never a bad thing 👏👏👏
Now if we could set up group buys! 😁
Great video again have learned a lot from your channel . If you could have just one coin what would you pick .
1oz American Gold Buffalo. The Eagle is the better pick since it’s more liquid/popular, but I like the 24K coins for the long run. In the US, the best 24K coin is the Buffalo. Thanks!
Spot price is still 1800 two years later.
Those Mexican 50 pesos are a nice looking coin but are really expensive since they’re around 1.2 AGW. I have a few of the 20 peso coins which I like because they have the nice very detailed Mayan calendar on them, and are just under a half ounce (0.4823 AGW). Besides the lower cost the premium is also a lower percentage of the value than it is on the 50’s. I’ve had mine for a couple years now so they were a lot cheaper when I got them, but I see them online now for around $1000.
Yeah, maybe a good option. Thanks for watching!
Actually you got me thinking about possibly buying some gold again. So I was poking around on eBay last night I noticed APMEX actually had a 1/10 ounce gold Libertad, It’s very similar to the design of the 50 peso but of course not exactly the same. You might consider one of those as a more affordable alternative.
i will save up a bit more to buy 1 oz gold coin... becos it's cheaper and much lower premiums... these premiums add up... at the end of the day... we can buy another 1-2 coins for that accumulated premiums.
Yeah, that’s the smart play. This is just a little something on the side. 😂 Buying with fun coupons!
We need to think for the future, when gold price doubles in the next years, then the 1ounce cost 4-5000$ allready. Not so easy for to find a buyer ...
The quarter will be bout 1000.- the 1/10 bout 4-500...., easy to sell.
Had to subscribe the other day. Definitely a great choice keep it up
Hey, thanks! I appreciate that!
Yess come to the camp hahaha the 1/10oz is very cool but you need to be a hawk to find the deal lol let’s keep going !
We’ll see how it goes! Fun to find gold you can buy with walking around money, though! 😁
@@2is1gold yess thats exactly !! Couldn’t say it any better myself !
try Swiss 20 franks, or Austria 1 ducat soverines
Just ordered 2 quarter ounce Maples. Very excited!!!
Nice!
@@2is1gold I am up to 2 one ounce eagles a one half ounce eagle I am saving for a one ounce Maple and I feel like I'm off to a good start! Love the videos and you turned me on to the Maples!!
That’s great. You’re looking at the right coins!
I guess it’s about time I start looking into gold instead of just of occasional Morgan. I like your recommendation in a recent video to look at 1/4 or 1/2 if I don’t decide to just get a straight ounce. I assume your recommendation would be just get a straight ounce? Thanks my friend.
1oz has the lowest premium, but I still like 1/4oz to dollar cost average. I think spot could go down yet this year. Cheers!
I picked up a few 1/10 eagles for $210. :)
Nice! I was surprised to find that. Maybe it's not so rare!
@@2is1gold Apmex and others have them for $230++ plus tax. I’ve been recently buying from other stackers and I have some connections with jewelers.
I agree 👍 but would you buy into generic 1/10 gold rounds?
I don't buy gold rounds, personally. My LCS has had a few recently.
Yup. I buy whatever my weekly budget allows. Usually 1/4oz Au or 10g-20g PT
90% AG too 👌🏼. Eagle premiums are just too high for me these days..
You’re buying 1/4s weekly or monthly?
@@2is1gold sometimes weekly, sometimes monthly. Depends on available cash & what deals I come across. Mostly buying on coin groups via Facebook since tax laws changed in Oct 2018
@@sanpedrosilver that’s good that you can find them. The reason I was asking about weekly buys is that 1oz purchases are so much easier here all of a sudden. Quite a bit cheaper and much better selection right now.
@@2is1gold I wish I could cough up 2k as easily as I can $500. I guess I prefer more regular purchases vs saving for a few weeks/month. I know I’m paying a bit more but it keeps me more involved and I get a lot more deliveries throughout the month.
Always enjoy the vids! Thx
Aren’t they so cute! Hero bullion and bullion exchanges is best also liberty coin on eBay and pinehurst coin
Haven’t looked at Hero before. I’ll check them out. Thanks!
@@2is1gold yea hero is really good and packages stuff really nicely and shipping is fast too. Selection is kinda small but their prices are super competitive
@@LucyStacks thanks for the tip!
$20 over is a deal worth jumping on.👍
The extra in premiums for a happy wife is a easy choice.
Totally - Gold to Happy Wife Ratio! 😁
@@2is1gold
I was just doing the math... Premiums at $20 on 1/10oz gold is under $2.58 on silver.
20$ over spot is really an awesome deal.. Haven't been seeing such deals online, are these the prices you are getting at your LCS ?
@@silverdude2053 yeah, LCS. I saw them for $30 over at SDBullion recently.
I have my secrets to get 1/4oz and 1/2oz AGEs cheaper than you can get them anywhere. However, I won't share that information because I don't want any competition. By telling you my secrets would make you my competitor and I already have enough competition as it is.
Well, you already told me. I just have to do a little extra digging! 😂
I just started picking up Mexican mint dos pesos little 1.6 gram coins. They're beautiful coins and about as low as I would go right around 1/20th and she's slightly smaller...but there's just something about them...they're really cool coins so I think I'm going to keep collecting those and then / what I've said before to you.... I definitely am going to be starting to collect 1/4 ounce American gold eagles. I think that's what I'm going to do....some 1/10 ouncers from different mints....some dos pesos cuz I like them and it's kind of nice to buy something that costs only 96 bucks for 1.6 grams of gold!!! LOW PREMIUM!!!!
keep STACK-ATACKING STACK-A-LACK-ACK-ACKIN
B Mack Daddy from Cincinnati out!!!
I see Fish (Inefficient Stacker) piling those dos pesos to the ceiling, and it looks like fun. I'd have to buy them online, though. I never see them locally. Thanks for the comment!
Awesome strategy friend! keep stacking!
1/10 ounce eagles. I call them baby eagles. They are cute.
Buy some when they are available.
BABY EAGLES! 😁
$2300 too rich for me as well💛😎👍.
For a dinged up coin from the 80s! 😄
If you put the 1/10th oz coins in the capsules they feel bigger lol!
Definitely!
My strategy exactly. I call it the poor mans gold.
I thought silver was poor man’s gold! 😂
My 1/10 Kook is a favorite; lots of detail for a little guy. For me, the 1/4oz AGE is the sweet spot. Buying fractional might save you a fracture with the wife!
Cash purchases are invisible to the tax man. Small cash purchases are invisible to my bride! 😁
I buy all sizes... all countries all fineness... 😁
And it’s very cool. I can’t operate that way, though. I had a room full of LEGO bricks separated by color, size, etc. until “my son” outgrew them! 😆
That's like the most I can afford or a Mexican 2 1/2 peso
Hopefully you will share those bargains if you find them...
Will do!
2 is 1, this is not related to gold but you have a great voice
Hey, thank you! Tell that to the guy who says I sound like Steve Buscemi! 🤣
@@2is1gold if you did, you wouldn’t ever have to tip! 😂
You'll want at least 20 to fill your capsule tube
Also, I have (60) x AGEs that I bought at $125/Each & (20) x Maples I bought at $120/Each, Thinking of selling to replace with 1oz pieces and take my profit...
Gah...maybe. 😁
i thought i dialed someone at the start of the video.
I wonder how many people dropped off the video in the first 5 seconds! 🤣
Haha u love em! Lol
We’ll say, I *like* them. 😂
What is your opinion regarding trading slabbed graded gold coins, i.e, Liberty Indians, etc. for gold bullion coins? In other words from collector to stacker.
I've done it.
I’ve done it too but not nearly at the level as Cowboy. I’m not much on collector value, so I want as much intrinsic value as possible. The trick was finding the right broker for the trade.
@@thinkforyourself9311 I guess the trick is to sell or trade on the dips on spot, since collector coins still have a premium.
