Agree 100% on the fractional gold. I do buy the 1/10 right now, just to reach my goal of an ounce of them. Usually I buy the fractional bars. I always buy them in assay. Little more cost, but that is assuring to a potential buyer. 1 gram up to 5 gram is what I buy. The bigger gold is for opportunity in a SHTF scenario. I live in a rural area in the deep south, during the depression, families here that had money bought land for $1 an acre. Timberland, farm land, they bought all they could. Wealth is achieved through opportunity. I remember my Boy Scout motto; Be Prepared.
I only buy what I can afford and only buy Bargains. Getting It as close to spot as possible. I definitely think having some fractional gold is a good idea!
I started by DCAing into 1/10th oz. I know I’m paying a premium but for me it just meant I’d actually buy the gold rather than try to save and then maybe spend it on other stuff. It is working and I’m accumulating.
I'd personally buy a 1/10th Britannia. But any 1/10oz in the hand is better than a full ounce at the LCS. Who the heck knows what 6 months down the line will look like. It's not like you won't get the premium back on the 1/10th oz later.
I buy fractional gold right now because I want small amounts for bartering. Once I reach my initial goal I will start buying larger coins to bring down my cost. I think there is a place for both.
I think the 1/10 ounce coins are great for gifts to nieces nd nephews. They like it bc i gift it to them with a little treasure box and on their next birthday or Christmas ill give them some silver 👌🏽
I been purchasing 1/10oz gold eagles for a few years majority of them $150-$200:00 9 more and I will have a tube of 50 and feel good about it Keep stacking my friend 😀 🤑🤑
Thank you for your thoughtful insight in regard to this subject. Everyone must base their purchasing decision on their personal circumstances. I would add that any gold is better than no gold. IMO only.
Thanks for making this video, you answered my question… i just feel the need to buy everyweek which is why id buy the fractional… moving foward ill save for the ounce at a time
Not a problem. It's a great question. For the months you're feeling anxious, get the 1/4oz. When you don't have that nagging feeling, save up. You'll like the full oz more anyway. Appreciate you watching 😎👊
Yeah, this can be a hard question to address. It does depend somewhat on the person and definitely on the purpose for the Gold. In my case, I'm buying it specifically for a currency crisis and possible collapse scenario with a secondary supplemental retirement purpose. If you are just starting out, I would recommend that you buy fractional first. Reasons? Well, your universe of possible buyers goes up with the smaller increment you have of either Gold or Silver, so that they are actually MORE LIQUID than a 1 ounce piece would be. Also, they fractionals are more affordable, and in a society where transferring your wealth/purchasing power into REAL MONEY or SOUND MONEY is both frowned upon and laughed, it can be hard to maintain the strength of your convictions and therefore, your motivation to continue buying. For that reason, you want to establish some real momentum in Gold until you get a fair amount under your belt. Again, depending upon the dispositions of the person and the purposes for which they are buying the Gold, the content of what I'm going to say next can be very different. You need to decide how much you're going to buy of a particular fraction before you move on to something larger. So you might choose 1 ounce or maybe as much as even 10 ounces of Gold in a 1/10th ounce form. Once you reach that goal, you should move on to a 1/4th ounce variety and purchase a similar weight of Gold in that size as well. You might even want to double the weight that you buy in Gold, as you go up in scale, but you want to make sure that you are maintaining that momentum. Eventually, this will take you to buying 1 ounce coins, but you definitely want to have your fractionals in place first. Good video!
Totally agree. I’m a newer stacker. Have almost as much silver as I want, will still buy some, but am now putting my focus towards gold, starting with the 1/10.
Late to the party but here's my take. It's good to have some fractionals to "make change". Just think if you are a storekeep and you are exchanging money and making change. Having some 1/10 1/4 1/2 is good to sell for small amounts, or, God forbid, barter with. However, as you accumulate your stack, the cost, convenience and all that - best to go with 1 ouncers once you get started seriously stacking. Keep an eye on Sovereigns and Roosters - they're not even fractionals but they can sometimes have a cheaper premium depending on when you look.
I like the 1/5 oz. Barbados gold coin. That's as low as I go, unless someone wants to give me smaller (hint, hint...). I let my daughter use a 1/2 gram from Monarch when she plays dolls, so it looks like Ken is rico suave when he's out with Barbie. If I'm buying bars, I like Argor Heraeus bars in 1/4 oz. or 5 grams and up (usually Valcambi or Perth). Funny hearing you talk liquidity: I lived in NYC in the '70s & '80s and would buy silver at Deak Perera by Grand Central Terminal when I got paid... since I got paid every 2 weeks, I'd be selling it back 2 days before payday to eat. They had limits on price movements back then; 5 cents either way was seismic. I do have a gold 1/4 oz. Eagle that I paid $160 for... that's all that I have left of the early stuff. I got back in hot & heavy in '89. Now I stack gold & platinum. I buy junior miners and royalty streaming companies. And I keep my concealed carry permit up-to-date. I'm in a sane state.
Very smart. One doesn't see those 1/5oz coins too often. I think I've seen two in the last year. Platinum will be the winner in 2022 IMO. Thanks for watching. 🙏
You've come to the same conclusions I have regarding gold purchases. I plan to focus on gold more after the new year. I appreciate your two cents, thank you for sharing.
I have been purchasing fractional, but not 1/4 ounce eagles, but modern $5 gold commemoratives(0.242 ounce). My local coin and pawn shops like them, pay 💰 spot if need liquidity
I like the 1/10ths... A. They r flippin cute and much more importantly B. U can buy more of them and in an emergency situation much more tradeable (u dont wanna give someone your 1oz for a crate of apples)... actually i just talked myself into silver lol
We don't pay tax on gold in Colorado. So it really makes a huge difference if we buy fractional. But I agree either way. So yah buy what makes you warm and fuzzy that's what I do.
Thanks brother! Grams would be great if they didn't cost so much. The best way to get grams of gold is to buy a Valcambi 50 gram pack or 100 gram pack, but if you're pumping out that amount, just get regular ounces. Silver should always work for those low price purchases anyways. A bimetallic system is how this country was founded. If it was good enough for George and Tom, it's good enough for me. Haha.
Well said about the fear of not having enough. I tend to by 1/4 or 1/10 oz if I save up more than that the little lady seems to need it 😂 so at least this way my stack still grows.
I buy sovereigns 8grams affordable not to small not to big now I have a reasonable amount of them it adds up before I only had silver how I have both good things take time if I can't afford to buy any I don't hide it and forget about it never sell it I'm keeping it for retirement when I'm not working them it will come In handy !
Good topic. I bought 1/10’s in the past (including other coinsthat weren’t AGE) I’m trying to hold off and buy 1/4 oz now. But I do see deans on the on line dealer sites for 198 this past week.
I'm currently saving for a house in gold. At the VERY LEAST gold and silver is a savings account. They're the perfect vehicle for safely transporting your wealth through time. Theres also the chance of your wealth 2x 3x 4x or 10xing due to unforeseen circumstances.
You will always pay less premiums on the One Oz, and more on the fractionals, It all depends on your finances, I feel it's better to go for the One Oz. But it's better to just purchase as much as you can. If you can it might be best to have some of each.
Great stuff as always! Thank you for your time and input. Hope you and your whole family have a WONDERFUL Christmas. Stay safe and stack on! Peace from Kansas!!!
I live the $2.5 Indians! Wish they were a little cheaper. Saw one at my LCS for $375! I Remember when I picked my first up in 2019 for $250. Wish those days weren’t gone. I like the 1/10 oz size because it provides a way for me to get gold every month rather than waiting. Also, you get some of the premiums back on the 1/10 oz size and they are super liquid.
They are such a special coin, I agree. Have you seen the Golden State Mint replicas? They make 1/10th oz replicas of the $2.50 Indians and they look good. 24k gold too without the steep premium of the originals.
@@CampbellsCoins huh, I’ve never seen one in person but I believe I’ve heard of them on TH-cam before. Sounds like a neat coin but I am a history buff and would just go with either the original or just a government minted bullion coin.
I do not own any gold at this point. I've just reached my 500 oz. goal for silver. I'm going to evaluate, with my wife, as to what we are going to do next, whether more silver, or gold for 2022. In my opinion, 1/10 oz. gold is too small (I'm afraid I'd misplace or overlook it! lol) Right now I'm thinking more sovereign silver coins because of the high upside for silver.70 to 80 to 1 silver to gold makes silver a better deal. Having said that, I just started stacking silver when the ASE Type 2's came out, after thinking about it for a couple of months. I think there is a little fear any time you start something new, and for me that includes buying gold. But I will pop that cherry at some time in the near future!
The premise of the question was in regards to Gold Eagles. But you can sub in whatever gold coin into this question and my answer would probably be the same. Fractional bars and coins are cheaper than the eagles but present other problems when it comes to selling.
Hi CC this is CC! LOL. Always excellent information. I get the 1/10 because they are just convenient. For me it's fear of not having any. Thank you my friend. take care.
@@CampbellsCoins The cheapest at the time, AGE, Maple, Philharmonic, Britannia. I do prefer .999 or better. even though I have the Sovereigns, the AGE and the Krugerrand.
You should buy 1 oz of gold buffalo! The gold eagle is an alloy. It's gold mixed with some other kind of metal that pose a probability to corrode or rust. Only gold stays pure.
last year i started out buying bars and silver thinking i was going to barter or exchange. the fomo was real! i got my weight up and some cool pieces but i wish i just stuck with 1oz age and buffalo. the pamp suisse lady fortuna design really got me wanting bars and i didnt know anything at the time. the una and the lion design got me as well. perth has some really cool designs but now i know!
I really like all those designs you mentioned. I plan to get pieces outside my "advice" in 2022. 2022 Australian Kangaroo (the font looks cool), the new reverse proof pamp bars, but mostly stacking AGEs and AGBs when I can't get pre33 for a good price.
If you think of ever selling quickly I have first had advice. The broker will give you a certain price below spot and it does not matter if it's a full ounce coin or fractionals. They will pay the same flat price for all of it. I needed a truck and still made profit off the gold but that is what it comes down to. Get a better price if you take your time selling possibly.
If you live in a State with a tax on precious metal sales, then fractional coins are just throwing your money down the drain if you are under the tax threshold.
Full ounces are more popular and you can buy them at a lower premium, but for some reason the half ounces are my favorite size, and I think they look great. Either is a good choice so you can’t really go wrong. 👍
Buy them BOTH! Go mow some lawns, shovel walkways, get a second job, save your dinero, and do whatever you gotta do to buy gold! FONHE v. FOMO. Doesn't have the same ring to it, gotta be honest. I have a lot of 1/10, 1/4, 1/2 and full ounces. Unsurprisingly, I can trade 10 1/10 oz. AGEs for a full 1 oz AGE, but I cannot trade a 1 oz AGE for 10 1/10 oz AGEs. Nobody will do that. Those premiums are killers. I think I've spent $225 on the tenths before, but that's about as much as I have ever paid. Yes! Liquidity is key! 100% agree on that. Funny convo on the size of the tenths. My eyesight isn't what it used to be, so my loupe is my best friend, particularly when trying to see the doggone dates! Have a good one!
Awesome video quarter's it is then was going for the 1/10 mable and brittania but like you said to small iam from the uk so prices are different tbafx my goal for 2022 👍
Just ordered my first 1 oz gold eagle. Not sure why you would buy a 1/10th oz gold eagle. Just buy silver if that's the budget you have. JM Bullion just got a shipment of 10 oz silver Britannia bars. Probably around the same price.
I'm working on a roll of 1/10 oz American eagles I know the premiums higher however we all know the price of gold is going to go up and that will take away the premium. I look at the $1/10 like constitutional silver and if there's trouble it's easy to sell a 1/10 ounce than it is to try to break up a whole 1 oz coin giving me more options if trouble hits. What do you think?
When I buy gold it's in quarter ounce or half ounce coins only I don't like the one ounce too expensive I don't like the 10th ounce too small the quarter ounce and 1/2 oz like you said are more easier to get rid of if you need the money the majority of the people can afford and I don't care about no American eagle but that's just my preference I have a couple but as far as what they look like for the price it's overpriced
You don’t have one…that’s my first clue 🤣 I know that phase you’re referring too, that’s kinda where I am now. I’m definitely taking my foot of the accelerator now, patient stacking is better than full bore swan dive
i try to buy them all but i only buy graded 1/0 ounce gold coins because as you said. their so small!!!! by the way i only buy on national auctions as i find the auctions are fun.
Second video of yours I watched, first one was why stack fractional, great information well presented like and subscribed! Really one of the questions You have to ask yourself is what can I comfortably afford? and is it worth having one big coin, which to many is a lot of money or consistent small purchases? Personally I’ve only been stacking for a couple years but I think it’s best to have a diverse size stack.
Depends on your budget. Definitely buy at your own pace and if your own pace is 1/10 a month, then do that. You'll just pay a bigger premium than the larger sizes, and if you live in a state with a threshold tax, it will cost even more buying the small stuff.
Sorry I never saw your question. Some bigger bullion like Apmex has backdated coins but not a large amount. This is because it costs more to hang onto product year after year. Also product sells out year after year, there is only so many minted. If they have anything remaining going back three years, it's because they have a hard time selling it.
I don't see much incentive in buying 1/10 oz gold or platinum as I don't have a large budget for my own pm (especially this time of year) so I've been buying grams of platinum for about $46 and have been eyeing grams of gold for $70. My logic is an ASE is $35 or more so $10 more for platinum is more appealing and 2 ASE would be $70 or more so might as well get gold. I did buy a 1/4 troy pound of 90% silver today however as the price was right.
Just heard your "Don't buy gram's!" Toward the end lol, if my math is correct I could theoretically stack an ozt of platinum for $1350 and an ozt of gold for $2100, for 31 theoretical transactions per ozt that seems fair.
If a person has little or no financial discipline, then it may be a good idea to buy the 1/10oz AGE's, instead of taking a chance on spending their money on other things. If they have self-discipline, then it may be better to save and buy the 1-ounce AGE. Personally, I have 1 tube of 1/10oz AGE's (50 coins) I paid anywhere from $180 to $225 for each coin. (Which is about a $380 per ounce premium. So basically, I could have an extra 1 ounce of gold in my stack if I had just gone with the 1-ounce coins. There is no real advantage to having 1/10oz coins, other than being able to sell less than an ounce at a time. - However, I would suggest that if you do not have a cash reserve, and you needed to sell 2 or 3 of your 1/1o ounce coins to cover an emergency, then you are stacking the wrong thing to start with. You should probably be stacking silver if you have no emergency fund. Gold is for the long-haul.... When you buy gold, that should be your 20 plus year savings account in my opinion.
Campbell's Coins this is an excellent topic. A follow up a question that I am struggling with is should I eventually trade my fractional gold to a 1oz gold coins? The other struggle is I have different sizes of silver between a 1oz and a 2oz in a round air tight capsule and trying to put it in a plastic tube and a 39mm or 40mm size won't fit what other size will fit for what I need to do?
No since you paid more premium for the fractional,you will lose trading up. And everywhere pays you a higher premium for fractional when you sell. Look on eBay and see how you would get your money back even buying the fractional...and then don't use ebay go on insta or something where you can sell without those enormous fees. Because if you were willing to trade,everyone would want your fractional for their full oz price.
@@jrtjonathanwinchell3955 lol ok that's what most ppl would be considering if they have a "struggle" with something like that. But you have other factors to struggle over with your decision I see. Good luck and Cheers !
@@Zaycream21 I don't understand why there are struggles when people buy or sell silver because speaking for myself I don't care about spot price or premiums I buy when I want to buy and when I want to sell I sell and that's STONE COLD!
Everyone's stack and goals are different. I was looking at my LCS at a 1/4oz AGE for 550, but they have a 1/4oz gold commemorative for 450. So I'm going with the commemorative, but that is just me.
Mmmmm………..so if you need to buy something that costs say 1/2 ounce……..and all you have are 1ounce coins……..u gonna give that person a free 1/2 ounce of gold????

In my very humble opinion, all of your videos are truly great.....but this one (again, IMHO) is your best one yet. Keep up the amazing work, sir.
That means a lot. Thanks so much!
for fractional gold its probably best to sell privately so you can recover most of the premium

Great stuff as always! Thank you for your time and input. Hope you and your whole family have a WONDERFUL Christmas. Stay safe and stack on! Peace from Kansas!!!
Thanks KS! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I live the $2.5 Indians! Wish they were a little cheaper. Saw one at my LCS for $375! I Remember when I picked my first up in 2019 for $250. Wish those days weren’t gone. I like the 1/10 oz size because it provides a way for me to get gold every month rather than waiting. Also, you get some of the premiums back on the 1/10 oz size and they are super liquid.
They are such a special coin, I agree. Have you seen the Golden State Mint replicas? They make 1/10th oz replicas of the $2.50 Indians and they look good. 24k gold too without the steep premium of the originals.
@@CampbellsCoins huh, I’ve never seen one in person but I believe I’ve heard of them on TH-cam before. Sounds like a neat coin but I am a history buff and would just go with either the original or just a government minted bullion coin.
Save for what you want we're your heart with this coin.
I do not own any gold at this point. I've just reached my 500 oz. goal for silver. I'm going to evaluate, with my wife, as to what we are going to do next, whether more silver, or gold for 2022. In my opinion, 1/10 oz. gold is too small (I'm afraid I'd misplace or overlook it! lol) Right now I'm thinking more sovereign silver coins because of the high upside for silver.70 to 80 to 1 silver to gold makes silver a better deal. Having said that, I just started stacking silver when the ASE Type 2's came out, after thinking about it for a couple of months. I think there is a little fear any time you start something new, and for me that includes buying gold. But I will pop that cherry at some time in the near future!
Why does it have to be a eagle in the first place. There a lot more cheaper options out there when it comes to fractional gold.
No one said it had to be, stop getting butt hurt over the trivial.
The premise of the question was in regards to Gold Eagles. But you can sub in whatever gold coin into this question and my answer would probably be the same. Fractional bars and coins are cheaper than the eagles but present other problems when it comes to selling.
The Gold Eagles are the most liquid in my opinion tho...at least in America
Hi CC this is CC! LOL. Always excellent information. I get the 1/10 because they are just convenient. For me it's fear of not having any. Thank you my friend. take care.
Haha hi CC! Thank you. Do what you're comfortable with. Is there a fractional 1/10 piece you prefer over others?
@@CampbellsCoins The cheapest at the time, AGE, Maple, Philharmonic, Britannia. I do prefer .999 or better. even though I have the Sovereigns, the AGE and the Krugerrand.
I can only afford to stack the 1/10 or save up to get the 1/4. Good video.
1/4oz all day. Thanks 👊
It’s easier for me to part with a tenth or a quarter in a pinch.
An inventory list! Why have i not thought of that haha. A bit off topic, but just had to pause to thank you for the tip
You should buy 1 oz of gold buffalo! The gold eagle is an alloy. It's gold mixed with some other kind of metal that pose a probability to corrode or rust. Only gold stays pure.
By the time you've saved up for the 1oz eagle gold will probably be down and it might be cheaper!
last year i started out buying bars and silver thinking i was going to barter or exchange. the fomo was real!
i got my weight up and some cool pieces but i wish i just stuck with 1oz age and buffalo.
the pamp suisse lady fortuna design really got me wanting bars and i didnt know anything at the time.
the una and the lion design got me as well.
perth has some really cool designs but now i know!
I really like all those designs you mentioned. I plan to get pieces outside my "advice" in 2022. 2022 Australian Kangaroo (the font looks cool), the new reverse proof pamp bars, but mostly stacking AGEs and AGBs when I can't get pre33 for a good price.
If you think of ever selling quickly I have first had advice. The broker will give you a certain price below spot and it does not matter if it's a full ounce coin or fractionals. They will pay the same flat price for all of it.
I needed a truck and still made profit off the gold but that is what it comes down to. Get a better price if you take your time selling possibly.
I'm filling a plastic dime roll with 1/10th Eagles. Great content
I'm buying low-premium fractional because of the cost, and I might have to use it for money one day.
Yes, that's true. I like silver for purchases but gold will always be favored. Thanks man👊
Really the biggest reason I'm thinking of getting a 1/10oz coin is because, for now, I can afford it.
Nothing wrong with that reasoning. Keep on stackin!
@@CampbellsCoins Actually, this would be my first gold piece.
I am just getting ready to get started.
@@mdredheadguy1979 Oh great! Congrats on starting!
Excellent video and you are correct. Nevertheless, I love the 1/10 ounce coins. Think barter.
Yep, they are a great size for that. Thanks for watching!
If you live in a State with a tax on precious metal sales, then fractional coins are just throwing your money down the drain if you are under the tax threshold.
Totally agree.
I like 1/4 and 1/10 personally, seems like peer to peer selling is very quick with those sizes.
Any gold is better than no gold. 😆
I don't buy any coin gold or silver that has a denomination on it.
Interesting discussion and good advice. I've been trying to decide between a couple of half oz or one full oz AGE when the money comes in soon.
Full ounces are more popular and you can buy them at a lower premium, but for some reason the half ounces are my favorite size, and I think they look great. Either is a good choice so you can’t really go wrong. 👍
@@sebastianrmaaa3275 I went with the full one oz AGE while I had the $$ to do so. Later got my first half oz and hoping for the other soon!
@@getx1265 that’s awesome to hear 👍
U need both
Buy them BOTH! Go mow some lawns, shovel walkways, get a second job, save your dinero, and do whatever you gotta do to buy gold! FONHE v. FOMO. Doesn't have the same ring to it, gotta be honest. I have a lot of 1/10, 1/4, 1/2 and full ounces. Unsurprisingly, I can trade 10 1/10 oz. AGEs for a full 1 oz AGE, but I cannot trade a 1 oz AGE for 10 1/10 oz AGEs. Nobody will do that. Those premiums are killers. I think I've spent $225 on the tenths before, but that's about as much as I have ever paid. Yes! Liquidity is key! 100% agree on that. Funny convo on the size of the tenths. My eyesight isn't what it used to be, so my loupe is my best friend, particularly when trying to see the doggone dates! Have a good one!
If you dont already own an Oz coin, go for the OZ.
I bought 3. 1 oz And 1 .. 2 oz coins.
Nice!
Awesome video quarter's it is then was going for the 1/10 mable and brittania but like you said to small iam from the uk so prices are different tbafx my goal for 2022 👍
Not bad! Thanks! Appreciate your time. Keep on stacking!
Taxing you a money exchange is criminal
Just ordered my first 1 oz gold eagle. Not sure why you would buy a 1/10th oz gold eagle. Just buy silver if that's the budget you have. JM Bullion just got a shipment of 10 oz silver Britannia bars. Probably around the same price.
100%. Congrats on your first 1oz Eagle! Thanks for watching!
I'm working on a roll of 1/10 oz American eagles I know the premiums higher however we all know the price of gold is going to go up and that will take away the premium. I look at the $1/10 like constitutional silver and if there's trouble it's easy to sell a 1/10 ounce than it is to try to break up a whole 1 oz coin giving me more options if trouble hits. What do you think?
Thank you for the information
When I buy gold it's in quarter ounce or half ounce coins only I don't like the one ounce too expensive I don't like the 10th ounce too small the quarter ounce and 1/2 oz like you said are more easier to get rid of if you need the money the majority of the people can afford and I don't care about no American eagle but that's just my preference I have a couple but as far as what they look like for the price it's overpriced
The Ounce, is a better deal, but the frac is more liquid. If you don't care about liquidity, then get the ounce. IMHO
1 oz until spot is unaffordable
Cheers
You're right when gold isn't moving. But when it did take off then you would be chasing the train up the track. Take 2009 for instance
You don’t have one…that’s my first clue 🤣
I know that phase you’re referring too, that’s kinda where I am now. I’m definitely taking my foot of the accelerator now, patient stacking is better than full bore swan dive
Very good comparisons I agree ☝️💥
i try to buy them all but i only buy graded 1/0 ounce gold coins because as you said. their so small!!!! by the way i only buy on national auctions as i find the auctions are fun.
Second video of yours I watched, first one was why stack fractional, great information well presented like and subscribed! Really one of the questions You have to ask yourself is what can I comfortably afford? and is it worth having one big coin, which to many is a lot of money or consistent small purchases? Personally I’ve only been stacking for a couple years but I think it’s best to have a diverse size stack.
I’d say discipline yourself to buy a 1oz.
why do bullion coins have higher premiums ? cheapest one i could find was 15% above spot price.
With where we're at in the economy. And for someone who is just starting. Are 1/10 oz coins ok to start?
Depends on your budget. Definitely buy at your own pace and if your own pace is 1/10 a month, then do that. You'll just pay a bigger premium than the larger sizes, and if you live in a state with a threshold tax, it will cost even more buying the small stuff.
@CampbellsCoins with what you're seeing about the economy. Do you feel that we still have time to buy and build a decent precious metals stack?
I'm new to collecting. Why do online dealers only seem to have plentiful 2021 and 2022 coins...nothing older? Thank you.
Sorry I never saw your question. Some bigger bullion like Apmex has backdated coins but not a large amount. This is because it costs more to hang onto product year after year. Also product sells out year after year, there is only so many minted. If they have anything remaining going back three years, it's because they have a hard time selling it.
I don't see much incentive in buying 1/10 oz gold or platinum as I don't have a large budget for my own pm (especially this time of year) so I've been buying grams of platinum for about $46 and have been eyeing grams of gold for $70. My logic is an ASE is $35 or more so $10 more for platinum is more appealing and 2 ASE would be $70 or more so might as well get gold. I did buy a 1/4 troy pound of 90% silver today however as the price was right.
Just heard your "Don't buy gram's!" Toward the end lol, if my math is correct I could theoretically stack an ozt of platinum for $1350 and an ozt of gold for $2100, for 31 theoretical transactions per ozt that seems fair.
I have a similar ponderance. 1/4 or 1/2 oz. I have mostly focused on AG and don't have any AU but want some. Who don't, right?
Neither... Buy the 1/10 oz Gold Britania, or the 1 oz gold Britania... Cheaper, and better looking.
Why the “beep” prior to “show “?
If a person has little or no financial discipline, then it may be a good idea to buy the 1/10oz AGE's, instead of taking a chance on spending their money on other things. If they have self-discipline, then it may be better to save and buy the 1-ounce AGE.
Personally, I have 1 tube of 1/10oz AGE's (50 coins)
I paid anywhere from $180 to $225 for each coin. (Which is about a $380 per ounce premium. So basically, I could have an extra 1 ounce of gold in my stack if I had just gone with the 1-ounce coins.
There is no real advantage to having 1/10oz coins, other than being able to sell less than an ounce at a time. - However, I would suggest that if you do not have a cash reserve, and you needed to sell 2 or 3 of your 1/1o ounce coins to cover an emergency, then you are stacking the wrong thing to start with. You should probably be stacking silver if you have no emergency fund.
Gold is for the long-haul.... When you buy gold, that should be your 20 plus year savings account in my opinion.
Mississippi, Yea fu*@ed either way
1/10th oz cuz its easy for me to convince my wallet
Which is better 24k .999 or i see also .9167
Campbell's Coins this is an excellent topic. A follow up a question that I am struggling with is should I eventually trade my fractional gold to a 1oz gold coins?
The other struggle is I have different sizes of silver between a 1oz and a 2oz in a round air tight capsule and trying to put it in a plastic tube and a 39mm or 40mm size won't fit what other size will fit for what I need to do?
No since you paid more premium for the fractional,you will lose trading up. And everywhere pays you a higher premium for fractional when you sell. Look on eBay and see how you would get your money back even buying the fractional...and then don't use ebay go on insta or something where you can sell without those enormous fees. Because if you were willing to trade,everyone would want your fractional for their full oz price.
@@Zaycream21 I don't sell fractional gold on ebay nor do I sell on Instagram and I dont consider getting my premium back from selling.
@@jrtjonathanwinchell3955 lol ok that's what most ppl would be considering if they have a "struggle" with something like that. But you have other factors to struggle over with your decision I see. Good luck and Cheers !
@@Zaycream21 I don't understand why there are struggles when people buy or sell silver because speaking for myself I don't care about spot price or premiums I buy when I want to buy and when I want to sell I sell and that's STONE COLD!
@@jrtjonathanwinchell3955 Burrr..I guess ? Lol ..Cheers
Everyone's stack and goals are different. I was looking at my LCS at a 1/4oz AGE for 550, but they have a 1/4oz gold commemorative for 450. So I'm going with the commemorative, but that is just me.
$550 is very high, I don't blame you for picking the commemorative. Thanks for stopping by!
Does gold taste like the chocolate coins?
Only one way to find out.
Neither. The GSR is 80. Buy silver.
When will the GSR drop to a manageable range?
@@CampbellsCoins not until the dollar hyperinflates most likely. The true GSR is like 15.
@@Glockmog2007 check out the silver videos on my channel, you’re preaching to the choir.
👍
Mmmmm………..so if you need to buy something that costs say 1/2 ounce……..and all you have are 1ounce coins……..u gonna give that person a free 1/2 ounce of gold????
Why don't they have change?
I will trade you for sliver
First
1/4 ounce is the sweet spot
Couldn't agree more!
