Finding Low Premium Gold Coins

  • If you're looking for low premium gold coins, you don't have to settle for old, 22K European coins. You might actually have better luck talking to your local coin shop to find certain modern, government-backed gold coins for far less.
    This video covers the topic of finding the lowest premium gold and takes a close look at the American Liberty 225th Anniversary Gold Coin.
    NOTE: I am not a financial planner. I'm just a guy on the internet, talking about precious metals. Always do your own research before buying gold or silver.

    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.

    • @2is1gold
      @2is1gold  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I talked to two LCS owners lately, and both were only giving spot for Maples right now as well. So if you can get a cheap, good-looking coin with a face value from your country’s mint, it seems like a smart play! Cheers!

    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.

    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.

    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.

      Weird weights shouldn't be a problem for anyone with basic math skills. Using your example of .4848 oz and a spot price of $1900 (1900 X .4848 = $921.12 gold value), and anything above that is the premium.

    SD Bullion has a good deal right now on tenth ounce gold Philharmonics.

    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.

    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!

    • @2is1gold

    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.

      @@momocute1505/ The statement is absolutely "TRUE" in the physical sense . . . but, in the commercial sense it's a bit "MISLEADING." Unfortunately, the U.S.A government Mint and subsequent Dealers have learned that collectors/stackers will PAY MORE for a coin that has very limited production (which actually reduces manufacturing costs for acquiring raw material, etc.) and for coins that have been U.S.A. made.
      It's a self imposed psychological belief by collectors/stackers that U.S.A. minted gold coins are somehow more valuable than equally (quality wise) minted gold coins from other trusted, government Mints. Accordingly, in a sense, collectors/stackers don't truly believe that "Gold is Gold." They are willing to pay the increased price for such self perpetrating belief.

    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?

    • @2is1gold
      @2is1gold  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Buffalo is a 23.7mm diameter vs the Maple's 30mm diameter. In the U.S., there is a tax law that requires an immediate IRS form if you sell 25 or more Maples. The Buffalo has a higher premium and is more popular in the U.S., The CML is more popular elsewhere. Other than that, they're relatively similar. Both are 24k 9999 pure gold coins. Salut!

    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!

    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?

      On 1oz coins, Eagles and Buffalos are around 5% premium, Maples and Krugs are 4%, Britannias, Kangaroos, Philharmonics are 3%-4%, and I can get Sovereigns at spot. That's only based on the 3 or 4 shops I know well.
