Gold Bullion Prices Knowledge Base
How can you buy gold bullion from the US government at the spot price? Is there a way to buy in large enough volume so that you can go straight to the US mint to buy gold coins and avoid paying a dealer mark up percentage? Do I need a license? Do I have not chance? I am looking for physical gold that I can hold like a 1 oz coin. Or a gold bar like on the movies.
Who would you go to purchase gold bullion & bullion coins at the cheapest price? I believe that the U.S. dollar will lose value to the Euro. Thus, I am seriously thing of buying gold/silver/platinum bullion as well as bullion gold coins (NOT collectible gold coins) as a hedge. Therefore, I am looking at which U.S. gold supplier (e.g. Goldline International, Lear Financial, et. al.) offers the BEST deals.
How much is a 1914 Indian $10 gold coin in G+/VG condition? This is a 1oz .900 pure gold coin. A jeweler is going to quote me a price on Monday and I want to know what is a good buy price. Is a coin in this condition worth more than the gold bullion that is in it? If not, how would I calculate how much the coin is worth based strictly on gold bullion (current gold spot price is $914)?
Being paid in gold bullion? What is your opinion of being paid in circulated gold bullion coins? For example, I demand that I get paid in regularly circulated 1 oz $50 gold bullion coins. Should I get taxed on $50, the face value of the coin, or $960, the price of gold? Just curious. http://www.muckrakerreport.com/id31.html How would this article influence your answer?
How do silver and gold bullion coins come packaged? I'm thinking about buying some silver bullion coins for investments (go along with savings and mutual funds) and generally just for the idea of having some coins that would have some worth to them either now or in the future. I want to buy gold bullion coins as well but I'm going to wait out that to see how the US economy continues and if the price of gold is going to drop or not. Not in any rush, in my early 20s. Also silver fits more into my budget after I take care other other things, student loans, and put away money in savings. I've been looking at Kitco.com as a place to buy from but I'm wondering in general how are silver and gold bullion coins packaged when you buy them? Are they simply sent in packaging and you can touch them with your hand or are they perhaps encased in plastic that you might be able to open if you want? Or is that something you have to buy yourself? Here is an example of what I'm referring to. http://www.fremontcoin.com/p_carlino_lvrj.jp Thanks. Sorry.

Where besides eBay can you sell gold bullion? I purchased an ounce of gold for $425 a year ago and can cash out with a $200 profit if I sell it now. I have had some bad experiences with eBay/PayPal, so I don't feel comfortable making such a large transaction through them. I am looking for reputable buyers that will pay market value (at least at spot price). It is a gold bar, not a coin, if that makes any difference.
Where can I sell a one-ounce, .999 pure gold bar around the spot price of gold? I tried calling coin shops and jewelers and they would only give me $600 (or roughly 95% of gold's current spot price, $632/oz). All of the online precious metals companies buy gold in bulk (minimum = 10 oz). And I don't feel comfortable making such a large transaction on eBay after having a few bad experiences buying/selling tickets to sporting events. Is there anywhere that I would be able to sell my gold bullion for at least $620?

where to sell gold bullion / dore from dental scrap gold to? I've melted lots of dental scrap into an ingot / gold bar and refined it using a home refining system. its 99.98% gold. where can i sell it to? I saw others on Ebay which sold for a lot less than the gold spot price (ie, spot was $20/gram and other home-made bars were selling for roughly $16/gram only) The only ones selling for a good price were the stamped ones from Metalor, Suisse, etc. Since I made it myself, what do I do with it? I tried selling some before to refiners I found online like Midwest Refineries and Garfield, but the return was NOT as advertised. They claimed I would get 94%-96% of the value but they really only gave me like 60% - scammers, to say the least. Anyways, does anyone have experience with a reputable gold buyer for non-minted gold bullions? Allso, I have a good amount of palladium which is about half the price of gold - who can buy that at a good price? Thanks im dealing with about 50 oz. what is the minimum for a known refining company to refine my gold, and do you know what rates they charge?

This coin does not has the "20 years ans." on the reverse of the coin, will it affect the value and this coin geniune or not? Can anyone tell me more about this "20years ans" ? Also, who can I sell it to at market rates as banks offer prices below market rates and only buy back coins that they sold in the first place?
Where has New Labour gone wrong re the economy? Using today's figures and taking the starting point on the same day in 1998, the NYSE is up 40%, the German DAX is up 27%, our stock exchange - the FTSE is up 5%. Weare constantly told how prudent our Chancellor was. But was he? Apparently in the bullion market the lowest price of gold (at which G. Brown sold some of our reserves) is known as Brown's Bottom.
How can you determine if it is really gold? My colleague bought a nice looking ring off of e*Bay, the seller claims it is 22 karat gold. He only wound up paying $29 dollars for the ring and I say that is just not possible. I felt the ring, and it feels like about 15 grams. And, it does indeed look like 22 karat gold but there is no bullion mark stamped inside. If somehow this was real gold, I would think my friend might be interested in trying to resell it at a higher price. But how can you determine if it is real? I don't think going to a geologist for some sort of an assay is an option. Are there any tell-tale things that can be spotted with a loupe perhaps, that would tip someone off it is real?
What is the best way to sell a coin collection? I have a coin collection with U.S. silver dollars from the 1800s and other rare coins. I also have some gold coins and silver bullion. I'm interested in the best way to maximize the sales price on these assets.
Swiss 20 Gold Coins? Are Swiss 20 Gold Coins a good investment (long term)? Gold prices are expected to rise considerably. Is this a good investment or would there be a better way (mining co's., bullion, anything) to invest in gold?
Where in the United States can you buy gold bars or coins? I would like to know what is the best way to buy gold coins or bullion in the U.S. I am not a coin collector; I don't care about that stuff. I want legit, recognized, gold coins that I can purchase from a reputable place with their certificate and KEEP with me - not have a piece of paper saying I own them and they are locked in some vault somewhere. Just as a form of security and piece of mind for me, I guess. I also thought about giving them as gifts to my small nieces and nephews rather than toys etc. once in a while. Does anyone know what is the best way to go about doing this? I don't really care where the coins are from as long as they are authentic, certified, etc. It is legal too, right? To buy coins from here or anywhere else? I'm obviously very ignorant about the subject. I had thought about doing this about 4 years ago when the price was like $400 per ounce, now I check and it is like $1000 and I want to kick myself for not buying then. Thanks! By the way, I realize that the price of gold is ridiculously high right now, so I probably won't be buying very soon, but I would like to buy when it is reasonable again.
Is America Bankrupt Is the Dollar worth Zero? What folks need to understand is that the global OTC derivatives market, measured in tens or hundreds of trillions, is virtually all U.S. dollar denominated. Its systematic failure, which is now occurring, requires U.S. dollar balances to clear (settle) the trades (bets). This has created the paradoxical global demand for U.S. dollars, the currency of a country that is fundamentally bankrupt. By rationing credit to hedge funds that were naturally levered and "long commodities", institutions like JP Morgan routinely took the other sides of their customers commodities bets, ruining institutions like natural gas player Amaranth, and propping up the balance sheets of those who were short commodities, such as the banks. The Federal Reserve led cabal of Central Bankers have engineered the collapse in commodities prices while creating the illusion (of a perverse U.S. dollar rally). The engineered collapse of the commodities complex became necessary in the eyes of monetary elites because the rush for tangibles and corresponding repudiation of fiat money was becoming manic, as so clearly evidenced by the emerging shortages of precious metals, gold and silver bullion.
The canadian Forex Rates? Is there a good website to check the current prices of gold, silver and other bullion, forex rates in canada??
Should voting for Labour be fined...? considering Labour legacy of economic devastation & buggerisation of former great Britain- Should dolts who vote Labour be fined to financing the debt Labour inevitably causes- Eg: super wiz Dennis Healey's pound devaluation, Reserve being depleted at £50 million/day and IMF grovelling for soft loans and ending the pensioner's Christmas bonus- a fitting way to repay our Greatest Generation who defeated the Nazis. Super-dullard Brown- sold our gold at the trough of a massive gold price spike- despite adfvice it would be madness. HSBC' Head precious metal dealer Peter Fava: "the timing was ludicrous. We told them you are going to push the gold price down before you sell: We thought it a disastrous decision; we couldn’t understand it" Brown sold at $256- $296/ounce= average = $275. Gold then hit record highs. Today @ $907/ounce- it's worth £17 billion++. Bravo. Now Britain has the lowest bullion holdings of any major country & can easily integrate with the Euro So fines in order?
