Gold Bullion Coins Knowledge Base
Where Can you sell Gold Bullion Coins If the Chips are down? Alot of questions here, i know a Bullion outlet can buy or sell when they please, but if you had .9999 fine coins like the american buffalo (as ugly of a coin as it is it is wrapped in plastic and can't scratch in its packge) Could you sell it to the jewlerers ar spot. So another question would be would.9999 fine gold be better because more sources can buy it and even when a market is heading downwards, jewlery and industry still need gold. Is this common or does industry usually go to other sources.

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.

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.

Can we buy gold bars in the US, and if so where? I know that in 1933 FDR stole everyone's gold and replaced it "fiat" federal reserve notes. But what I don't know is if it is legal to purchase gold bars of unlimited quantity today in the US. I know you can buy and own gold bullion coins but what about bars of gold. I have heard many stories about this but I have yet to find any concrete evidence that it is legal to buy and own gold bars in unlimited quantity. I am talking about walking into a place of business putting down money and walking out with physical bars of gold. I don't think you can do that... Am I wrong?
Where can a person purchase gold bullion? Now is as good time as ever to invest in gold with the dollar value going down. However, I would like to purchase it in the physical sense and keep it in my own personal vault. Does anyone know any reputable places to buy gold bullion or authentic gold coins online for investment purposes, then have it shipped to your doorstep? I am against buying it and owning a virtual "share" of gold. If the economy were to ever collapse, I doubt the Gold would be mailed out to my doorstep. So my goal is to get real gold that I can store. That's what many of the top richest people in the world are doing, and I think I should too. Any ideas? <ADDED> If someone has a reference that states it is illegal for US citizens to own gold, please share. <ADDED> Where would be a good place to buy gold coins?

I'm looking buy for the material, not for nostalgia or collector value. Any suggestions?

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.

Can this be deducted as an "investment" expense?

Gold and Silver for Euro exchange? I am taking a vacation to Europe for 5 weeks this summer. Would it be a good idea to take some gold and silver bullion coins with me and make the exchange to Euros once I got there versus taking US dollars or using my credit card for purchases? I am thinking the smart way to go is several thousand dollars worth of silver and gold coins then sell them in Europe for Euros. Any ideas on this ? The coins have no collectable value. They would be sold strictly for the Gold or Silver content at the current world market rate as a price per ounce. So rather than selling an ounce of gold here in the states for US dollars I would be selling an ounce of gold in Europe for Euros. Selling it is not the problem. Gold is "flying off the shelves" worldwide.
Where to buy gold bullion? I live in a fair sized city in Ontario, Canada... about 70,000 people. Would there be a store in my city that sells gold? I don't want to buy it online. What kind of store am I looking for? Coin dealerships or pawn shops maybe? You can't get it at the bank can you? Or do they only sell it directly in larger cities like Toronto? I don't want collector's coins, I just want pure gold as close to market value as possible. (I know there is going to be a vendor markup.) I already own a gold ETF but I would like to own a little bit of physical gold. Also anything I should look for to avoid being ripped off? Would buying an equal $ amount of silver be as good a choice as buying gold? It's certainly cheaper so I could buy a lot more of it.
Gold bracelet...what could it be worth? I have a gold 'bangle' type bracelet. It has no major workmanship to speak of, it is merely a lump of 22kt gold bullion that was shaped into a strip and bent to make a bracelet. It is 60 grams of pure 22kt gold. I watched the Indian man make it, he melted some gold coins down and made the bracelet using old-fashioned tools like a blacksmith. Anyway, it's just sitting in a safe place and I am wondering if I am better off selling it, or keeping it? How much is 60 grams of 22kt gold worth?

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?
Question regarding sunken treasure? I recall reading a Peter Benchley book called "The Island", which dealt with sunken treasure. I recall a charactor stating that silver corrodes steadily over time when submersed in salt water, until eventually it is just a "skeleton" of it's former self. But he also stated that if silver (coins, I assume) were lying against or in close proximity to gold , (coins or bullion), that the silver would be nearly unaffected by the effects of salt water. True or false?
COIN COLLECTORS! How do you display or store your coins? I've got a TON of coins, some in the paper folders with the cellophane, some not, some slabbed, I've got a lot of silver and gold bullion. Right now I made a folder with my collection divided into pennies, nickels, quarters, dimes, dollars. But I've also got a TON of silver proof state quarters, etc., and it's all in a safe, but I'd like to organize some boxes better. Are there holders for slabbed coins? ANY ideas? Yes, I got the mylar flaps for mine, not a "coin book" where you mash the penny into the too-small-hole to "display" it.
