Make gold planchets out of the bar and produce a few more Flowing Hair medals. Charge double and rake in the profits.

I think everyone who wanted gold in North America has gotten it now .Costco has been selling hard for over a year now which gets it to the average person who is not a dyed in the wool gold bug. Reports are hinting most of the buying is now coming from overseas. It needs a consolidation phase here now for a while to digest the gains. (My guess anyways)

Thank you for the update on the final price. It looks bad for the auction house. That was why they hid it.
Repeating myself. Why do people put up bullion for auction and pay commissions on the melt value? Gold is gold. Few coins and even fewer bars have historical value and rarity. All modern commemorative are bullion. Some have nice deigns and we collect them but their value is bullion.
