1-2 dollars over spot is a great deal!
I got a 1992-p 1/10 oz gold eagle proof from a coin show yesterday for 175, which I thought was a great deal, but thats like 20$ over spot lol

But seriously, it seems like coin dealers are much more willing to work with the younger generation who show a good amount of interest. I am not a coin dealer, but am a dealer in another hobby of mine. I find it so very easy to give some great deals to younger, interested people. The other dealers and I often talk about this and it seems pretty common. It makes us 40+ year old prune-juice-drinkers  feel good to be able to help a young'in!

I am 25 and the coin shop around me usually gives me the exact same deal as the next jo smo. I even gave him advice on the last recent silver drop. He said thanks, but didn;t adjust the price
