is there a certain percentage over spot one can expect to pay for say a generic 1920 something $20 saint gaudens in ms-62 condition or is it basically running along side of spot prices for generic gold like that. Basically any information about how much over spot is a good price would be greatly appreciated because I have free'd up some funds and feel this would be a good time to fill some of them gold holes in the Dansco7070 with some of the money but feel I need to do some research before I go throwing my money out there

The premium fluctuates and is at a low point now, good time to buy the US generics. As gold price picks up momentum the premium increases.

IMHO the best bang for the buck is AU-58's if buying US. You get gem 63/64 quality with just the luster broken on the high points at near melt.

If you want to investigate REALLY good deals , this article might help.

i was able to pick up 3 half eagles (anacs xf/xf/au) for 160,165/170 last yr w/ spot running at 620. also a ms62 1911d saint for 690. picked them up at auctions. felt is was a good deal especially in relation to spot gold. you may have to put in a LOT of time hunting for the right coins but it can be done. good luck.

does anyone on the forum
"Invest in Gold"

That is are you using a broker to purchase coins on a regular basis.

I am interested in some of the radio ads I have heard

and to date I find it easier to buy coins from the US mint and the Perth Mint
but if you know a good investment house -I am willing to check them out

I don't use a Broker per se but, our 401K is 50% invested in the Gold market and we've had a 33% increase over the last year or so.
