Aahz Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 08/07/2015 9:51 pm NOT wishful thinking! If you shop around, you should be able to find an MS-60 Indian $5 for under $500. Or what might be better looking is an AU-58 for slightly less. And if you like bullion, you can get a nice 1/4 oz Eagle for under $400. If your budget has a little stretch, a 1/2 oz Eagle or an AU $10 Indian should be right around $600. Edited by Aahz 08/08/2015 10:59 am Report this Post to the Staff
jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2220 Posts	Posted 08/07/2015 11:55 pm I do like the look of the $10 Indian, too. Everyone's right about the simplicity being alluring. Very St.-Gaudens-like. which is no surprise. Report this Post to the Staff
Lincoln28 Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 12:23 am I personally like the Liberty Half Eagle. $5. For $450 you can get an ms 62. Yes it will be a higher mintage. Or for $500ish you can get an Au-53 or 55 lower mintage coin Report this Post to the Staff
BuckeyeCoinGuy Pillar of the Community United States 711 Posts	Posted 08/08/2015 12:38 am You can get a fairly nice raw $10 Indian for just over melt value. Melt is roughly $530 today. Say maybe $550 - $600 for a raw nice coin, nice not being a technical term. Only buy off someone you really trust. Realize there are lots of coins out there, and be patient and don't get ripped off. I think the US $5 and $10 gold coins are the best US coins for the budget buck. If you just want to dip your toe into gold you can check out a Mexican 2 Peso or 2 1/2 Peso Gold coin. Those go for melt value or not much more. My LCS typically has these 2 Peso coins for just above melt. Melt value is just over $52 dollars. He is probably $60 retail at the moment. Roughly the size of a dime if it helps. Call it just under 1/20th of an ounce. Report this Post to the Staff
