My boss have customers who are buying gold coins and bars from him. I looked at one and its very pretty and tempting but ofcourse the prices are around $450s... 1oz coins are higher in price than the bars. Is this because collectors buy it? Does collecting these 1oz coins the same as collecting any other coin? With grades etc. These $50 coins. I guess I'm looking for any info or opinion that anyone might have. Nothing specific.

I have noticed time and again that several countries ask way over fair price for gold coins and bars
In Belgium coins on the official list are sold in XF or better for 1.5% over melt
I can get american eagles, canadian leafs, australian nuggets and of course SA krugers at this price
On top of that I can get pounds, 20 french francs, belgian 20 francs
suisse 20 francs dutch 10 guilders etc
The only coins that have a premium are MS in some coins MS in suisse francs eg do not commend a premium
I attach official interbank prices
For private persons add one euro per coin

Take a look at the Australian Nuggets, these gold coins come in:
Weight face value
1/20 oz $5.00
1/10 oz $15.00
1/4 oz $25.00
1/2 oz $50.00
1 oz $100.00
2 oz $200.00
10 oz $1000.00
1 kilo $3000.00
So there is a gold coin for collectors in every price range.
Value is good and design changes each year.
