I never bought a gold coin before, but just spent a fortune on our new house and move, so figured I'd treat myself. Price seemed ok, plus got $35 ebay bucks with today's deal. How'd I do.

A very attractive little Dollar, and bought for well below market price. Great pickup :)

Beautiful coin! When I first looked at it I thought you paid right in the range that my PCGS app says it would be worth. But then I looked closer and saw it was Canadian dollars and so what you paid in US dollars is about $100 under the PCGS price. So you did well in my book. It also shows a ridiculous price jump between MS63 and MS64, so I think you hit the sweet spot on grade and price with this one.

Yeah, thanks, came to about $426 USD shipped after ebay bucks. Not saying I stole it, but.......did some Heritage research, and these are selling above $600 all day long.
