I am looking at some certified gold coins in roughly 1/4 ounce size. For comparison I have modern gold eagle at exactly 1/4 ounce, gold half eagles at .242. troy, and gold sovereigns at .2354 troy. What I am seeing is the modern eagles are almost a 20% premium, half eagles at 17%, and sovereigns at 13%. To me the sovereigns seem to be the way to go but wondering is there a reason sovereigns are cheaper in the US?

The %'s are based on total cost versus spot (i.e. if spot value is $300 and coin is $400 then 1/4 or 25% is the premium)

Most people prefer the coins of their home country, hence the home market gets the better price.

Makes sense and would probably work on reselling

The difference between modern 1/4's and older half eagles could just be the small sample size I looked at
