I'm not trying to cause any trouble, but I'm confused about prices for classic gold coins.

I understand large numismatic premiums above melt value for certain coins. And I understand tiny premiums for common and circulated gold coins.

But I don't understand gold coins going for less than melt value. I was perusing bobby131313's store and there are nice-looking certified coins that seem to be destined to sell for less than their gold content.

Never having seen a greysheet, do these coins typically wholesale for less than melt? If so, why?

TIA for your insights.

I tried to contact Bobby through this site, but I got a message that said I didn't have enough posts to email a memeber.

Though it seems he may have answered at least part of my question (the part about auctions in general) in a previous post:

If anyone with a greysheet or experience in wholesaling gold can comment on whether gold coins wholesale below melt, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
