Gold Bullion

With that premium you should get at least an AGE. Most bars and Krugerrands are only 1% over on the secondary market.

You will be paying about 7% over the spot price for bullion gold coins. Of course the size of the coins depend because you will pay a little more for the smaller coins.

I sell at spot plus 3% in my shop. You shouldn't have to much trouble finding a similar deal.

There is indeed a wide spread in buying and selling gold bullion, and a news source just posted a very interesting gold comment: In the past five years central banks have cut their gold sales by 96%. So for every 100 ounces sold by governments just a few years ago, only four ounces are sold today. This is the kind of supply constraint helping to drive the demand and price underpinning on gold out the roof. So when buying that next ounce gold issue, imagine if the big great large whopping overwhelming infinite vast majority cut their bank sales by a factor of two. Only two ounces being sold now, as opposed to just a few years back. Makes the US issues seem like, well, Gold. Gives one pause wondering where it leads from here. People will quit buying at what price? I think there is a permanent fear factor now, and people are gonna be offering up to and including $2,000 an ounce. The dollar seems so compromised, what with all the bailouts. Unpatriotic as that sounds, imagine being a volume US paper bonds holder like China. Wow.
