Changeless Valued Member 273 Posts	Posted 02/26/2011 2:56 pm I assume this is worth it's weight in gold (1/4 ounce). But any collector value? (almost uncirculated) -- If I wanted to sell it for the gold value... would I take it to a bank? ebay? Dealer? .... I am clueless. (including clueless whether this is the right forum for this kind of question). Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 02/26/2011 4:15 pm Gold American Eagles usually trade at a slight premium to their melt value. You've got a 1/4 ounce gold piece with about $350 in gold in it. It's worth that as a minimum and maybe $400 in RedBook retail price. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Changeless Valued Member 273 Posts	Posted 02/26/2011 4:50 pm THANKS for the response. Is it obvious how little I know? So let's see, since it is currency the bank would give me $10.00, so that leaves finding a private buyer I guess. (sometimes I surprise myself). Report this Post to the Staff
magicalmke Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 02/27/2011 6:43 pm These sell pretty well on ebay. Although you'll have to pay some fees, you should get market value. Not sure how much a dealer would pay you, but I usually find ebay to be the best place to get value. Especially if you have good photos, which the ones you posted are. Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 02/27/2011 8:34 pm I wear a 10 dollar gold coin in a pendant on my necklace. I actually have two of them, one with a black onyx background and another with the bezel the same size as the coin. The one with the black onyx was actually my wifes but she gave it back to me when we split up Report this Post to the Staff
