Sorry I can't help you, ma'am, I don't like carrying that big a rubber check around.

I agree completely, Fredd. Taking a check for PMs is something that can be worked out between a dealer and a regular customer AFTER having done several successful deals and only if BOTH of them agree to such terms. This is one of the benefits from working with a local dealer and getting to know each other. Fly-by-night one-time customers need not apply.

As for myself, I have no interest whatever in cheating anyone and even less interest in getting into it with the local police over a bad check. I'm one of those old-fashioned guys whose word is his bond. Make a fair deal, pay a fair price, look the other guy in the eye, and shake hands on it. With the right folks involved, that's better than ANY paper contract between strangers.

Yeah, I know that there are a lot of folks out there who do not think or act this way. The way we act, though, is what makes us who we are and I have no desire to be less than I can be. If they do, then shame on them.
Rest in Peace

So any advice for that or is all gold bullion coins considered collectable?

Anything someone collects is collectable.

A more accurate way to put it is "most gold coins are bullion".

ebay is the fastest. Some large bullion dealers are the slowest. If I was buying 7 or 8 one ounce bullion coins I would go with someone like APMEX or Goldline simply because they know what they're doing and have a lot to lose if they screw up. I also believe the larger dealers have developed a fool-proof delivery system that seldom goes wrong and always includes notification that the order has shipped and a tracking number with signature verification of delivery. I sure do love opening the box revealing those beautiful one ounce gold coins.

If you're looking for a reputable dealer, either Gainesville Coins or Provident Metals offers a great selection at competitive rates. The more popular coin, the higher premium you're going to pay. If you're looking to buy for strictly investment purposes, consider bars, Gold Maples or Kruggerands. American Gold/Silver Eagles and a few others are in such high demand these days, they're fetching pretty high premiums (if you can get your hands on them!).

Yeah, I bet!

I haven't had that experience... yet... but have had the thrill of opening nice tubes of ASEs, Kennedy 1/2 dollar proofs, and some Roosevelt dimes... all good stuff. The sight of gold in the box would be pretty amazing, though. Would love to have a 40-coin tube of 1/2 oz. AGEs someday.
