Is this a good deal? I know nothing about numismatics. I saw this ad on craigslist and the prices seem way high. Am I wrong, or just uninformed? http://phoenix.craigslist.org/for/719748258.html MS64 GOLD - 4 Coin set - 3 Indian and 1 St. Gaudens $20 - $1 (Metro Area - Phoenix) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to: sale-719748258@craigslist.org Date: 2008-06-14, 10:48AM MST I have for sale 4 Gold coins.

Re: Is this a good deal? The prices are taken directly from the most recent PCGS price listings, and are fairly accurate. Most people would probably try to pay a little less, though.

Re: Is this a good deal? numismatics aside, why are you thinking of buying these ? ( if i may ask ) 1 resale in the future to a coin collector after TSHTF*, people may not care about numismatic value, just how many gold ozs 2 gold investment for post-SHTF seems pricey if you're just looking for gold ozs * - if you believe SHTF is coming imho

Re: Is this a good deal? I'm not buying these, I'm strictly bullion. I just saw the ad in the local craigslist and wanted to ask the numismatic crowd here at GIM if these prices are typical. I understand a 1000 yr old coin being that expensive, but a 90 yr old coin? :confused_ma:

I see it the same way. That is why I am stricktly into bullion and not numismatic investing. Although I prize old coins I just don't see the values that most investors pay as realistic. To each his own. I guess if I was rich then it would be a different matter.

Re: Is this a good deal? Unless he finds a diehard and I mean DIEHARD fan of the coin He will NEVER get anything even remotley close to those prices listed by PCGS/NGC. People are wising up IMO. T

Re: Is this a good deal? IMVHO it is a ripoff, keep shopping around.

Re: Is this a good deal? The PCGS and NGC prices are retail prices...that a rip-off coin shop operation would charge. The real "market value" of slabbed US gold is what ebay sellers charge.
