  1. For me today, to give you an example, on a 1/4 oz ML, there is a 5$ CAD diff on new or random, so i keep picking the new, i even added a ding, now i know how it feels🤨

    1. Yeah… $5 isn’t enough to roll the dice on random for me. Not that it’s a huge deal. It’s just less to think about.

  2. This is probably the third or fourth time watching this video while making dinner or changing the oil or whatever, but shit, everything you’ve ever shown on camera has been super entertaining and really nice. You’re the Big Boy round here so buy what you want and tell all the “OMG there’s a scratch!” nerds to go pound sand.

  3. 3:00 “circulated” gold makes me think of the Au vending machines in Dubai. For those times when you get a craving for a KitKat and 10g gold bar.

  4. In my 20’s so a little new to gold. Question: I didn’t know the year of a coin could make such a difference like 5% is there a threshold for the age of a coin. For example a 10 year old should be a certain percent cheaper or gold is gold no matter the year?

  5. I think it depends on the price differential, for $20 on a $2K coin, I’d go for specified year/BU. But- I haven’t bought many coins nor gotten into any arguments with sellers as to coin condition on arrival, so maybe I know nothing about this issue. Some of the disclaimers are horrendous though, such that one could run over the coin with a cement truck and it would be ‘as described’!

  6. I truly appreciate your commentary in all your videos. I’m relatively new to stacking. I must say you seem to be My Go To ✨

  7. I’ve often wondered if the condition really made that much of a difference when it comes to stacking straight bullion coins, not numismatic coins.

  8. If you read this I would like your take on the following. I was looking at some buffalos an hour ago trying to decide on a few 2022 Brilliant Uncirculated buffalos for $1913 ea versus Random Year Brilliant Uncirculated buffalos for $1888 ea, for a savings of $25 ea. Since both descriptions say “Brilliant Uncirculated” I would lean towards getting a few of the random date coins. Based on your experience, do some dealers play loose with the descriptions or is this scenario typical? Here are their words: (Spot is $1808)
    $1913 – 2022 1 oz American Gold Buffalo Brilliant Uncirculated .9999 Fine 24kt
    $1888 – 1 oz American Gold Buffalo Brilliant Uncirculated .9999 Fine 24kt (Random Year)
    $1886 – 1 oz American Gold Buffalo – Spotted / Scuffed .9999 Fine 24kt (Random Year)

    1. I don’t buy coins marked as scuffed or “light abrasions”, but I would buy the random dates and sometimes those have slight imperfections (most of my Buffalos do). I’m only concerned about a coin being perfect if it’s a collector coin. Cheers!
