I’ve always thought of small gold coins (fractional gold coins) as being way over-priced in terms of premium. But, I’m seeing some better deals lately. Is the 1/10th oz gold coin a legitimate option for stacking? I just picked up a 1/10oz American Gold Eagle, and I kind of like it. ๐ NOTE: I am not a financial planner. I’m just a guy on the internet, talking about precious metals. Always do your own research before buying gold or silver. ๐ SUBSCRIBE: http://youtube.com/c/2is1gold?sub_confirmation=1 ๐คฉ More info on gold coins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6000btaaiQg&list=PLf35LHMJWZxa0hZysyUcHla2BHduR_-bJ ๐ Top tips for newcomers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=md9cWf8-_1Y&list=PLf35LHMJWZxYFcwxxytOp_1NeRa2QD0Ux
๐น Too small? In a prior video, I compare 1 oz gold coins to 1/4 oz gold coins and talk about what size coin is the best to buy in different situations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKp3ECRlAFE&t=409s
Oh!! Great one ! Thank you !
I buy all sizes… all countries all fineness… ๐
And itโs very cool. I canโt operate that way, though. I had a room full of LEGO bricks separated by color, size, etc. until โmy sonโ outgrew them! ๐
I agree ๐ but would you buy into generic 1/10 gold rounds?
I don’t buy gold rounds, personally. My LCS has had a few recently.
Extremely useful info and video . You express yourself very well . Thank you !
Thank you!
Fractional better than the fire from the wife hahahaha
Yep! ๐
try Swiss 20 franks, or Austria 1 ducat soverines
Those Mexican 50 pesos are a nice looking coin but are really expensive since theyโre around 1.2 AGW. I have a few of the 20 peso coins which I like because they have the nice very detailed Mayan calendar on them, and are just under a half ounce (0.4823 AGW). Besides the lower cost the premium is also a lower percentage of the value than it is on the 50โs. Iโve had mine for a couple years now so they were a lot cheaper when I got them, but I see them online now for around $1000.
Yeah, maybe a good option. Thanks for watching!
Actually you got me thinking about possibly buying some gold again. So I was poking around on eBay last night I noticed APMEX actually had a 1/10 ounce gold Libertad, Itโs very similar to the design of the 50 peso but of course not exactly the same. You might consider one of those as a more affordable alternative.
My strategy exactly. I call it the poor mans gold.
I thought silver was poor manโs gold! ๐
If you put the 1/10th oz coins in the capsules they feel bigger lol!
Definitely!
First year of stacking and I picked up 4oz with varying fractional of 1oz, 1/4 oz, 1/10, and 1g. I think from now on I’ll stick to quarter and halves with the option to convert to a whole 1. Thank you for your content, I’ve been binging it.
That’s great! And, thanks for watching!
The fact that you notice the coin is beat up is the same reason I avoid beat up coins. I want to be able to sell to you one day, and if you don’t want beat up coins, then I don’t want beat up coins. Spot on (no pun) on recouping the premiums on the fractional. Hopefully your kids will have a guiding instrument to let them know what that shiny little coin is, ha! Well at least you’re teaching them correctly. Nice work, dad. We are cut from the same mind-changing cloth.
Itโs somewhat alarming how quickly I forget the message of a video – had to rewatch this one. I definitely pick up coins I think will be very easy to sell. And I think itโs more likely that my kids will be the ones doing the selling. Thanks, Vert!
Just ordered 2 quarter ounce Maples. Very excited!!!
@2 is 1 I am up to 2 one ounce eagles a one half ounce eagle I am saving for a one ounce Maple and I feel like I’m off to a good start! Love the videos and you turned me on to the Maples!!
Thatโs great. Youโre looking at the right coins!
Fractionals are really handy. Sure, you pay a chunk over spot so i only buy them in the dips but they are what i call my travel coins. I like qtrs.
When im on business abroad i always carry a couple, that way it’ss instant cash to tide me over until whatever drama has arisen sorts itself. It’s a trick i learned in the military and never forgot.
I like that idea.
Spot price is still 1800 two years later.
