  • čas přidán 26. 07. 2023
  • Which gold coins are the best deal in terms of purchase price and buy back price? The buy to sell spread will show you the cost to buy vs the price you get in a sale, ultimately telling you what the best deal is. I'll show the math in this one. There are other considerations as well making some of the choices better regardless of the math.

      Agreed. This is why I call this channel, "The Adult Gold & Silver Channel". No whining, no sniveling, no end of the world, and no one pushing PMs to buy
      from them, etc. Yes, there is a sponsor of the channel but from what I have seen over the past couple of years, 2is1 has integrity and it is NOT for sale.
      The sponsorship is simply a business deal and one of the better ones, without compromise. That I deal primarily with that sponsor also does not hurt. 😉

    Insurance has a premium no matter what, whether its Allstate or Gold. Bullion dealers and higher volume coin shops are ruled by the refiners they sell to. What they pay you for a bar or coin is determined by what they can get for it. If you're willing to pay a premium on all the things you buy in life, the premium on precious metals seems minute.

      Yes, it is, and as time passes, the importance of the premiums paid shrinks to insignificance. I keep detailed records of all my PM purchases, but I have to say that
      if I wanted to know what the premiums were on gold that I bought below $1500 an oz., I would have to look that info up because I surely do not remember, off hand.

    I’ve actually got some from all 7. Mostly the US coins, followed by maples. One thing I’ve learned in the short 2 years I’ve been stacking is coin recognition is important when it comes to selling. At least that is what I’ve heard. I’ve never sold. So while I might pick up an odd ball silver coin for fun, not with gold.

      Thanks Michael! I've done it a few times (and made a few videos). It's a funny topic, though. People come out of the woodwork to charge the hill. Some of them have pitchforks and torches. The part most don't like is that dealers typically factor in premium whether they itemize it or not. You don't trade along the ratio. You sell your silver to them and buy the gold from them, paying premiums twice. If you're okay with that part, it's pretty easy. Cheers!

    It's like property investment. You have taxes and maintenance out the door. Hold long term and maintain is the only way to realize a profit. The difference with property is that you can make improvements during the holding period that could help long-term gains but may not. The maintenance and taxes of a property could be compared to safe handling and secure storage of your metals... Either way, there's investor/flippers, long term holders, dealers/agents, and then there's the people who use every dime to get something and hold it for life if they are able.

    If and when I start purchasing gold, I'll be leaning towards the Canadian Maple Leaf, I think. I live very close to the Canadian border, and their quality and security features make the U.S. Mint's look like the joke that they are. Besides, at a slightly lower price than Eagles or Buffalos, I could also pick up a little silver for the same total amount as for just those, and that doesn't seem like a bad thing.

    So just as a math exercise, currently spot is 1946
    1oz eagle at jm bullion is 2058
    Difference is $112
    112/2058= .054
    So in this example, its an even better deal since its 5.4% instead of the example 6%, assuming my math exercise is correct

      Nothing wrong with that at all. I have a mix of AGEs, gold Maples, and a few gold Britannias. I like the low cost of the Britannias and the security features as well as
      the 4-9s purity. I like the Maples because I live in a northern state where Canadian coins are quite common. I also like the AGEs quite a bit and would sell them last
      during hard times. I don't care for the buffalo design, even on a nickel, so don't collect them. I would consider buying some pre-1933 US gold coins if I could get them
      at reasonable prices.

    1/4 - 1/10 Britannia and Krugerrand are my favourite. I accept I pay a higher premium for fractional but I like that I don't need to sell 1oz of gold if I ever need some cash. And I don't know if this is true or not but I believe shops/people are more "willing" to buy smaller fraction of gold because the potential buyer pool is much larger if we're talking about a 200-500 coin compared to a 2000 coin. So I have hope that I'll get some of the premium back when selling it.

    I know local options are the best but I can't seem to stop buying American coins. The Maple Leaf is beautiful but I see that same obverse on all my pocket change. At least I can avoid tax if I get Buffaloes. I'm in the US on vacation so I'm probably coming back with some new Buffaloes to add to the herd. Thanks!

    Yet another hand goes up from the back of the class, this time from the intellectually-challenged kid. Can you explain to us, professor, why you don't stack any gold bars when they have a lower premium? Is it liquidity upon sale, premium spread, security features, something else? All of the above? Otherwise, another fantastic video, thank you!

      When I started, dealers would break them out of the assays to run acid tests on them. That left them with non-assayed, second-hand bars that were hard to sell, so they weren't popular with buyers and their buy-back prices were really low. Today, most dealers have high-end scanners and can test pretty easily. Popularity hasn't caught up yet, probably because the U.S. Mint doesn't produce bars. But I'm more open to them now than I was when I started. I just haven't had a big reason to jump yet. Cheers!

    You didn't mention the benefit of the lower initial cost allowing for a larger quantity purchase over time. If the goal is to hold for the long term with the hope that the spot goes up appreciably, well then every ounce matters. Regarding fractionals, everyone overlooks $5 gold US Mint Commemoratives which can often be purchased for a 4% premium, but I understand that may be difficult for everyone to access. For most investors in PMs, I think your advice is wise. 😎

    • @2is1gold
      @2is1gold  Před rokem +1

      I think for most people, buying what's easiest to sell is the best plan. Like you point out, Commems aren't widely available or widely understood (i.e., popular). I have a local dealer who sells $5 Commems for fire sale prices unless he has a line of people wanting them at any given time. He's said before that he doesn't like the odd size for inventory purposes, so he sells a handful of coins for a point or two over spot. There's probably more than that going on, but he sells Roosters, Sovereigns, Commems, etc. that way. His buy back on those options, though, is terrible - 5% or more back of spot last time I checked. It was worse pre-2020. My concern would be how they'd sell in a time gold wasn't hot. They're for people with a specific plan. Cheers!

    I've ALWAYS been confused on the TIME FRAME to those limits on selling AND buying.
    Same type of question I have when buying. I'm told to remain UNDER the$10K cash before triggering a report that has to be filed.

      It varies of course on the buyer, the volume, and the product. The U.S. Mint publishes its wholesale prices. For 1 oz gold coins, it's 3% over spot with a minimum order of 1,000 ounces. Silver Eagles are $2.35 premium per coin with a minimum of 25,000.

I exclusively have one ounce coins. Even when spot prices take a dip, I choose to wait until I have the funds to make a one ounce purchase. I don't have anything against fractional gold, it's just a better value for the full ounce so I choose to wait.
