IS PRE 33 GOLD GOOD FOR STACKING?

- In this video I talk about pre 33 gold and I talk about if it is good for gold stacking or not. Pre 33 gold coins were minted by the US Mint before 1933. Pre 33 gold is still bought and sold today by gold stackers and coin collectors. Gold coins from 1837-1933 are made out of .900 gold. My personal pre 33 gold stack currently consists of a 1880 half eagle and that is it. I hope to be getting more pre33 gold in the future. The most common types of pre 33 us gold coins are the double eagle, the gold eagle, the half eagle, and the quarter eagle. Buying pre 33 gold can be done online or at a coin shop. The best pre 33 gold coins for stacking are the common dates. When is comes to pre 33 gold vs bullion I break down the pros and the cons in this video. Have fun gold stacking in 2020 and beyond!

There was also a $1 gold coin minted from 1849 to 1889 which contained .04837 troy ounces of gold. Also I meant to say 21.6 Karats for 90% gold 🔥🐉 Check out my video on gold eagles 👉🏽 czcams.com/video/3BEVMbj0OBs/video.html
Also a three dollar coin from 1854 to 1889, but they come at very high premiums even cleaned or damaged.
I’m addicted to stacking pre-33 gold.. i can’t get enough of it. Those $5 gold pieces are my favorite
Gold Is GOLD. They are great to have! Love those Pre-33!!!
Dude i just found out yesterday my dad stacks gold and silver now wich i think is awesome. I was at a family get together yesterday and idk if he knew before hand i stacked gold and silver as well but anyhow he called me over and was like i gotta show you some coins i got and at first i thought he had said corn and so i was thinking what the heck is my dad doing buying corn?! Hahaha lmbo but then he pulled out some coins he had bought out of his gun safe then i was like oh okay this is pretty awesome. Then he ask me if I had been buying any gold or silver and i said yes and told him what all i have and he said okay just pace yourself with it and dont buy too much but anyhow i thought that was pretty awesome to say the least. Now i know me and my dad have something in common
al sk8's wow that is so cool!!!! my dad has none 😂🔥🐉
4 years later I’m watching this! Now with spot being at all time highs, pre 33 is a great buy right now, especially with all the sales!
This is a fantastic video. I've seen these coins and I looked them but now I love them! I'll be able to acquire more fractional gold now.
Great video, thanks for sharing! I’m definitely more of a coin collector than stacker. I have a 1901 $10 Gold Piece graded MS62 and I love it!
What a very informative and great video. Thank you keep up the good work
Love that classic American Gold...great to stack in my opinion. I know they don't pull as much premium but you usually don't have to pay the high premiums either. When I order random dates and they send me a 1880, I am just so impressed with holding a 140 year old coin. Where has that thing been for 140 years??? Thanks SD...great video!!!
Pre 33 gold is beautiful, and like you said, the premiums are "usually" pretty reasonable. Great info, thanks for sharing!
Great video, very informational good job dragons keep it up!
Gorgeous gold coin, love your little video clips. Great job 👏
Thanks for the info! Very interesting!
Adding this to my "Community Classics" playlist. Very informative video with a lot of very good history and information. And personally...I consider pre-1933, sovereigns, and 20 francs as a staple for every serious gold stacker. Cheers!
been lovin' pre '33 since pre '86 and it don't lose its luster my friend
Nice! Thanks for this fun fact video 😄
First full video watch SD....nice review of pre 33 gold. You got a great one there 👏👏👏. I really like the history in my hand of my pre 33 gold coins
Silver Ripples nice thanks for watching the whole thing 😁🔥🐉
I love pre-33 gold. The historical value plus the designs are a winning combination. Yeah it's 90%, but still that's so close to a full ounce. Thanks for the video.
Great video. Thanks!
Great content bro
Nice video and history lesson. Thank you!
Upnorth Collector thanks for watching! 🔥🐉
Love your video. Pre 33 is a great value.
Love them. I have none of those. Can’t wait for the market to shake out the sky is falling people. Wish my guy was open so I could look. Thanks
I just picked up an 1881 1/2 Eagle NGC AU55. Cool coins!
Great video! keep up the good work! I would like to buy some pre 33 but it is easier to get some sovereigns or francs at spot price here in Europe.
This is such a helpful video. Had no idea about most of what was presented. I guess you are morphing into GoldDragons 33!
Big TX Bullion lol thanks for watching! 🔥🐉
5 hours of editing looks good. Thanks for last night
Nice video, bro! I plan to stack the pre-33 eventually. I want to complete a gold type set.🔥🔥🔥
Fiat Destroyer that is a great goal! 👍🏽🔥🐉
Adore this color and pattern, it's so magnetic!
It grabs you. The History is just icing on the cake. But it is recognizable straight away...
great video, I'd love to get my hands on a Gold Buffalo, but I might go with the $20 Pre-1933 Gold Coin
thosetwodudes both are great options!!! 🔥🐉
Good stuff
Awesome video. I seem to learn a lot from ya. Can’t wait to hold the coin in my hand. I do like to think of who held this coin, same with my constitutional silver along with Morgan and Peace Dollars. They all have a story to tell. Keep the videos coming!!
Silver Wookie Ot should be there shortly my friend I believe I sent the tracking. you might not know who all held it in their hand but you know I did 😂 I pumped out this video right before I packaged it up 🔥🐉
I avoided pre-33 stuff for many years. Now I’ll pick it up whenever I can get it at melt, regardless of condition, just to have that metal content and history.
Vertical Stacker oh yeah stack that weight! 🔥🐉
Yeah where are ya buying at melt buddy????
This is a really good video ... I appreciated the history content! One slight adjustment - you said that when people turned in their gold they would get fiat currency, well back then that was real currency not fiat. We didn't go off the gold standard until years later.
Braden right nixon took us off but remember they confiscated all of the gold certificates as well. I’m pretty sure banks wouldn’t give you gold anymore as it was illegal to own 🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 that's fine but silver currency you were paid in for your gold was still real money in the 1930s. It wasn't fiat money at that stage in history is my point.
That's correct, fiat currency is a modern day term. In fact most people that are 10 to 20 years older than me dont even know what fiat means.
I like the Mexican gold pesos a little more. The lettering on the edge is gorgeous. But I’m sure I will get into pre 33 sometime in the future
Gosh Dragons, while Gold is Gold and right now any Gold is in demand in a normal market it really just depends on what your local shops buy and sell them for. As you know these coins can be found on eBay for a good value but LCSs like mine aren’t keen on them so I’ve not bought any but they are beautiful and I see a place for them in a more mature stack. Great video.
IMHO the reverse of the Saint-Gaudens is the epitome of numismatic Art. Something about it just does it for me. Gotta get me some! Great Content again. Stay Safe Copper Dragon.....Oh thats right that was for April 1st only.
laughingcanine lol yes april fools only 😂🔥🐉
Totally agree. You can say the same for Europe. Except gold has never been illegal here. Any gold fulfilling the investment gold criteria at spot is good gold!
The background to Roosevelt's order is that the US in 1933 was under the gold standard, which Roosevelt ended. So gold ownership was a lot more widespread then and it made a lot of sense to a government (who wanted to restrict and control people's wealth) to issue a confiscation order.
7:22 you had me dead there XD
i love pre 33 most times get 5 and 10 $ at spot at my lcs and im the 1st comment!
Paul Myers that is awesome buy it all!!! 😁🔥🐉
Silver Dragons great video and very informative. I would prefer pre-33 gold because early American coins are much rarer than any modern issue bullion coin. They survived a lot longer and what stands out to me all gold coins before 1834 had more gold in them than their face value.
Pre-'33 gold is also known as Legacy Gold. I don't have any myself but my dad has a pre-'33 Eagle and Double eagle he had mounted on a gold pendent back in the eighties and I might be inheriting them when he passes. Don't forget silver was also banned in 1934 but of course silver coins were still allowed to circulate.
murp61 legacy gold yes for sure! 🔥🐉
Omfg LOVE the Austin powers reference with gold member so good
SgtKisame Keith lol 🔥🐉
Nice Coin. Yah I like your beliefs, on why pre-1933 Bullion is a good idea. Jealous of the Coin.
I love pre33 double eagles, especially from the mid 1800s as I cannot help but fantasize about what the coin I am holding has seen...
Much of the pre-'33 gold left the country after the Executive Order. The Kennedys, for example, shipped all their gold to vaults in Europe.
I love pre 33! Better for resale to get raw graded or not? Grade some and not all?
Awesome video Dragons!! Do you think that pre-33 gold is a good buy in 2024? And do you think that the foreign gold will be as valuable as the pre-33 gold coins one day soon?? Numismatic values or premiums keep rising in both foreign and pre-33 gold coins.😎👍
I love them
I love pre 33, European 20F and Sovereigns
I have some pre 33 gold (the oldest coin is close to 300 years old) but I don't have any US pre 33. I do have a couple of coins on my to buy list.
I said I am addicted to pre 33. I have no bullion. I just love the old stuff, they will be worth more than weight some day but I love my 90 too. Thank for this episode.
Not sure about stacking pre 33 but I did inherit several from my grampa many years ago.
I love gold so may look in to it Womble Stacker sent me over
i have a double eagle love it i had all the halfs and what not before but i traded it for pure once ounce thus i still keep the double eagle
I just saw an episode on "American Book of Secrets " about this. It was very fascinating.
Gina R that is super cool!!! 🔥🐉
I do and bullion and all across the board and silver and proofs ! I take them all !
Always stack pre 33, at least for me.. both Historical and investment purposes
An update video on grades of gold, cull, cleaned, av au bu etc. I noticed your's is a cleaned coin. good choices ???
Cant get enough of the 2.50 Indian Heads as well...
I'm back and forth between purchasing a $20 double eagle in either BU or AU. What do you recommend?
I’m new to this. Is there a reason to keep the coins in those containers? Won’t it still be the same amount of gold content even if the coins just gets a little dirty?
I started with gold before I got in to silver 68 gold coins then started to stack silver now I love my silver
Carson City gold coins are awesome! Right out of the gold camps of Nevada and California.
How much you bought the PRE 33?Where can i bought this coin?I LOVE IT...please help..
Another fun fact (if you don't mind me posting these) is that the gold collected by the Federal Reserve was melted down and turned into ingots for deposit into Fort Knox which I think was specially built for this purpose. Some interesting CZcams videos on the subject you can look up.
Just started looking at pre 33 now. Seems premiums are high. But they are so cool. Guess I will sleep on it.
Thank you for talking about this particular coin… I got ripped off by someone who sold it to me the same price as 1/4 gold eagle… I didn’t care really because like you I find the coin is beautiful. Mine is in a better shape than the one you showed. I am going to send this to NGC to grade. Do you think it’s a good idea? Anybody … you suggestion and recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Hi Sliver Dragons. Thank you for another great video. Why is Antiqued silver so expensive? How much more effort does it take to make a proof round instead of a BU? If you've already covered these in other videos let me know.
illustrious1 it takes more effort and usually those have a limited mintage so they jack up the price... SMH 🤦🏽♂️🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 Thank you for the info Silver Dragons.
YES!
$10 gold liberty eagle and Indian head over 1/2 oz American Gold Eagles all day, any day. I like the history behind them and love the design much more. The AGE is alright but very bland to me. Thanks for the video 👍🏼
Question its better buying a 5 gram gold bar or a pre 33 ? Since ithink 2.50$ its a 3.73 gram while 5 gram bar its of course 5 and price are alike for both .???
Pre 1933 gold coins had some great designs like the Saint Gaudens Double Eagle! But did you know that when the first 1883 V nickels came out, they didn't have the word cents on the back! So people were gold plating them and passing them off as 5 dollar gold pieces! No one realize at that time that they were nickels because all they had on the reverse was V, the Roman numeral for 5!
Ron Schneider what what a scam back then 😂🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47
Back then they didn't use the word scam but they used the word bamboozled! I was bamboozled or douped out of it!
The U.S. equivalent of the gold sovereigns. You can put a collection togeather with less worry of counterfits.
Got a bit tired of all the Sovereigns so I got my first pre 1933 American Eagle, also a Liberty Head, recently. I really like it and in case the economic situation allows me to contiue to stack, I will certainly get more of them. Really beautiful, my new favourite coin. I'm wondering though, what's the main size that people in the US stack? Quarter, Half, Full or Double? If you take the Sovereign, it's the full one, not the half, not the double, that most people stack.
hundertsterkunde seems to be a lot of people into the quarter and half eagles 🔥🐉
you can get pre-33 Austrian 100 Corona 90% gold coins for near spot very easily...They cost less than U.S pre-33 and contain more gold (.9806 Troy oz Gold weight per coin). They are a great stacking coin for those looking for weight only.
Gold Addict also you can say you got the corona and lived 🤷🏽♂️🔥🐉
I like US coins for their historical nature. I do have a $5 Indian from the 19teens and I'd like to acquire an Eagle and double Eagle from the 19th century.
On pre 33 spot price is one thing but a bu or au condition is more money and a great collectable
So what about gold $1 US coins from 1800s to early 1900s? Is that not considered pre 33?? I'm just curious
In my experience the modern commemorative half eagles (1984-current) can typically be had for less premium than the pre-1933 versions.
Also, there are Mexican equivalents that can be had for typically a little less premium:
2 pesos = $1 gold coin
5 pesos = $2.50 quarter eagle
10 pesos = $5 half eagle
20 pesos = $10 eagle
50 pesos = 1.205 ounces of gold, also called a "centenario" (no equivalent of double eagle, that I know of)
The 2 and 5 pesos are typically much cheaper than their US equivalents.
This is true , right now you can get gold billion coins for less than pre 33 gold.
WOW HOW THE TIMES HAVE CHANGED!!! They are so expensive now
In Europe, the best price for bullion gold I can get ranges around 54 EUR/gram with transport included. While an 1876 20 Francs Genie coin unc 58, cost me 55 eur/gram... Due to the high premiums on bullion gold , looks like a better time to actually buy gold numismatics, if you are a long term gold and silver stacking passionate, that numismatic value could increase and add up to the gold value quite nicely.
I do not have any and would love to have a collection. (have a California 2.5 token) 1973 My mom bought in WoorthWorths, Prob for sure a fake, but paid like $7.00 for it at the time.
I love 90%. You can gingle those in hand with no problems!! 😅😅😅
And I love the history they carry also.
But definitely not shiny as the pure 999.9 pieces.
🙂🙂
Silber47 yes cool but not as shiny 😁🔥🐉
I really like the 24 ^ gold got to be 4ninesfine👍
Why?
I have a couple pre 33's. Not much but its something
The st guadens and the indian are my favorite.😊i have found pre 33,s premiums are way more stable.granted if you get a nice one you may get stabbed on numistatic value but off dates and higher circ #,s there are deals.history is big ,like morgans.
All gold is good but I don't like having them myself. I like the today's 1/4oz gold. Canadian and American eagles. Perth mint coins. I can only get a 1/4 every 2weeks sometimes a extra 1/10oz if I work hard enough.
I like the designs on the pre 33 gold more than the gold bullion coins now. Don’t get me wrong the design in the gold coins now is nice but I like the pre 33 designs better.
I think one of the most important points that was missed in this video, stems off of the fact that the executive order also stated "gold coins having recognized special value to collectors of rare and unusual coins", which protected recognized gold coin collections from legal seizure and likely melting. This fact in itself is probably the most important factor when thinking about stacking in this economic climate and hedging against a potential future confiscation. Federal law clearly states even today, that any gold bullion can be confiscated in the event of national crisis.
I prefer pure gold coins, however I like pre 33 for the history and numismatics. So, I wouldn't mind getting more pre 33s.
I want to start stacking pre--33 gold coins, but I'm not sure which grade is the best to buy. I'm seeing a lot of VF, AU and MS61 coins online with a wide variety of pricing. Which grade is the best to start stacking? Should I buy an AU or VF, or go for the MS61? In the past I only stacked silver.
William Shea for me I would buy the cheapest I could. probably VF 🤷🏽♂️🔥🐉
Could you speak to the issue of selling pre 33 gold to a LCS or online dealer. How does that compare to selling modern gold coins?
Westender Days usually you get a bit less for it but you can sell private party as well 🔥🐉
I thought these pre 33 coins held more of a numismatic value myself. Then again there would be "key dates" to look for.
Another fun fact was that the Indian Head on the 1907 and later Eagles was not an Indian at all. The person who was the model for the coin was of Greek heritage from what I understand..
First the pre 33 US gold is a good stacking coin when you keep a couple of things in mind. First, only buy coins that are NOT cleaned and are in AU or BU condition. Next, do not buy coins with numismatic premiums or special rare varieties. The regular coins in the AU and BU condition are beautiful and fun to fondle and fawn over. Also, the coins in my mentioned categories will be much easier for you to sell at a good price. As far as numismatics ? Unless you are a top expert, you will simply get sucker punched on prices coming AND going.
Pre 33 gold tends to be a little to numismatic/collectible for me.. i like to hold my gold in my hands sometimes, look at it, admire it. the whole experience. I chose modern bullion coins because i can handle them a lot more guilt free :) Haha
I love pre 33 gold
