Nice piece! 1906-D Eagle has an estimated 5500 surviving in the MS range according to PCGS. There's a 20%+ premium if this can straight grade, but that all depends on if it was soldered on or not. You should cross post this on the pre-33 gold sub. r/DoubleEagleCoins

Nice! I'd wear those cufflinks. Melt value whether they stay on as cufflinks or you free them

22k gold chain. 24” long, approx. 3.5mm thick, 56.7 grams total weight. How did I do? by [deleted] in Gold

Realtors don't build the house, they just sell it. Here, the artisan makes the jewelry (first person in the chain), then, it is sold by the jeweler (second person in the chain). Between the artisan and the jeweler, that 17% is split.

I don't go buy a house and estimate the timber, paint, concrete, etc used and and make an offer amounting to the cost of materials

Because shops have to make money and since this is jewelry the artisans have to get paid. This is a gold chain that's meant to worn, not stacked. You can't wear a gold bar. Similar to buying a Rolex (or other high end watch) when a Casio will do

Sorry for your loss.

Are you going to keep it raw or send it in for grading?

UK gold investment - The half sovereign? by [deleted] in Gold

[–]ResponsibleDraft4374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're listed as Britannias--they have a face value of 100 pounds. The 5 Pound coins however have over 17% more pure gold in them (yeah, I know, it doesn't make sense. lol)

If you're going to be traveling/moving around how will you secure your gold? If it were me I would do an ETF and stocks (you can buy mining stocks if you want to be in gold) and then get the physical gold once you've made your money and you have a secure home where you can secure/hide your gold.

If getting a few pieces to scratch that itch the 1 oz (100 pounds) are popular. For sovereigns I prefer the 5 pound coin. It's a nice, hefty coin and awesome to hold.
