Really you just need to check prices of two or three on line dealers🤔Gold can be at any price you like (or dislike), but if the dealers don’t react with price changes and availability then the charts are pretty irrelevant 🤔🤔

Absolutely. Take for example the people that deal in silver (as in tableware, ornaments etc, not coins or bullion) They have a price they pay and a price they sell for. They don't re-label all their stock for each antiques fair they attend depending on spot!

Because they have them in hand, the bullion ''dealers'' usually have very low stock (for 2-3 days worth of selling) their business is ''just in time'' business to the business model, whatever customers buy they order straight away to the main dealer so they simply pass the order and keep the profit.

No doubt some are, but tell that to the guy at an antique fair I went to who had two ice cream tubs full of sovereigns!🤔😮😁

Because he is not an online ''dealer''

Unfortunately not. I think he was a bit iffy, another dealer told me that the guy had his home burgled some time before and had high six figure worth coins stolen🤔

Sounds more sensible than iffy.

Nice its look more like a reverse bullion strike than a proof but this just might be how the US mints proof coins.

Moved to it's own topic as to not take the Gold Monitoring thread off course

I acquired 1 of these during the 2013 release from the US Mint.

The 2009 UHRDE is hands down the most beautiful and desirable coin from the US Mint (I have 4 of those acquired during the 2009 release).
