Hello steemers, today i went out to my not so local coin shop. I was so disappointed when i got there... No silver..... what? a coin shop with no junk or cheap silver. He had some numismatic coin but i was looking for some bullion. He saw i was a little upset and offered me a deal on some gold. I was happy with the offer but only brought enough money for around 8 to 10 ounces of silver. I couldn't buy much gold with that but i did score one piece.
Here's what i picked up.
I bought this coin for 5 dollars over spot and was happy with that deal. It's a 2017 American Gold 1/10 Eagle. Everyone knows this classic coin and is accepted world wide. The obverse features Lady Liberty walking confidently against the sun’s rays and the date.
The reverse shows a male bald eagle in flight carrying an olive branch to his nest, where a female awaits with her young. It also has it's weight 1/10 of an ounce fine gold and it's value $5.00.
Don't get me wrong i was happy with my deal on a little piece of gold but i was dreaming Silver. Hope you enjoy my post. Thanks for stopping by and viewing. I'am a proud member do the #steemsilvergold and @ssg-community.
I'll get a tenth ounce Gold Eagle when the opportunity presents itself. Nice score.
Thanks, i like gold just being funny
Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold
Thanks
Your title made me laugh.
while gold is good, I feel that it just isn't an adequate substitute for the silver bug -- 'stackitis' lol.
Glad you got a laugh, i'll trade it for silver later lol
$5 over spot is a good deal my friend. Atleast you have an LCS somewhat close.
Thanks, i found another one but it's twice as far.
That was a fine deal. Only $5 above spot in a fractional coin makes me happy. Congrats.
Thanks, me too
These never get old. Great investment. They are very liquid! Nice addition and good price...
Thanks, I'm working on a roll. Still a ways to go
