Gold sold now, but still have a frosty DCAM 2008-W proof silver eagle in gov't pkg...FSH or swap for

I sold the modern gold that was in this thread last night (fast-flipped it like I'd hoped), but I still have one piece of new bullion coinage left over from some stuff that came in yesterday.

It's a 2008-W Silver Eagle proof in government packaging. The outer box top is mismatched, from an UNC box, but otherwise everything is just as it came from the mint earlier this year. The little velour clamshell case, inner capsule, certificate, etc. are all there.

I paid thirty bucks for it even though I didn't much need it. The customer who brought it in was a disabled veteran with mounting medical bills, and hey, it's Veteran's Day. I'd have been a weasel to offer the guy spot price for it.

Anybody want this coin for $36 delivered, or wanna swap me something older for it? It's lovely, but moderns aren't my cuppa tea and boxed coins like this take up too much room in my display cases.

    I think you were at market for the unc. gold, and a little over the market on the proof gold. Recent sell offers on C.C.E. for 1/10 A.G.E.'s has been at spot + 15%-16%. The P.G.E.(w/box & COA) has recent C.C.E. buy offers of spot + $200-$225/ounce.

    I think you did a good thing LordMarcovan by giving the vet a little extra and not just spot or below spot. Two thumbs up

    Thanks, y'all.

    It kinda figures, 'cause I often succumb to the flash of proofs. Those are often the only modern coins that will turn my head. (Of course, gold doesn't have to be proof to be appealing, but proof and gold together is a mighty nice looking combo, I think. Modern or not.)
