There are mega threads for Barbers, Seated, toners and several other types but for the life of me I can't find one for US gold. So, here it is. Share your U.S. gold. Let's see some eye candy.
I'll start things off with one I don't think I've posted before. Nice circulated war era S mint type 1.

Since you said mega, I’ll just post them all. Almost all are CAC.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.

Micro gold for the mega gold thread😉

The 49.04 Troy Ounce U.S. Assay Office gold bar I used to own as part of my birth year collection, which also includes coins dated 1850 because why not?
Here’s a couple more that weren’t included in the Wayte Raymond collage I posted earlier
Mr_Spud
And I might as well add this too. I’ve posted it before, so sorry for that, but I thought it fit good into this thread.
It’s one of my coin photo art projects I’m working on
I recently turned that into this

It is standard 3-inch diameter, 76.2mm. Only 38 were minted in Philadelphia. Not a pocket piece.

I wish I had bought one of the 12 ounce gold Bicentennial medals.
The last Bicentennial I am aware of went for close to 30k recently with gold under $1,800 but it was a MS63. The MS64 NGC is way overpriced that has been out there for a year or so, IMO.
I really hope to get one someday, but very few show up for sale in gem++, in spite of the fact they have a mintage of 438, or 11 times what these Young Astronauts medals had.
