According to the ad in the WSJ. Please also note that the 1908 double eagle was minted only in 1908...

Smitten with DBLCs.

    Good to know. There’s no truth like the truth in advertising!

    Anyone who actually believed that would be buying, not selling.

    Exactly right - if I knew something was about to triple in price, the last thing I would want to do is tell anybody about it. I'd be too busy buying up all I could.

    That is not a cheap ad.

    This does not look like an ad that should appear in the WSJ. I have a lot of doubt they are really selling even one morgan at less than wholesale. These ads are exceedingly expensive and not conducive to giving away valuable coins.

  • cladkingcladking Posts: 28,656 ✭✭✭✭✭

    In fact these ads are so expensive that giving away 100 gold coins and 500 silver dollars is pretty cheap in comparison.

    I wager a lot more "gold guides" go out than gold coins.

    Exactly. They want to get your contact information so they can pester you with sales calls. It's not worth it. Some will buy the one coin per household using their correct mailing address but give them a fake phone number.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    I'm thinking once tshtf and the dollar is valued based on all the federal debt it could be much, much higher! And those stacking and holding lots of PM will be richer than Midas or Croesis!!!

    They'll try to sell you MS/PR70 fractional "rare" gold later for inflated prices. Typical WSJ shills.

    The 1909 was only made for 1 year too.

    It is against the law to call people with whom you have no business relationship.

    Not buying a coin from them because they are or claim to be "sold out" does not constitute a "business relationship". Surely no American company would openly flout US law or just send their business to India!

    They're going to get tens of thousands of calls but they aren't going to send out nearly as many "gold guides".

    Good catch,

    My first thought was 'didnt they make a NM in 1907 ??'

    It's all about what the people want...

    They are $2400 in Good condition. If it’s too good to be true…..🤔😂

    If the gold market were to find its real price, we would be much higher than we are now.

    Not exactly, premiums are low right now and 1908 is the least desirable date, just 2 days ago I bought a common date in ms63 for $2000.

    It's very simple. It's called "turnover". No business, except ctferrorcoins, wants to sit on inventory for a couple years for it to go up. If I have an annual turnover of 10 and a 10% margin, I do 300% in 14 months. Same yield and lower risk.

  • TwoSides2aCoinTwoSides2aCoin Posts: 44,291 ✭✭✭✭✭

    300% ? Probably at the U.S. Mint. :joy:

    Manipulating, price fixing .... Hyping .... Those buying the hype are the ones getting burned. See previous post.

    This ad is deceptive and fraudulent and would probably run afoul of SEC regs if it referenced a stock....but for an asset class in general, it's not illegal. Slimy but not illegal.

    My point is that the folks who put out this ad are a bit like some gold bugs who talk about coming hyperinflation, gold or BitCoin soaring, or banking or Fed money printing conspiracies. I see their websites all the time.

    It's okay when I do it. LOL.

    To be fair, he's only calling for a 100% increase in MS65 prices based on a 50% increase in gold prices.

  • coinpalicecoinpalice Posts: 2,453 ✭✭✭✭✭

    gold would actually go up over 300 percent in a hyperinflation type setting, which is a reality after what happened the past few years, just be glad your not young

  • davewesendavewesen Posts: 6,140 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I wonder how many (of the 100) double eagles actually sold at their price listed? Who would know if they told everyone that the allotment has already sold out to get them on a client list?

    One shouldn't buy gold for a profit. If you're lucky you'll never make a profit. Gold is the only insurance against gambling leaders and a FED that gets rich printing money and increasing borrowing. Bankers have always run the economy and they have always found a way to bankrupt the people through debasement and inflation in the long run.

    Don't worry about the bankers, no matter what happens they'll profit.

    While everything including all prices are micromanaged by the government now days there are still fundamental forces pushing prices in one direction or another. Sometimes thing have to readjust. Gold should readjust to the $2700 level before the government stops it.

    Silver, on the other hand, is in structural deficit at a time that demand is increasing geometrically.

  • pmh1nicpmh1nic Posts: 3,276 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Mixed feelings. I would rather have gold going up than down since I own some but a dramatic rise means a dramatic fall somewhere else in the economy that probably is not very good for most of the population.

    The longer I live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice is it possible for an empire to rise without His aid? Benjamin Franklin

    I do believe gold can rise to $3,000 by 2030 without it accompanying bad economic times.

    It's only 7% a year....it's not the 1970's when it went up 20-fold in 8 years (40% a year for 8 years, conservatively).
