My gold coin collection

Here's my gold coin collectoin. I apologize as the quality of the pictures is poor. I'll take some better later. Some of these coins were generousily give to me by people on these forums. I will post thanks to them later as I get their names.

Far left:
1998 MS-69 1/10 oz. PCGS american gold eagle. Almost a MS-70. Got it free from a forum memeber. Will post specific name later.
Center(left): 1/4oz. american eagle. 1997. Price: $89
Center(Below): 1/10 oz. proof american eagle. Free from LoanShark. Thanks again loanshark. (It came in a special mint packaging velvet case, with certifcate)
Center(Up): Not a coin; but a gold nugget. Geniune gold nugget got it as a birthday present a few years ago. I had another but lost it down the sink drain. Apparently cost my grandpa $10
Center(Right): 1/10 oz. .9999 pure gold maple leaf. The coin looks alot better than the photo (I know it's hard to see), the coin is actually most likely above gem uncirculated. Die polish visible with naked eye. Just a beautiful coin. Price: $40
Far right: ~1/4 oz. great britian 1913 sovereign. ANACS NET AU-55 UNC details. It got netted for a nasty scratch on it. Probably my most valueable coin.

    You shout in your sleep.
    Perhaps the price is just too steep.
    Is your conscience at rest if once put to the test?
    You awake with a start to just the beating of your heart.
    Just one man beneath the sky,
    Just two ears, just two eyes.

  • Goldcoinlover,
    I knew I recognized that coin. Glad you are enjoying it...even if it came from an "elderly" person. Let me know if I can help in the future.

    The only "gold" coins I can afford came from

    National Collectors Mint

    Sure are pretty!
    Less then $25. ea so you can afford to give them away! I bought 5. As you can see, there is no "COPY" or reg number stamped on them. The only difference between these and the real one is these are 24k gold plated and the reverse sun design is different.

    They are advertised as "legal currency" but haven't tried to buy a gallon of milk with one yet!

    Forgot to mention that the COA that comes with each one is certified by Barry Goldwater! I, for one, am impressed!
    Everything starts and everything stops at precisely the right time for precisely the right reason.
