Last night I decided to try to pick up some gold. It was the first gold coin I have boughten but I had already been given two other smaller pieces. I was not really expecting to get it. I put in a bid of what Krause lists an UNC at and actually won. I probably shouldn't have bid on it but it looked too nice too pass up. I spent over $95 yesterday buying coins. I figure I have the right to do so though becasue on Friday I recieved my acceptance letter from Purdue University. I will be going to there campus in New Albany where I will be studying Graphic Design.image

    Darkside gold is a real value right now. Where else can you get an 80+ year old gold coin in BU for less than $50?

    Nice pick up, I think you benefited from the "low feedback seller" discount.

    More importantly, congratulations on your acceptance to Purdue! image

    Congratulations on Purdue, definitely worth a celebratory coin buy. Personally I can't think of anything much nicer than darkside gold image. Very nice buy.
