Coin Guy Seeking Info on Bullion Gold Coins

First time visitor here on the Precious Metals forum - but I recognize a number of coin forumites' names here....
Anyway, a friend of mine is interested in acquiring some gold bullion in coin form, and wants to know best places to buy
and what competitive prices are for American Eagles and Buffalos.
One price he found is $90 over spot for these, a little less (~$75) if he opts for Maples and K-rands.
Is this 'typical', at least right now? I do not expect him to be a big volume guy, probably looking to acquire a handful, at
least initially.
Are Eagles and Buffs the best way to acquire bullion - as far as liquidity, value, etc?
I appreciate any all help - thanks!

Best price would probably be by a B&M, given that he has one around.
Otherwise, you can tell him to check the following websites (I sorted by my preference).
ProvidentMetal
GoldMart
Goldeneaglecoin
Gainesville
Apmex
Regarding liquidity and value, it depends on what he is looking for.
I found the 1/10 and 1/4 ozers to be more liquid if one has to sell.
Though, there is demand for the full ounce as well at these levels.
AGE are the best for the american market. Krugerrand are the best worldwide, imo.
Best,
Ray

Always shop around a little before buying.
Eagles, Buffs, or Maple Leaves are all good choices.
Fractionals will always carry a higher premium per oz.
Welcome!
I knew it would happen.
a misunderstanding.
I prefer US gold. IF shtf, my belief is you will have less problems converting.
Your milelage may vary.
