Thanks for the gold prediction contest PCGS

Since the original thread has been closed (temporarily?), I would like to thank PCGS for the contest and generous giveaway. Predicting the gold close a week before is very difficult. Just last Thursday, gold had near a $70 trading range and near 50 members have a guess covered by that day, I hope more 'contests' like this are held.

    My guess of $1961.59 is sooooo close to the over/under price this morning!

    I will be constantly checking the PCGS website for gold pricing almost as much as I check my online status of a PCGS submission as it moves to the QA stage waiting for my grades to be posted! 😎😂🤣🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

    Yeah, you guys are quite closer than my prediction. My prediction is $1984. It needs to climb a bit higher for me to have any shot
    Lol. Good Luck to all! Pretty cool on our host's part. Thank you, PCGS for the contest. :)
    Just as I posted this, Gold jumped almost $3. Exciting.

    Looking at the price right now, I’m about $4 away but there are 3 people within $2. I wonder how it’ll end up?

    I am dying! The price is dropping slowly......I feel like I spun the wheel on The Price Is Right and I need $1961.59.....🤣😂🤞🤞🤞

    Silly me. My guess was 1973.28 and there was someone else who guessed 40 cents above way before I entered.

    Oh man....yeah I have about a $2 cushion with my pick. Hey, at least we still have a shot! Good luck and enjoy the ride! Hopefully PCGS will offer a Top Ten consolation prize award for second through tenth😉😉😉. Just my suggestion Brett!😎

    Brett said closing price today. Is that 5 or 6 p.m. East Coast time?

    WQuarterFreddieWQuarterFreddie Posts: 3,312 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Sorry, I see it is 5 p.m. East Coast time.....I guess I will have to sell ALL of my gold hoard to bring the pricing down to $1961.59!😂🤣

    I thought I was golden! The rule, in the original post of the thread, with the link determining spot price must have changed. :'(

    I filed an objection for you! I posted on the OP that closing price should be $1968.30 per the link in the fine print 🤔 PLEASE HOLD ALL TICKETS!! IMHO this result is unofficial until Brett responds to my question 🤣😂🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎

    You are welcome. Fair is fair. Let's see if Brett responds to my post. To be clear I do not work for PCGS but I do pay attention to the rules. Maybe they will make you a co-winner😉🤞🤞🤞

    Picked up a couple 2020 gold eagles at spot price, today. I was over in the contest, but spot on in the shop.
