Paid $4,500 for this 2.5 oz slug ten years ago - 6 minted. Now with gold just passing $3,500/oz, melt is $8,750!

Nice move, comrade! Nice coin too!
I knew it would happen.
and we know it can go for more than that
(i'm happy and scared)
congrats to you, tho
It's says only $5000 dollars.
You got it for $500 less.
You would of more than doubled had you just bought the real deal. RGDS!

Wooooha! Did someone just say it's officially "TACO™" Tuesday????
That’s a beauty. I’ve never seen that one before.
Good time to own some gold for sure.

It is real gold. Your insinuation is absolutely false.
In fact, I can attest to the content since I made it. And, on top of that, they tend to be a little over-weight.
With only 6 minted, you have no clue what sort of premium it would attain at auction.
As far as I know, not a single one of my 2.5-oz gold octagons has ever been in a public auction.
Do you know who personally fabricated your gold ? How much of your gold is fake and/or hollowed out and filled with tungsten ?
In the case of this item, I melted the gold, rolled it out, and struck the piece myself. So I know it is good gold.

10 years ago GLD was 115. Today is 315 but one would have had to endure a 0.40% annual fee. Lol.
Knowledge is the enemy of fear
By real deal you mean a 1915-S $50 Pan Pac Octagon(?) In MS66 (highest graded), it would set me back $275,000 if bought in 2015. Today that same coin and grade is valued at $275,000. Ten years, no gain. I'll stick with DC's 'slug'.

I'm surprised the premium has been maintained.
My point exactly. RGDS!

I meant like 2.5ozt of real gold coins..... common double eagles, AGEs, Krugs, Maples etc. I'm not knocking you at all, while fantasy tokens are not my cup of tea all that matters is that you like it. If it were mine it would have been on the way to the smelter by now.
10 years ago we were buying gold eagles from APMEX on ebay at right over $1200 (with bonus ebay bucks). Anyone remember those? Well more than a double, that's all I was saying. RGDS!

How much money have you thrown away over the years by sending rare gold coins/tokens/medals to the smelter ?

I remember the 'bucks, they were a great incentive.
DC's fantasies aren't my only rodeo, I bought an array of U.S. gold 10 years ago too. All my common dates have doubled as well and then some, however, my MCMVII HR I bought in 2015 has only inched up a few thousand bucks, then again, it's one of the most expensive 'common' gold coins out there.
Btw, my av is a pairing of my HR and DC's '1906' double eagle concept from ASG's renderings.
