DOLLAR CAUSES VALUE LOSS IN THE U.S.A. DOLLAR ! People, please stop talking negative about the U.S.A. dollar. Yes, most of us agree that the dollar would be better if the privately owned Federal Reserve business would be replaced with Congress taking back their Constitutional right to print the dollar again as they did before the year 1913. * Please watch the video documentary called, 'THE MONEY MASTERS' by Bill Still. The U.S. dollar currency has value in most countries on this earth because modern day technology has made it almost impossible to counterfeit. Gold and Silver can be easily counterfeited ! It costs many thousands of dollars to own a machine that accurately tests Gold and Silver for counterfeits. * I personally own a little Gold and Silver as a novelty. By you and others criticizing the U.S.A. dollar pushes us faster towards a One World Order cashless digital currency money slavery system ! Please research past history from many hundreds of years ago on how Gold and Silver was made scarce by corrupt politicians. When Gold & Silver is made scarce it causes many, many problems. Send all the corrupt politicians that got the U.S.A in debt to communist China to have them pay off the debt in the China slave labor prisons ! * President Trump can create an Executive Order to wipe out the U.S.A. debt. Then allow Congress their Constitutional right to print non-debt based money again as they did before the year 1913. The words 'FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE' will then be replaced with the words 'UNITED STATES NOTE' back on our cash. If Congress does not do this soon we are going to be in a lot of trouble ! ! Why isn't President Trump taking action by implementing this ? This would truly help "make America great again!" I and many other American's are not afraid of the corrupt Federal Reserve bank. "We The People" are the government. The U.S. Constitution clearly explains this! The politicians are our public servants. WE SHOULD NEVER BE AFRAID TO FIGHT FOR THE TRUTH ! ! ! Watch the historical video documentary called 'THE SECRET OF OZ' by Bill Still. It explains that Gold and Silver have been made scarce by banks that resulted in depressions and many other serious problems. This fact has happened often in many countries.

The 1/10 fractional size makes the most sense when you’re able to dollar cost average and consistently make purchases regardless of the market direction. There’s nothing wrong with expanding the mint choices . Some vendors will offer random coin types and years at a discount . That adds up over time . Another factor to consider is whether shipping is free or if you have a long distance to travel to make purchases of the coins . Great topic . I’m just getting started watching some of your previous videos and appreciate the time and effort taken to produce videos on the topic . -DM

Very good video. I personally avoid 1/10th oz coins. I have been accumulating gold coins since 2016. At first I bought 1 oz coins and as the price rose I scaled down to 1/2 oz and now I’m buying 1/4 oz. If I can’t afford a 1/4 oz this month I’ll wait for next month. In this fashion my $ cost averaging strategy protects me as my heavier purchases were done at much lower prices. I buy mostly Maples and some Perth mint coins all .9999. If I buy an American Eagle I’m taxed 5% because they are an alloy of gold and copper so I avoid them but I sure would love to have a few.

ASE gold coins weigh more than one ounce. That’s because it’s 1 oz of gold plus some copper & silver.

I bought the 1/10 ounce AGEs & Maples when they were like $125/each... After spot went over $1500, the only fractional gold I bought were/are the 20 Francs (.1867oz) & 1 Ducats (.1106oz) as the premiums are only 2%-4%... When you sell those, you will only get spot but presumably that price will be 40% or more higher so I think that is the best gold strategy unless you find deals... I have been picking up 1/4 oz Platinum Eagles as the 1oz premiums are 20-30% but the 1/4oz Platinum premiums are only 10%-15%.

The problem was that it was like 80 coins, and the dealer didn’t want them all at once. Spot price was on its way down and the dealer kept dragging his feet. He actually told me he didn’t want the Roosters! That was years ago, though. Much different environment today. Hope you have better luck!

Comment 2 years late - but it still holds true. I also bought some 1/10oz capsules thinking that I was going to buy some US or Canadian 1/10oz coins - but I am still stuck on the 1/4oz size as the smallest I'm willing to buy. With the 1/4oz coins, I like the size and I like the lower premium better than the 1/10oz coins. I still haven't purchased a 1/10oz coin! Thank you for showing how small they really are!

Helpful thinking on getting some gold

For fractional gold I like the old European coins. 10-20 francs, whole and half sovereigns, ducats, and pesos. If you shop around they can still be had at lower premium and have more collectable value if you get a good deal on something from the 18th or 19th century. Coins that weigh from .11-.13 oz can be had for the same price or less than .10 oz American and Canadian modern junk gold.

The smaller fractional will always have the highest premiums with both silver and gold so the chance is high that you should get that back if you decide to sell in the future.

These old video's are fun..one can tell how you have evoled , I dont think u ever buy silver now.. me either.. The prems on silver are worse than the 1/10 gold back then. My first gold buy was 14 1/10th eagles at $188 with prems.. today that would be 288 with prems. Back then I brought 1/10 to barter with for medium price purchases say my food and water instead of carry around a lot of silver eagles. Since then i add 1 more to have 15.. I want to go back and buy more 1/10 but I cant bring myself to pay the prems.. Next time i get some found money maybe I wlll buy 5 more.

Being late to the game that I am my plan is to buy enough 1/10 oz to hold both 1/10 and then trade up 1/4 and repeat the process over and over. Maybe not the best plan but it's one I can easily understand and gets me in the door at least

One of the strong points of small fractional is that it does allow many more average or even low income people to actually acquire full sets of coins, especially if they are buying on release. If you want to check out some really innovative fractional though, look up Utah Goldbacks! I have a few mostly for novelty/support of the cause, but I think within the next few years the market for them will be large enough for most LCS's to be interested in them.

I do really like that since 2019 they are doing the silver proof versions of the yearly state quarters in .999 instead of standard 90%. There are 5 state/territory quarter designs released each year, and with the .999 silver versions, 5 add up to exactly 1.02 troy oz, so some people literally crack them out of the cases to put in tubes as fractionals! I think the mint should also do gold versions of those, with 5 adding up to 1 troy oz as well, even if they would have to be a bit smaller physically (like the 2016 gold versions of the 100 year old constitutional silver designs).

@@2is1gold They may be the regular non silver proofs. The regular proof sets have brownish felt and the silver uses black felt.

I’ve been a silver stacker sense 16 years old. My collection ranges from 1 ounce to 1 kg. Unfortunately 1 oz of gold out of my price range. I have been looking at fractional gold 10th or 1/4 oz. 1/2 gold and 1kg Silver are normally around the same Price range. Every month I buy about 15 ounces of silver every three months I buy a kilo of silver. With my budget in mind what would be your suggestions on fractional gold purchases.

Premiums on the 1/10 is imho way too high to make it a regular buy - at least in Europe. Like I always say I like to diversify a little and there's nothing wrong with buying smaller denominations once in a while and sure for gifts too if people wants cash and you don't want to give them cash. But it comes at a large premium. A quick price check locally I can buy 1/10 ounce new bullion and a vintage Danish 10 kroner in the same price range. Doing the number crunch I'll get ½ gram for free in the vintage coin compared to modern bullion and if selling to a dealer there's no way you get the premium back - it's a nobrainer. For the 1/4 oz size range the picture is a little better. A vintage Danish 20 kroner vs 1/4 oz are pretty much the same price - here you'll only get ~0,2 gram "for free". For pure bullion I normally don't go lower than 1/4 oz. For vintage coins I normally don't go lower than the French 20 franc (5,8 gram). Of course there's always a few exceptions and a great deal might turn up unexpected. New Sovereigns aren't quite a 1/4 oz on the other hand premiums are none the less very low on those from trusted online dealers. Gold in Europe is more equal no matter origin. Pretty much regardless size and origin you'll always get spot when selling to a dealer - so what count the most is the premium. Sure selling privately or special items with numismatical value you might get a little more - especially if in good condition.

Tenths were nice at $135 not long ago. Multiply by ten and $1350 an ounce shows the premiums weren't so bad. Ten times $235 brings you to $2350. Some may have super high premiums for 1/10s. According to Miles Franklin the US Mint is only producing 1 oz. gold eagles and buffalos. No fractionals. They may get harder to get. Check out prices at Apmex for gold fractionals. Will that be a trend? The mint is producing silver eagles, but not enough.

Stack Brother stack. I look for which coin or bar offers the lowest premium. I also think fractional has its market. It may be easier in a crunch to sell fractional( like an emergency).

Just got in some 1/4 oz Gold Maples, my first fractional. Boy, are they small in size!

The coins are beautiful but I can’t bring myself to buy them. In Ireland a single Oz coin will cost €38 when the spot price is €20. If you buy bulk then the price per coin will come down to €29. Thd buyback price is then pretty much spot, so to me this would be a luxury item purchase to give as a gift or as a coin collector only. As an investment it just seems insane. The spread on bars is much narrower and makes much more sense to me.

Very expensive button. I like that. 👍

If you had say for example, 10 or maybe 20 1/10th oz. gold maple leafs ( I don't know in this instance it would be leaves...lol), in original factory plastic sheets, would you leave them be or cut them all out and put them in capsules? Only curious. All opinions welcome! Thanks in advance.

Everyone here will tell you they retain their premium as well, but it depends on the buyer. If you're okay selling them peer to peer (which is a hassle) you'll get back your premium. If you sell to a LCS, you'll get back _some) of your premium. I see about $10 of a $40 premium coming back. Cheers!
