The latest “fad” in coin selling is Certified Eagles and Buffalos. At American Federal we know that this is usually just a way for dealers to tack on a huge profit. Many dealers sell MS-69 and MS-70 coins for as much as $3500 per coin. This is an outrageous markup!
We also offer coins graded by NGC, PCGS and ICG. If you like the security of graded coins call us first. We offer MS-69 Eagles at $125 over spot and MS-70 at $200 over spot. That’s a savings of hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Call to confirm prices and availability. Prices on Proof Gold Eagles are more volatile so call for current pricing. We also offer Silver Eagles.
The US Mint created the Gold Eagle in 1986 and it quickly became stiff competition for the Krugerrand and Maple Leaf. The Eagles are the most beautiful gold bullion in many people’s opinion. Since its debut, it has been the premier bullion in this country. The Eagle comes in 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz and 1 oz sizes. Often you can buy the fractional pieces for the same premium as the 1 oz. We strongly recommend buying the smaller pieces when the premiums are equal. It gives you an advantage of recovering some of your costs if the premium increases. In the past, we’ve seen premiums go over 25% on smaller Eagles!
