I absolutely love the St. Gaudens double eagles. That and the $10 Indian designed by the same sculptor are two of the most beautiful gold pieces ever made. I feel exactly the same as you do about the old coronet style gold coins. Thanks for sharing those beautiful ladies with us!
I picked up a roll of random half dollars from SD Bullion. I really wanted Benjamins, but they were asking more for that. So, I ordered a random roll. What did I receive? A roll of Benjamins! Win/win.
Hi Spectacular, I always loved the design. The most beautiful American coin. Nothing since compares, especially what the mint is putting out recently. Thanks, Bill
Great gold coins, Speg. The St.Gaudens double eagle is my most favourite coin design and my preferred year is 1927. So Apmex sent you 3 identical coins. If atleast they were 1924 from P, D and S, that'd have been super.
Treasure! I would love to find those in a box. I can’t afford those, but I can get a 1/10 oz coin sometimes. I have been stacking silver eagles though. Those gold coins are beautiful. Thanks for the video.
Those are some great double eagles! I have two "dream" gold coins, the St. Gaudens and the Mexican 50 pesos. I'm trying out a new saving plan this year. If it works to plan, I'll have enough for a quarter ounce or equivalent (half eagle, sovereign, 10 pesos, etc.) at year's end, with something left over for a few ounces of silver. From there, the next plan is to expand it to get the St. Gaudens double eagle, and then work on the 50 pesos. I might even forgo the silver, and roll the remainder into the St. Gaudens fund to give it a head start. All depends on what the market looks like in January
MS 64 is a great grade for collectors on a budget. Coins will be 90%+ perfect, but still affordable. I've been chipping away at a set of Walkers in 64 for yrs and they are just about my favorite pieces. That old holder NGC 62 was a nice piece for the grade. Just send it in for reholdering.
I love double eagles the Saint gardens as well as the liberty head. My first Saint gardens was a 1913 S and I sent it into NGC and it came back MS 62. I thought I was going to get at least a 64.The coin is so beautiful.
You can get fine scratches off the case easily by using meguiars “plastx” polish. You can get it at Walmart fairly cheap. You put a small dab on a microfiber cloth and rub it on scratched area in a circle motion, may have to do a couple or few times till they are gone. Then dry the case off well to get polish residue off
Glue residue can be easily removed with a small dab of acetone on a rag then rubbed on a few times till gone. Acetone goes at glue better then rubbing alcohol, shouldn’t hurt the case but it can remove paint from any stickers if they are on the surface
I'd be more than happy with that if I could even afford to buy one, lol. 1924 is the year my late paternal grandfather and my late scoutmaster were both born.
@@mammadoz5028 I use 91% propanol for removing goo without damaging most plastics. Be real careful to start. Use a Q-tip swab and just a drop of alcohol.
Wow they are beautiful speg thanks for the video’s definitely saving for one I sold one when I was a kid for $80 bucks when I was in a pinch as a young parent it was and Always will be the last coin I sold I stack now for only one reason to pass down to my sons and grandson.
@@videoluvr4204 it was 1926 and it was 1999 or 2000 not sure of spot price at time but I was just a dumb kid man had sucker on my head the man at coin store got but A valuable lesson learned may be it was worth it!
I got to get me one. Right now I favorite gold coin is the Canadian gold maple leaf. It’s so beautiful. I was going to order the Philharmonic from Apmex but i think you changed my mind. The Double eagles are awesome.
I’m debating between the 1924 MS64 saint gaudens my coin store has currently or a 1908 MS64 saint gaudens “no motto” online. What would you advise? Thank you
The newer NGC holders show the edge well, can check the entire rim of the coin apart from the four tabs holding it in place, but the white background pieces are clear about 1-2mm off the coin
That 1 gaudens is a bit darker I can see the difference. I would attribute it possibly to the coins being 90% gold you get variation with the 10% copper.
I really want one of these myself. I recently purchased my first gold coin after 300+ oz. of silver. I went for the $10 Liberty 1/2 oz. coin. I've also purchased a 1/4 oz gold Libertad. Hopefully this one you've showcased will be possible soon.
im a bar guy so i passed on a maple to get a 1oz bar from the rcm....now i think im gonna save for a round. i really love the lady fortuna pamp bars and just seen the una and the lion so that would take priority for me. i may just pay the premium for a buffalo or eagle over a maple or something since i'd only be getting one for a while...MAYBE
I bought a Whitman album for gold. I hope to fill it in my lifetime. Disappointing that the (overpriced) Dansco US-Type gold page doesn't have slots for motto and no-motto St. Gaudens.
Love St Gaudens Double Eagles! Can you see the Edge lettering on them?? (NVM U just answered my question) 1924 is special year for me it was the year my Grandfather was born!
S.D. bullion JM Buillon ALL collect NY sales tax..( even if you buy from eBay ) ...no way around it. Unless you're meeting someone in a parking lot. Then that's just like a drug deal...
My Mother was born 1924. Absolute gorgeous coins. A lot of history sitting there. I am saving slowly for the 1933 Double Eagle in June auction. Don't think I will make it though. :):)
It’s comin! Can you believe I get laughed at or scolded every time I recommend it here? Ever since 7 cents I’ve been talking about it. I purchased it at 4.5 cents
Do you prefer the 'In God We Trust' over the sun or without on the reverse? I just purchased my first pre-1933 gold coin myself, it's an NGC graded 1911 incused Gold Indian $2.5 piece, I started out small. I have some gold eagle bullion coins too. Hopefully I can buy more gold in the future, I mostly collect silver coins and bullion. Gold is much more expensive! If I were you I would buy a gold type set instead of all the same coins, just a thought.
Took me 2 years to save up for my own, buying and trading eventually got me to my dream 1924 Ms 65 $20 gold shield. Segtacular is correct, with some time and saving it is possible
Been buying on apmex since 2013 seems as though they only offer the nice presentation box to new customers because when my friends make first time orders they get an apmex box. I can order at the same time as them and when my order arrives no apmex box. Apmex where's the love at? lol

I am also leaning toward 1927 as that was my parent's birth year.

I love the random date situation but honestly I’d be bummed that they sent 3 of the same year. Beautiful coins Speg...congrats.
It just means I’ll have to get three more lol

For random I would say you done pretty good. You can't expect perfection.
Beautiful coins Speg! Thanks for sharing.
Man those are some beauties, and they will be 100 years old soon! may add a bit of numismatic value. Thanks for sharing as always speg.

0.1oz gold challenge reporting in. Got a nice gold sovereign this week. Beautiful coin and 0.2345oz. Say no to paper gold.
Congratulations!!
St Gaudens are the best! I have one, but would love to acquire many more...
Could not hear a word you were saying, mesmerised by the gold 😊

My favorite eagle design of any coin.
I love finding gold in a box 😉
Just got this too! Love this coin. The in flight eagle is classic..

The pre 33's tone a beautiful golden orange, mostly from the 10% copper
I picked up a 1924 MS64 from my LCS a few months back. I saw it and had to have it.
That would be a good name for sunglasses Bro Ray bands , Nice Coins Love the wrighting on the edges
So much gold! Great job 👍
WD-40 takes that adhesive off. Put a little on a cloth and rub it off. Those are my favorite coins.
So does Goo Gone.
Hand sanitizer works too.

wasnt gold like $300 per ounce? why you only receive $80...what year was it?

Gold maples are the best. The buffaloes don't have anything on the production quality of the maples
1924, 27, 28 and 08 NM are usually what you see with saints, but still nice in 64 PCGS!
The color variations are normal, they all look natural from what I see. 👍
WOW SPEG THAT IS MY FAVORITE COIN EVER ,
MY DREAM COIN !!!
Nice. I think I would take two of them to my LCSs and see if they might trade for some different dates.
Congratulations

Wow awrsome speg very nice i would love one of them gold slabs there very nice..
I've had problems with toning on American eagles myself . Its like the copper bleeds out of some coins
Do you prefer pre 33 gold versus modern gold bullion?
They look nice in 64. I got one in 64 recently.
OMG, that’s gotta be like twenty grand worth of gold. Awesome!
Shhhhhhhhhhh 🤫
I personally like to hold the coin in my hand. I keep mine in a flipper. That way I have easy access to them.
BTW just an odd point. A group of Eagles is called a “convocation.”
Wow very nice gold coins am glad u got some gold..
I wonder how CoinGuy feels about this!!!! Nice haul
I bought a Whitman album for gold. I hope to fill it in my lifetime. Disappointing that the (overpriced) Dansco US-Type gold page doesn't have slots for motto and no-motto St. Gaudens.

Wow can you believe that?! 1924 holy smokes
I don’t have any 1oz gold coins yet but I’ll get there. Nice pick ups Speg
Well done Patriot.
Reeded edges are quite handy as the sharpness of the vanes is a good indication of wear. And they’r better than plain flat edges.
I have a skeletonized Silver Shield st Gaudens with the very limited mintage on its way. I just love anything with the St Gaudens design
Did you forget to mention the purchase price this time around ? Could you please let us know what you paid for these beauties ?
I think they were like $2000 something each. Close to $2000 though.
Beautiful Speg I love them just don’t have the funds to get one
WD 40 will remove that residue. Apply it with a paper towel, and remove fully so it doesn't harm the plastic.
Hey Speg. Hope to see you and coinguy alongside WSS in the next short while. Put in a good word for you ;)
I hope so too!
Maybe they were just taking the coins out an original roll of of 1924's and they were shipped from mint all the same date?
I’m jealous. Nice!
APMEX don't send me those box's no more...
And, I'm buying Gold !!!
I'll have to call to make my order I see now. Those box's come in handy... 💰 👑 🔨
I’ve never ordered from Apmex because they charge sales tax in NY.
S.D. bullion JM Buillon ALL collect NY sales tax..( even if you buy from eBay ) ...no way around it. Unless you're meeting someone in a parking lot. Then that's just like a drug deal...
If you buy a whole ounce there is no sales tax. But everything else I had to pay it on.
the reason you haven't been getting different boxes, is most of the year and some of last year we were dealing with a paper shortage
Per PCGS there are more 1924's than all the other dates combined.
bought hundreds of item, over a decade or more , some pretty pricey. never got a blue box. first one i've seen.
I Have a 1908 St. Gaudin no motto. I bought mines @ $1300 (2yrs ago)
So nice!
My Mother was born 1924. Absolute gorgeous coins. A lot of history sitting there. I am saving slowly for the 1933 Double Eagle in June auction. Don't think I will make it though. :):)
Awesome coins!!
When you order at apmex you can tell them to send 3 different dates
Did. Didn’t work.
As soon as Doggie hits a Buck I'm buying some Double Eagles. How about a video on buying Gold and Silver online with Crypto.
It’s comin! Can you believe I get laughed at or scolded every time I recommend it here? Ever since 7 cents I’ve been talking about it. I purchased it at 4.5 cents
@@Spegtacular I bought a small amount at 5 cents as a joke. When it hit 13 cents I took notice and bought a bag full.
@@Spegtacular SD Bullion, JM Bullion, Provident Metals
Nice video and content. Super nice coins. Ms64s OK around 10k ?
Price? More like $2k for these ones

Yes! Beautiful
A beautiful group of ladies. Thanks 😎👍
This is another reason why my LCS is better. i get to pick out what i really want. Great coins, though.
Love those gold. Nice!! May I ask how much you paid for graded coins?
Around $2000 at the time.
@@Spegtacular TY! Appreciate the response. After I saw your vid, I searched for it and 64 is now around 2250.
I once acquired a random date MS 64 St Gaudens from APMEX and it too was a 1924🤔🤔🤔
Getting one I have a 1/10 oz but I'm saving for some big ones.
Took me 2 years to save up for my own, buying and trading eventually got me to my dream 1924 Ms 65 $20 gold shield. Segtacular is correct, with some time and saving it is possible
Some motivation along with my morning cup of joe ,thank you for the display of beautiful GOLD DOUBLE EAGLES !!!!
I never got a box like that. I get the regular brown box.
Thank you Speg ,got me a04 20 dollar lib at m y LCC last night .
Awesome!
i haven't gotten one yet but I'm working on it.
I have a half ounce 1987 gold eagle in numeral numbers. Is that rare 🤔
They're lovely!
Your 1908 is nomo that one is worth a little more.

This is my dream coin.
I thought the color was just my eye
Do a full gold stack

I will get one in a year or two.
