    I buy gold and other assets on a dollar cost average schedule and then buy more as price and interest allow. If you want to know more about buying gold coins, that is my primary focus here. I talk a bit about mining stocks and other equities as well. Cheers!

    Listened to 10 of your videos and I’m probably going with your vibe on the buffalos. Love maples but the rational for buffalos got me to agree. It’s tough to accept that I’m leaving about 1/4 ounce on the table per decent purchase switching over from maples, but my overall plan has changed some now. I don’t know why but for some reason I envisioned a big cash out to trade into another asset class. Now after absorbing your ideas I see more of a plan with selling an ounce per month starting at 60 or so. This is why I want the best, so going into the store monthly my product will likely be coveted over other coins. Makes sense and hopefully the $55 extra per coin will be worth it.

    I remember buying my first gold piece: 1/10 oz Perth Mint Kangaroo. Was pretty excited! Then it showed up...My gawd it was small! Needed a magnifying glass to see what year it was. I knew then I was just a gold wannabe poser....Yeah, I could say "I own gold!" but jeezum, it was small. Moved to 1/4 ounce gold coins and felt "somewhat" better but still not totally satisfied. Next was 1/2 oz coins. Now I was getting somewhere. Life was good. More friends. Better dates with cuter women. I love gold now. Gonna get me some of those bison next.

    Great vid! A question: is there any difference in liquidity among those gold coins you talked about near the end such as American eagles vs. Buffalo vs. maple leaf vs. brittania? Are any easier or harder to sell? Or hold their premium better when sold? Thanks.

    • @2is1gold
      @2is1gold  2 года назад

      Eagles and then Buffalos are the easiest to sell in the US. They will get more premium in a sale but rarely cover the buy to sell spread better than a Maple Leaf or Britannia.

As with most things a balance is good. If you're paying attention to the world around you and following prices as well as listening to your gut you'll probably do well.

    When I started buying Gold I was a bit too interested in accumulating a few ounces fast and that lead me to overpay for the first few coins that I bought. Now I am a bit wiser, I'm checking the trend for spot and only buy one 1oz coin when spot is on a downtrend. The difficulty is to decide exactly the right moment for the purchase before Spot starts to go up again... :D
    Overall, though, I tend never to buy when the price of a certain coin is higher than the average of what I paid for all my previous purchases.

Actual eample SD shows today a Buffalo 1oz BU at just above $2000, then same coin, BU for just under $2000. Only difference I can see is the year of the coin. Roughly $50 delta. First, not sure why a delta just because a year difference...? Does it matter? Random years seem to be cheaper.

      They ran out of the 2021 coins they had the deal on. The only reason they're priced differently is that their system has them entered differently. Bullion Exchanges has the 2021 right now for $95 over. I use them quite a bit. bullionexchanges.com/2021-1-oz-gold-american-buffalo-coin

      When you see a 1/10th oz eagle for $260, that's paying $2600 per ounce of gold (vs. $1950-ish/oz in a 1 oz coin). It makes a deeep hole to climb out of to get that value back; more than 1/3 the dollars you spend don't go into metal. Paying $560 for a 1/4 oz AGE is $2240/oz, not great but closer to 1950 than 2600. Quick look I saw 1/4 oz maples and britannias about $520 ($2080/oz) which is a coin + groceries this month instead of just a coin. JMBullion even had a queen's beast 1/4 for under $500 which is almost keeping proportional to buying a full ounce at a time. It would be an oddball in a stack but probably best deal out there today.

      Yeah but there's lot of options cheaper than Eagles. If holding long it will make up for it eventually (but I agree if you are planning to flip, fractionals are not ideal). Psychology is important here - for some the ability to make regular purchases and build up the stack is worth paying a bit more in the short run. Not everyone has the discipline to save for months to make that bigger purchase... and that's ok! Everyone needs to figure out the method that works best for their own goals.

    Very good and informative video!
    Personally for me the biggest obstacle to buy physical gold are NJ taxes. When state adds 6.5% taxes to the total price I don’t want to do any investments even if I can find good deals. Let say gold coin price is 1825 + 100 from dealer. Adding state taxes 125$ which is 6.5% total coin price becomes 2050$.
    When do we expect gold spot price 2050? In 10, 20 or 50 years? Besides mines can dig more and mor gold... 95% of total world gold was excavated during last 120 years so mines can produce more and more gold.

      Two methods: Sell the silver for cash, use the cash to buy gold. This can be at different times when silver is relatively high and gold relatively low. Or use your networking to find a person willing to do a straight trade of junk silver for gold at some ratio. Most of the year spot was around 65:1, lately closer to 72:1 showing gold gaining value on silver. There is also a ratio taking premiums into account where silver gets closer to gold because of its higher premiums.

I'm now looking to move up to 1/4 oz from the US and 4 other well known mints. I understand how to figure the premium on 1 ozers. But you said, like from JM Bullion, it's ~8% for a 1/4 oz. I'm not figuring this. I went there, for the same coin, and I'm coming up with 16-17%. I like Liberty Coins (bought many ASEs from them) on eBay. At $532. for a Maple, minus $456. (1/4 of $1827. spot) = $76. ; divided by $456. = 16.6% premium. What am I doing wrong? I like your presentations a lot, and I sure would appreciate your input here.

    Gut says $1750.00 for spot is based on what? Last time we checked, the dollar to gold ratio was $20,000/oz. so the question is, why are you choosing to stack at all if you're trading fiat rag for bullion coin?

Gold any less than $3000/oz. is a buy when one views reality and ignores the noise and there is plenty of noise in the air.

      @@2is1gold If the ratio doesn't matter then we can also apply the same logic to tulip bulbs and for the sake of being fair, the South Sea company and let's drop the Mississippi Company into the sausage mill while we're at it. Might as well toss BTC in there also... at least with tulip bulbs, people actually could hold a bulb in hand and look at something pretty as it bloomed, as is the case with ducats - a nod to Shylock the merchant of Venice, you favor for the same reason. (Couldn't resist as Shakespeare was awesome).
      We disagree, as you can likely tell and here's why. The devaluation of fiat by way of flooding the country with ever growing amounts of rag or a handful of 3's followed with multitudes of 0's on balance sheets created from thin air is what has occurred when the dollar was decoupled from gold. Gold on the other hand still has the buying power it did prior to the decoupling in ratio to fiat, sans the funny business Oz is doing with gold set price today.
      As long as the masquerade continues to be perpetrated upon the masses, no one is the wiser. Those whom don't ignore the fundamentals understand the great and powerful Oz is just a guy working some levers behind a curtain when Toto pulled back the veil.
      In short, the family car in the 1970's such as a Chevy Impala sedan could be exchanged for the same ratio of gold as a basic family car does today. The amount of fiat on the other hand has inflated over the same period while gold spot is being artificially suppressed as you noted - you cannot control spot price. Meanwhile Uncle Sugar is still guarding the bullion hoard at Ft. Knox with lots of guns. Something we'll never see is that many guns guarding a flash drive with BTC on it. Food for thought.
