A Chunk of Gold at a Good Price

Gold is on the move again today, soon offerings like these will dry up. There's a nice little piece of French history, at a fair price, up for bids (not my listing) in the auction section... and you have less than an hour to submit the winning bid Image

well, those french coins go for about $10-20 over melt typically, while the little U.S. gold coins go for about $20-$40 over melt. so if you buy the french fractionals, you get more gold.

French and Swiss 20 Francs and British Sovereigns are all very liquid.

Too bad, so sad... All mine!!!

I was trying to stimulate someone else to buy it, and ended up getting it for myself. Nice little piece of history, as Ray said. No sad eyes here.
