More Money & Coin Collecting Info







Before you buy gold or silver, always know the spot price of gold. You should expect to pay no less than the spot price of gold for popular gold bullion coins and bars. If the item is selling for a lot less than the spot price of gold, that is a big red flag. Why? Ebay is a relatively efficient market these days, especially as gold becomes more and more popular. If an authentic coin is selling at a steep discount to spot, you can buy it and sell it back to someone else for spot price and get an immediate profit (this is called arbitrage). In an efficient market, arbitrage should not happen. If you see a steep discount and it looks to good to be true, it probably is. Proceed with caution in that case.
