Most jewelers will buy it. But at about 90-95 percent of the spot price. So it needs to appreciate to break even.

I love when people say, "if the dollar goes to shit I'll have gold". That's a useless comment too, what are they planning on doing, buy some food, cut off a piece of their gold and exchange for it? My guess is the other side of the transaction will think you are crazy.

You are so wrong it's hilarious. Look at gold compared to inflation throughout time and you will see it is a bad investment. Gold as a hedge has been proven to be economically inefficient by several Nobel laureates. I am sure you have a Reddit page saying otherwise. But who am I to argue on the internet with someone obviously smarter than me…..

You are right. But $1000 in the s&p 500 would be over $4000 today. So you could buy about 2x more if you did not invest in gold. So you may not a Nobel prize winner but even easy math shows you could have been better.

What is the scenario where this coin will be useful? One day you are broke, have no cash, and you sell this coin at a jeweler?
Wouldn't it be better to put $2k in cash into a savings account and use that money when you need it?
Regular savings account is the most worst place to park your money. In case you want to park money, use HYSA. Gold has been traditionally used as fiat alternative due to low volatility.

Since last crisis in 2009, gold was $900 and now is $2,000
Pretty much everything doubled in price.
It is doing fine hedging against inflation

And gold can crash too. What's your point? You picked two random points in time, I used the same dates and had double the return. Markets and commodities are not safe and volatile. They will go up and down. Historically stocks have done exponentially better.

It's called risk/return, don't bother trying to explain it to him. It's the reason central banks bought 1000 tons of gold last year and zero stocks. Well except for the Japanese central bank, they buy stocks. 😆

Gold has lost value to inflation in last decade. Stop cherry picking price point data to fit your narrative.

Ahhhh these gold posts always turn into the argument for better or worse.
Can we focus on the deal please? it is the best deal you can find today buying from a reputable seller with credit card, now can you find a better deal tomorrow or next week? Yes? Sure post it then.
If you like it buy it and if you don't, fine then move on.
Why is buying gold has to be so black and white, or all or nothing?

From a political standpoint, there is more certainty than the last two years. The price of gold should drop.
Would love to hear more about this. 😆

Cherry picking is looking at the last decade. Gold went up 700% from 2000 to 2011. So it's doing just fine against inflation.

Western Central Banks aren't buying gold. Russian, Chinese central banks are the big buyers of gold. Makes you wonder why the two most corrupt gov are buying gold? Maybe because it's east to make it disappear, hmmm

You mean 1980, after gold went from $35 to $850 in 9 years?

Yeah if you were stupid enough to buy gold in 1980, after it went up 2500%, you got waxed. 😂

From 1980-2000 gold had a huge crash vs inflation.

From 2012-now gold had crash vs inflation.

So in last 44 years, gold has lost to inflation ~34 of those years. Or ~77% of the time.

Try to rationalize however you want. The false narrative is that gold protects against inflation. It's patently false as even you here admit so…..by want to make some excuses for it.
