    Hi all, sorry that im a noob though but Im new to buying gold coins and dont really know how big they are. I am looking to buy a 1/4 ouncer but i dont know if the 1/10 is just a bit smaller and would it be worth buying the 1/4. I looked at the diameter on some sites and apparently its about the size of a 5c coin. if anyone has this coin could they post a photo comparing it to the 5c and 10c.

    Thanks!

    Better off saving your money and buying a half ounce. Lower premium.

    1/10 are too small and have too much premium.
    1/4 oz is okay in size but premium still high.
    1/2 is nice and big, premium is reasonable.

    1 oz is great but you have to shell out lots of bills for it.

    Sorry i cant help with a comparison pic.

    I have a 1/4 oz 2013 Panda and the size isn't too small at all, in fact, I really like it :)

    As previously mentioned, you will be paying a higher premium for the smaller coin though
    Good luck with your decision!
