Gainesville has the 1oz bullion dragons available for $300 over spot. $400 over spot was extremely easy to turn down. I was tempted at $300 over spot, but decided to save the fiat for a 2012 gold kangaroo coin and a few ounces of silver. edit to add link http://www.gainesvillecoins.com/pro...-gold-perth-mint-year-of-the-dragon-coin.aspx
Yes. It is likely that Gainesville and Apmex sent their coins out for grading and that these coins didn't qualify for the MS69-70 ratings. Premiums on the silver coins will be similarly high, but under $100.
