Okay then, try going to your local gold dealer and getting any type of bullion - Eagles, Maple Leafs, Krugerands, bars, whatever - and see what he tells you.
Conversely, if you happen to hold any bullion, ask that same dealer how much above spot he'll give you. Regardless of when you bought it, you will likely be VERY pleasantly surprised.
Getting bullion (as opposed to paper gold) has been extremely difficult for well over a year's time. This is not an issue particular to any goings-on at the U.S. mint.
I buy on the internet and I am having no problem finding supply.
My local source is happy to sell me all the Krugerands I want - if I only want 1 oz. coins.
Nobody has any factionals here in town.
