I have a Canadian maple leaf does anyone know where I can sell it?? Thanks, Luigi

[Rapscallion]

Why would you sell it as long as the price of gold is increasing so fast?

[grand wazoo]

Any coin dealer or even e-bay.

[billorites]

Liberty Coin Service, Lansing, MI.

Honest, market prices, want repeat customers.

Call them and they'll be able to handle everything by mail.

I’ll give you 50 bucks for it.

Look for “coin dealers” in your local area. Or jewelers or pawnshops if you don’t have an actual coin dealer.

If you deal with a pawnshop, don’t let them rip you off by giving you the “junk gold” price. A Maple Leaf is one troy ounce of pure fine gold. They should pay you the current spot price, minus a small percentage for their commission.

I bought when gold was around $700. I think what goes up must come down

You mail it to me!

In a week or less, I guarantee you will have a postal money order for $500.00

There are plenty of places to sell it. Any local coin shop should offer you about 98% of current Ask price on it. I use http://www.kitco.com/market as the URL to show me current Gold and Silver prices.

Read Consumer Reports. They say that the prices are going to hit $1500 an ounce.

You might want to keep it a bit longer.

Why trade the real deal for nearly worthless paper?

Any coin shop should deal in the precious metal market. Jewelry stores may or may not buy gold, you will always get the spot price on ebay as well.

Keep it. Gold will easily reach $1500 before (and if) the democrats are ousted from power.

Time out. Cale em up and ask em first what they are charging for a maple leaf. Lots of dealers are charging spot plus a hefty markup due to the scarcity of bullion coins. They should pay spot plus a solid percentage of their markup as well.

[Kozak]

Yikes.

“cale” = call

[Hugin]

I’ve always just used a local coin shop. They buy at market price and sell at 5% over.

[Stentor]

Read Consumer Reports. They say that the prices are going to hit $1500 an ounce.

That's a certainty then.

[Luigi Vasellini]

Thats fair. Its cool out so the chocolate sandwiched in the middle wont melt during shipping

[Luigi Vasellini]

Actually I was gonna sell it and buy silver

[djf]

Chocolate!!

Then that’s a darn good deal, after all, can’t eat tungsten!!

BTW, thats for 1 oz coins. Markups are higher buying smaller coins, and of course for older/rare coins. But you should get the spot price selling maple leafs.
