03-21-2013:This market is in a somewhat neutral position at the moment, but rare date Liberty gold remains one of the best values in the rare coin market. The market demand is really focused on rarity and this is one of the current highest potential areas of the coin market. There is good demand for the high grade Philadelphia and San Francisco issues. The Carson City, Charlotte, and Dahlonega issues are in demand as usual. The focus is on rarity and condition. There are many sleepers and underrated issues in this area and those coins….when they do appear…are bringing pretty good prices. This market is front and center in the rare coin market’s focus on two important issues, namely rarity and gold itself. In the world of finance, gold is now starting to be on many people’s minds. Rare U.S. gold coins are a great story. There are a limited number of people who can collect rare gold by the date…these coins are relatively expensive…but these coins are so rare that even relatively small demand soaks up supply easily. These coins are perhaps the rarest of all coins as a group. I like the rare dates… if they are truly rare. So take a look at high grade Carson City, Charlotte, and Dahlonega gold coins. Take a very long look at high grade, low mintage, low pop Philadelphia and San Francisco gold. My recommendation is a STRONG BUY.
