Gold Eagles at Spot

[CC-Hunter]

This morning my local paper had an ad by U.S. Gold Firm (1-888-734-6813) for U.S. $5 gold eagles at $123 each, with free shipping. I thought they might change the price when I called, but they honored the $123 price. Before I could get off the phone I had to hear a pitch for certified ASEs, but when I said "no" they didn't press. I have no connection with these folks, just thought some folks here might want to pick up some US gold coins with no (or a tiny) premium. Gold could drop by the time the coins come, but that's a chance we all take when buying PMs.

And if you buy a tube or so and search them all for mint errors, you are actually Coin Roll Hunting.
So, this post is on topic!

Retail price on their www site is $139.

They asked for a code in the ad. I don't have the code with me now, but I think it was something like WPDC26. I can confirm later.

Interesting. Provident is currently purchasing these for $130.10.

Confirmed - code is the "vault #", it is WPDC26

Saw a TV ad yesterday for the same coins at $119 each - maybe dealers locked in purchases of 2016 coins earlier at lower prices?
