I buy fractional because it’s what I can get on a month to month basis. I get at least a 1/10 ounce piece of gold each month.

[@CampbellsCoins]

If that's what you can get, do what makes you happy. 1/10th oz is a respectable size.

[@PYGODcom]

The premium on 1 gr of gold is mostly lower than the premium on any silver.

[@tridentstacking]

Golden rule for gold: do not go into debt to acquire it. If you do that, then everything else falls in line, heavy premiums or not

[@libertylover4575]

QUESTION - if you buy on Instagram or other online sources, how do you make sure it’s not fake???

[@CampbellsCoins]

Buy from a reputable source and test it when you receive it. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

[@richardvalliere1421]

Nothing wrong with being a "variety guy" ! Be a smart budget buyer, world 9999 coins and bars. Fractional gold = liquidity. Premiums? Well, you don't buy it to sell it the next day. Inflation and the collapse of the dollar = premium goes poof. Called Profit. Good Video!

[@stevejxnms]

I wish I would’ve seen this video back in 2020.

[@k.stacks2445]

Niche items is where the money is at. I sold an ms70 Cook Islands Trapped coin for $380. I paid $115 for it in 2019.

[@nazirhusain6339]

K. Stacks did you send it in for grading?

[@CampbellsCoins]

So true

[@nazirhusain6339]

Campbell's Coins what are some good options?

[@squigglove]

1. How do you know who to trust on Instagram?? 2. Where do I find those tiny capsules like your Kookaburra one? 3. I hate packaging/assays; I assume scuffing decreases value? 4. Thanks again for the education! I'm in love with tiny stuff (miniature collector in general) so the 1/10 coins. But I love bars of all sizes.

[@wildone8397]

From an Aussie, It's pronounced "cook"aburra 😉.. Your video definitely made some great points 🙂

[@CampbellsCoins]

Thank you! 😃

[@wildone8397]

@@CampbellsCoins No problem 😉

[@robertoh.20]

The problem with saving up to buy a whole ounce of gold is, gold prices can go up , they don't stay stale, if they never moved, then yes, you can "save up to get an ounce" quite easily. Did you think about that?

[@CampbellsCoins]

Absolutely. Felt it was too obvious to state.

[@jaysondiocales954]

Monthly, am getting 2.5 grams. That fits my budget. Then i got 5 gram the past 2 months. And for the next coming months (4 consecutive) a 10 gram by start to save up beginning this month. ... Leveling up.

[@CampbellsCoins]

Jayson Diocales good for you man! Bit by bit 👏

[@Stacker-vr7je]

Nice video bud. Personally I like sovereigns for fractional, or coins from the LMU. They have low premiums for fractional and are very liquid in Europe.

[@CampbellsCoins]

Thanks much! That's awesome. Another viewer said she buys sovereigns because they aren't affected by the VAT tax. It's crazy the restrictions happening on precious metals in Europe.

[@firelordsozin3677]

Where do you buy fractional gold at good prices on Instagram? Link?

[@SovereignSaurus]

Thanks for sharing. Some good points there. I'm just waiting for arrival of some fractional pieces to see what I like the look of the most. I've had Sovereigns and 1oz before, my only gripe with Sovs is the copper content rather than being four nines

[@nedstarkravingmad1799]

So what? Why is the purity that important?

[@SovereignSaurus]

@@nedstarkravingmad1799 2 years ago wow. The purity is important for buyers in many countries like Australia and Canada as GST (sales tax) is due when you buy non pure gold eg 22ct. Many other reasons.... It's down to personal preference on the look of the coins to a collector

[@paganphil100]

I'm in the UK so the best fractional coins for me are sovereigns which are slightly less than a 1/4 troy ounce (Sovereigns are 0.23 troy ounces). I haven't got any 1/10 coins yet but I probably will do when / if the spot-price drops again. I don't usually buy bars but I do have 3 x 10g Lady Fortuna bars from PAMP.

[@CampbellsCoins]

Philip Fletcher totally understand. You have to stack what is best for you and your situation. Thanks for watching 🙏🙏🙏

[@kirbyvacuummadman1814]

I stay away from fractional gold due to the higher premiums. I stick to 1oz gold eagles or 1oz gold Buffalows when I can. To me paying the higher premiums for the fractional gold just for the sake of having gold in your stack is not good money management or good stacking, but that's just me. Always try and get the "best bang for your buck" This is a savings plan not a selling plan. having said that if I can get fractional gold for the right price, I would consider it.

[@CampbellsCoins]

Those are great points in favor of larger sizes. Thanks for watching!

[@husky500cr]

I wish they made a factional gold Buffalo coin.

[@CampbellsCoins]

They do! But they are incredible hard to find.

[@christurgeon6277]

Campbell I know this is an older video but I came across it, gave you like but I had a question what year is that family of eagles canadian coin you kept showing? Just curious

[@CampbellsCoins]

1998. Thanks for stopping by!

[@SilverStarz]

Great show, thank you.

[@voltsoftruthBSbuster]

The reason I'm not a big fan of buying full ounce coins or bars is because first off like you said, if you have an unforseen emergency where you require money, and you only have say one ounce American Eagle, you are now forced to sell your only coin to get bunch of cash that you perhaps don't even need. Thats why my favorite denomination is quarter ounce. At I don't mind owning a few half ounce coins as well. But this way, same scenario, but you can sell one or two of your quarter ounce coins and still have three or two quarter ounce coins left. The second reason I prefer buying quarter ounce coins is because I believe its a more realistic and financially achievable way (at least for me at this time in my life), of consistently acquiring gold on a set time table. Not too many people have $2000 buck left over to go and spend that on a one ounce coin each month. Thus for most people it takes time to save up. However, we all know the longer it takes a person to accumulate the money, the greater the chance that the money will end up being spend on other things. So instead of trying to save up $2000 for 3-5 months or however long it takes a person to save, its much easier to save $500 each month and purchase a quarter ounce gold coin. This is also psychologically beneficial since you feel like you are making constant progress, and not lagging behind. But that could just be me. Anyway Thanks for the video.

[@artmccomeskey738]

the dos peso gold coins are in fact 1.49 grams of AU......or aprox. 1/20 troy oz.

The Swiss 20 franc Helvetia coin is 0.1867 troy oz of gold.

[@joehch]

Love that $10 Indian Head in the capsule. Saw one this past Tuesday at my LCS which was graded PCGS MS 62 for $1277 I was so tempted to get it, although I had to pass on it. Ended up getting 4X 1/4 oz type 2 AGE’s which was my goal for that day

[@JR-gw3by]

Ounce I get into gold I'm going for no less than 10th an oz but prolly no larger than quarter oz

[@Goldsavergamer]

Jonathan Reese so you only getting 1/10th or 1/4th haha - I don’t think there are any in between. Unless you get bars with gram amounts that are between the two .

[@JR-gw3by]

@@Goldsavergamer well no shit there isn't any bigger I'm just saying what I'll be purchasing when I get I to gold no piss off

Smart. Find ones with the smallest premiums and you'll do fine.

I had no idea you could buy anything on Instagram. I use mainly Facebook groups for precious metals. Great video those fractionals are beautiful mate

[@tartanmctwisted4223]

I can only afford to buy fractional gold and the premiums dont matter as I intend to leave it all to my son in the future, so the costs are mine and its 100%profit for him an that's what matters to me...

can you please make another video about 1/10 ounce gold eagle? how the color compare to maple leaf and krug? and how rrcognized it is? and how easy to sell to store compare to 1 oz eagle? and how 90% gold compare to 4 nines? and just make the longest video about 1/10 ounce and also the price dropped to 220$ from 270% and so many other good things

Great video, Campbell's Coins! Yes, I'm also a fan of fractional gold pieces. Some of the pieces that I have are unicorns and have paid a hefty premium for the JM, Engelhard and Credit Suisse pieces in my collection. P.S. I spy with my eye.....lol. 😻💜🙏🍀🙌😉

Thanks JM! Some of these tiny pieces are worth a pretty penny. Yes! You spy correctly :)

Have some 1/10th AGE and $10 liberty eagles.

[@jrtjonathanwinchell3955]

So far the 2 pesos gold is far cheaper than the 1/10 fractional gold I've seen in this video.

[@CampbellsCoins]

Old video but premiums are fairly close for those two. The 2 peso is more than half the weight of a 1/10th
