Stacking Gold $20 Double Eagles - St. Gaudens - Part 1

[@SalivateMetal]

Love the St Gaudens Gold. Those are beautiful coins BigStack. Great buys!!

[@BigstackMcgee]

Hi Sal, there was a time where I thought I would never be able to afford a St. Gaudens Double Eagle, and that was when it was almost 1k cheaper. I feel very blessed!

[@SilverStruck]

Still haven't picked up pre 33 gold. I do enjoy seeing pre 33 gold and learning more about it here on your channel 👍👍

[@BigstackMcgee]

You bet, Silver Struck - it was many years before I even felt comfortable at all. Knowledge and research led to comfortability for me. All the best, BSM

[@silverhairstacker8664]

Great Stuff! Were I a collector I would surely own more pre-33 gold! But you know me - I like beautiful coins, but not gonna pay the premiums. I do have a $10 gold indian that should get graded. Thanks for showing!

[@BigstackMcgee]

Oh, I certainly know that about you ;) It was many years for me before I felt comfortable with the market for graded anything. Either way, the good news is that if you stack any sort of precious metal your ahead of like 98% of everyone else, right? Have a good one ss!

[@skullstaxx]

I agree. Thee most beautiful coin there is. My favs are the "No Motto"🔥

[@BigstackMcgee]

I hear you, SkullStaxx - thanks for stopping by!

[@rogertayloRRR]

Was that smudge or scratch on the holder of that middle pcgs ?

[@TalkingBullion]

Great video BSM. Nice coins. Glad I bought pre-1933 gold before the price increases of today.

[@BigstackMcgee]

Holy cow, you're not kidding TB - who knows where premiums are heading too

[@halfdollar1]

Wasn’t it great buying these coins back then and how much have appreciated in value? I averaged $1350 for the ones I have. I love them. Especially my 1908 D motto. That was pricey then at $1450 back in 2015.

[@BigstackMcgee]

We paid chump change by comparison. It's easy when hindsight is 20/20, but it was always a gut punch to shell out for these, but we definitely made good choices!

[@QuadTap]

sorry if you answered this in the video.. i'm just scanning trying to find the answer to this question... What is a reasonable premium to pay for pre-33 (let's say unslabbed AU) vs like a gold eagle or buffalo bullion coin? I'm finding that it's about an extra $100 for pre-33 coin which is slightly less weight than a troy oz... is this historically low or high? .. can you expect to recoup this money when selling to a LCS? thanks in advance... might be worth doing a video on this topic.

[@TennesseeStacker]

Great coins Big Stack! I think I may need one now !

[@BigstackMcgee]

Haha, the St. Gaudens Double Eagles do have that effect ;) Thanks TS!

[@johnhartley5217]

Nice gold, nice video. I just had 16 pine trees taken out of my backyard due to pine beetle infestation. The coins you just showed would have almost paid for the removal. No coins or guns for me for a while.

[@BigstackMcgee]

Oh no! That much tree removal feels like it is right up there with having to fix your roof or replace your furnace imo - ouch, sorry to hear!

[@peterpun482]

Love the collection.

[@BigstackMcgee]

thanks peterpun482

[@mohammetmody9912]

[@Steve-AU-AG]

Gorgeous 20 dollar gold pieces!

[@BigstackMcgee]

Thanks Steve - I totally agree - heirlooms in my opinion

[@EYELOVEALL]

Happy 10 yr Anniversary dog.

[@Juan_Doooh]

Beautiful coins.

[@stackattack]

You always have beautiful stuff

[@BigstackMcgee]

thanks stackattack!

[@IMjustAGirlInTheWorld1983]

I have one of these it says 1908. Whats it worth???? Id sell it to buy my kids what they need.

[@priscillaantonio3278]

How much today?

[@suec3215]

Watching this September 2024 😂 They are so much higher now!

[@theblindsilverstacker4795]

Yes sir I also stack the double eagles I have several in MS 63 and 64

[@BigstackMcgee]

So great to hear, TBSS - you have seen those increase quite a bit in value then - well done!

[@johnschroeder1545]

Au to 61 what a blessing :)

[@bullionaddict9164]

Saint Gaudens is my favorite design by far.

[@BigstackMcgee]

Such an iconic American coin for sure - thanks BA!

[@SovereignSaurus]

It's a nice chunk of gold that's for sure. Getting coins graded seems to be a good move just not something I've got involved with at least at this stage.

[@BigstackMcgee]

I totally get that - I went many years before I even glanced twice at graded coins. It took quite a bit of research before I felt comfortable.

[@annthompson4817]

Why is it called double eagle?

[@sed6]

The original eagle is a $10 gold piece. This one is $20 hence double eagle

[@Intotheunknown11]

I’m confused, these are selling for 10 to 25 millions dollars why not sell

[@ralphdeclue5517]

No I was wrong it a 1903

[@ralphdeclue5517]

I hav a 1933 Saint Gaudens, double Eagle

[@mohammetmody9912]

I am from Oman I have 20 dollars Double Eagle 1924 I want to sell

[@BigstackMcgee]

Hello Mohammet mody - I would hold on to that one
