Rare Coin Market Update: Is there a heat wave?

by John Feigenbaum Posted on July 25, 2010

It Sure is Hot Out Here…
It’s been a while since my last market report, so I’m long overdue writing this entry. The coin market has been humming along steadily and business has been pretty good. Not great, but good.

Gold Toying with $1000 levels…

As you probably know gold is flirting with $1000 per ounce levels for the first time in months. The market saw a $21 correction today (after hitting $981!) but that’s healthy given the rapid climb this week. Along with this new movement, we’ve seen a lot of buyers looking for “generic” gold coins on our site this week, which is very encouraging. As we head into the ANA show in… Continued...
