SS Central America Octagonal Humbert $50 Gold Commemorative 2.5 ounce gold coin is it worth buying?

Not a super numismatic item, but it has much greater liquidity - note that the seller of the Central America abomination has probably had their pieces on hand, unsold, for four or five years now. Afew years ago 350 of the 2.5 ounce taken were made they are not selling like hot cakes. Monaco might send me on on approval since i bought two other gold offerings from them. I've always liked the $50 buffalo and finally decided to buy one. |

Liquidity should not be a primary issue...collect for enjoyment and
appreciation of the piece...not investment. Someone who pays $100,000 to add some obscure half dollar to a series isn't doing so for investment...its because they want that complete set more than anything. |

Unless you are wealthy above and beyond your 'collections', liquidity is ALWAYS a concern for a thoughtful collector of expensive items. |

I hate to be Johnny One-note (well not really), but 5% back of melt might be overpaying. If you buy and ever wanna resell this pup, you will learn real fast that is a prime melting pot item. oly |

A piece like this will never be worth more than its bullion value. A dealer would probably not even pay you full bullion value for it. Krugerands remain the best value in gold, not contrived crap like this. |
