Check Kitco.com spot gold price. Keep in mind, that is what the gold is worth. If you are buying it it will cost more. Currently is is about $680.00 per ounce, spot gold. So you can add another 10% to buy it retail or about $750.00. Buying gold is risky, in the sense that you can spend a lot of money and lose the value like any stock.
Having a few coins is fine if you can afford it. I wouldn't put money in gold unless I already had other instruments for making money.
Plus you might want to be out of debt when you make these purchases.

Agreat deal wold depend on several factors. factors. One . How much gold in the coin and how rare is it? Two. What is the demand for the coin?
For example. If there is an ounce of gold in the coin, assum,e about 600.00 for that ounce,next if the coin is rare and in demand, add another couple of hundred. So your answewr is probably 800.00 to 1000.00. Of course if it is a historical coin the price would increasew substantially.
