All good Freddie! I'm sure you won't have
any problem selling a 1oz $50 American gold eagle. It's among the most desirable and liquid gold bullion coins on the planet. Most trusted retailers charge a higher premium on gold and silver eagles than standard bullion coins from other sovereign mints (not including limited mintage or collector coins). If it's in descent condition, with no big scuffs or abrasions, most local coin shops/ bullion dealers anywhere around me would be offering
something over spot price. Even some online bullion dealers are paying over spot right now, though I personally wouldn't feel comfortable sending something like that off in the mail.
What's the deal with the 1933 20 dollar double eagle? In the picture above it looks like it was cracked out of a slab, possibly certified. You didn't march that thing down to your surly, old local coin shop owner, did ya?
This picture is a good starting point for what a 2016 AGE would cost you today. I feel Apmex is usually more expensive than I am willing to pay, but they
are a good source to find specific mintage years, in stock.
Are you into precious metal recovery or refining at all? I am currently collecting & processing different components from old computer equipment and other discarded electronics. I am researching how to extract the precious metals in hopes to later refine them and eventually pour myself a nice bar, or a shiny button(s)! Others here process everything from industrial scrap to old jewelry and refine the values. Some here consider themselves hobbyist, others do it professionally, and on an industrial scale. This forum has an abundance of helpful posts and members. I imagine any level of refiner across the world would consider this forum a veritable "goldmine" once they have found it.
Good Luck!
