They Were Not Gold! But Gold Plated
If you read the post made yesterday about my gold buying adventure you know that the fool mentioned is me. Well, today I found out that the little tiny coins weighed a little over 1 penny weight but failed the test for real gold. I was told it was probably gold plated.
Now, I was hoping for at least $8.00 to cover my investment. But it just did not happen. What did happen was a wonderful education and I will hold those coins to share my story. And yes, I will still use Ebay to buy and sell online but with much more wisdom.
I also decided to start a series called “Cool Coin Tips”. This will be recordings by coin experts on buying, selling and collecting coins. The series should start next week.
Would you like that?
