[quote=mixxalot]Is there a way to determine a real gold or silver coin from a fake when buying from a coin store in San Diego like San Diego Coin and Vault or BlueVault? I did not like the wait and check only policy at these places. If I pay 10K to buy gold, I want to take possession that time of purchase![/quote]
When I’ve been to BlueVault, I paid cash for stock on hand. But I only buy a few coins a year (at least $1500 at a time). Never tried to buy $10K worth! Their website is pretty accurate about their stock, and you can call them ofc. They’ll use the Fisch in front of you.
I don’t know how concerned we should be about fakes. I’ve only gotten real stuff from trusted retailers. Bullion is such a tiny fringe industry I don’t think counterfeiters bother too much with bullion. I’m more concerned about fake $100 bills.
