On Wednesday, Nov. 4, expect the United States Mint to cut prices on nearly two dozen collectible gold coins. The agency bases pricing on a weekly average of London gold and the precious metal has fallen steadily in recent days, actually dropping to a one-month low.
Current U.S. Mint prices were established almost two weeks ago when gold firmly rallied to within the range of $1,150.00 to $1,199.99 an ounce. The yellow metal at this writing is sinking toward $1,124 an ounce.
If Wednesday’s LBMA PM gold price remains below $1,150 an ounce, expect the following reductions in gold coin prices:
