On Wednesday, Nov. 11, there’s a good chance that the United States Mint will trim prices on its line of collectible gold coins by as much as $50 for every ounce of gold they contain.
The U.S. Mint reduced gold coin prices just last week, on Nov. 4, when the weekly average of London gold sank to within the range of $1,100.00 to $1,149.99 an ounce. The precious metal has tumbled further since, tracking a more than three-month low at around $1,087 an ounce.
If Wednesday’s LBMA gold price for the AM is below $1,124.96 an ounce and the fixing for the PM remains under $1,100 an ounce, expect the following reductions in gold coin prices:
| From | To | |
| 2015-W $100 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin* | $1,540.00 | $1,490.00 |
| 2015-W Proof Gold Buffalo Coin (1 oz) | $1,490.00 | $1,440.00 |
| 2015-W Uncirculated Gold Eagle Coin (1 oz) | $1,425.00 | $1,375.00 |
