On Wednesday, Nov. 30, the United States Mint may reduce prices on its suite of collector gold coins by as much as $50 for every ounce of gold they contain.
The agency’s collections of numismatic gold coins have prices that can change weekly depending on the trending value of gold. The U.S. Mint most recently cut prices on Nov. 16 when the average for gold slipped between $1,200.00 and $1,249.99 an ounce. The precious metal has since hit a more than 9-1/2-month low and is now trading near $1,187 an ounce.
If the Wednesday PM LBMA gold price remains below $1,200 an ounce, then coin prices will fall. The following table lists the current and possible prices:
