December 2, 2009 - Gold Eagles are the most popular gold coins available to American investors, so understanding the gold Eagle market and gold Eagle prices is very important when you desire to fully maximize your investment potential. There are several different factors that can affect gold Eagle prices, and below I have briefly explained these facets of the market. You should have a better understanding of what to look for when searching for the best prices after completing this brief article.

The gold spot price is based on 1000-ounce gold bars from the COMEX, and this gold spot price is factored into the price of gold Eagles and other gold bullion investments. This spot price fluctuates constantly based on supply and demand, and you can track this important price indicator at www.Kitco.com and www.GoldPrice.net.

Dealer commission also comes into play when you are purchasing or selling American Eagle gold coins. Although our nation’s major gold exchanges offer commission-free purchasing and liquidation, dealer fees can vary significantly depending on the size and reputation of the company, as well as the integrity of your gold broker. When looking for the best prices, you may want to price-check several different reputable dealers.

There are two distinct types of gold Eagle coins, and each of these coins has its own specific purpose. Modern-day gold Eagle bullion coins trade based almost exclusively on the current gold spot price, and these coins also carry a 6.5% premium over spot levels. Certified historic gold Eagles fluctuate depending on their condition and rarity, as well as their inherent gold content.
