The local jewler has a $10 gold coin I have been eyeing up. I bet he went up on his price. I think the new $5 bill came out too.

I recall years ago when everyone was excited when gold hit $400 an ounce - wonder where it will all end?

On the news the other morning they said wholesalers were good but to make sure you know the opening price/current price when you sell. Could be a bunch difference either way. Speak -up if golds up, keep quite if its down.
