For coin collectors, nothing in the Singapore mint is worth keeping.

For bullion investors, nothing in the Singapore mint is cheap enough.

CapsuleMoney: #5 Intro to Precious Metals

CapsuleMoney: #12 Where to buy Precious Metals in Singapore?

You can read 2 of my old Blog post.
Be very careful when you buy Silver and Gold, you need to know the game right in order to play it well.

Similarly to Stocks, you need to at least know the basic logic and roughly know what is a "reasonable" price to buy it.

I am not a pro, but i had been collecting it for about 1year+, if you have any questions you can pm me, i will try my best to answer you.

Is a 1969 Singapore 150th aniversary foundation gold coin valuable?

All gold coins are valuable. :D
If u are talking abt numismatic value, no so much i think, cos quite a few of these coins available online and pawnshops

U can check on ebay... If u want to sell fast, sell at spot price (ie, check the weight and gold content and multiply with the gold price now).

If u are selling at spot price, pls pm me. = D

U guys have no sense of humour

I have wiped every one of this kind of gold coins I came across in the market over the last ten years. I bought them oftenly at lower than spot price using scare tactics. If you are interested to sell or buy, pm me. I can give you attractive discount like $5 off.
