I don't really get gold as an investment but I would love to own one of those for the pure joy of it as an object.

APMEX buy back price is currently $1,199.70.  Looks like you are offering a fair deal.  You might want to mention accepting escrow in order to sell.

Thanks for the tip. I've sold several eagles to a local gold dollar at spot for cash, so I'd definitely go with that instead of sending my coin through the mail. She's the one that kept insisting I get a buffalo actually, glad I took her advice. Once I got the coin I decided I would not sacrifice it for spot, and probably would keep it to play the gold market, at least this first one.

Yeah, I follow you on that one. It is very easy to get emotional attached to gold coins. I tried to sell one of my panda's ... but just could not let it go (still have it).
Nevertheless it is important to keep in mind why you bought it, if it was a gold investment then do you need to treat it as a bullion and sell it for what ever small % over spot you can get. If it was bought as a semi collectible, then will you need to keep in the mint seal for many years.

The gold market awards no premium to what ever emotional attachment the seller might have to the coin.

Same thing with quite a few users on here with their "HOLD" approach to BTC no matter what the market circumstances praying for the moon.

very nice coin indeed...does it come with a certificate of authenticity?

No bullion coins come with a COA, the buffalo coin contains such fine detail in the design its easy to spot a fake.

The one in the pic is still in original mint packaging and defo 100% genuine.

The detail doesn't look that fine to me and it would be *possible* to counterfeit something similar. Got to be so careful when buying gold from the second hand market as you could easily receive a different item from what is shown and the value is much higher than a lot of stuff sold here.
