Sammelbestellung von 1 Unze American Eagles (J. 2000) !? - 500 Beiträge pro Seite

[golden-bear]

Habe vor ca. 3 Wochen gelesen, dass bisher 2000er Eagles extrem selten geprägt wurden!
D.h. sie steigen zusätzlich zum Goldpreis erheblich im Wert.
Habe bis heute nirgends welche erwerben können.
Bleibt nur eine Bestellung via USA.
Aber das kostet Fracht u. Versicherung.
Wer möchte evtl. eine Sammelbestellung aufgeben?
Muss m.W. noch diese Woche passieren, sonst too late.
Ich selbst brauche nur 1 bis 3 Stück, daher bestelle ich nicht selbst.
Schnelle Rückmeldungen erbeten, falls interessiert...

GOLD REVIEW

As gold searches for a new rebottoming between $250 and
$265 an ounce the case for gold has never been stronger.
Were it not for the manipulation of its price it would be
priced exceedingly higher. Demand continues to exceed
supply by a wide margin. 70% of gold mining companies
have either gone out of business or have merged, which
means producers will be hard pressed to maintain current
production. Exploration expenditures are off 80%, which further complicates
matters. The longer prices stay at these manipulated levels the more
chance there is that more mines will shut down further reducing production.
Oil prices at worst in 2002 will be $20 a barrel which is still somewhat
inflationary and that figure assumes a major economic slowdown worldwide
and no disrupting wars. Whether we have continued inflation or deflation, if
world stock markets go into a bear market we can assure you they`ll be a
flight to quality as the dollar finally recedes in value.

Almost a year ago a domestic silver market was opened in China and a gold
market could soon follow. It is expected, that if the gold market was
deregulated, that consumption would quickly rise to 500-600 tons a year.

AngloGold`s earnings for the 2nd quarter were off 11.3% to 55 cents a
share. Cash costs were $209 an ounce. They received $274 an ounce for
production. In order to stay in production they increased their hedge cover.
Why don`t they shut done break even or close to break even operations?
Their hedging just pushes gold prices lower and depletes reserves.

As of Sept. 30th, the mark-to-market value of Newcrest Mining of Australia,
was a negative A$413.8 million and the copper hedge book stood at a
negative A$125.8 million.

Australian gold producers hedge books have reached concerning
proportions. As the Aussie dollar falls these hedge books go deeper in the
red, which explains why the Reserve Bank intervened to prop the currency
up. It is estimated that the four leading Australian gold producers, Normandy
Mining, Newcrest Mining, Sons of Gwalia and Delta Gold face a total of
A$1.8 billion in potential liabilities from their gold and currency hedge books.
It is estimated that their total bank debt is A$2.5 billion.

Our top choice to buy is Agnico-Eagle - AEM (NYSE), which is unhedged
and Crystallex - KRY (ASE), which is slightly hedged. We are not
compensated by either company. These are our only gold share
recommendations presently.

It should be of interest that the media and bullion dealers have told investors
that the Aussie producers were continuing to sell driving gold prices lower,
when in fact they have done little selling or further hedging. That means the
bullion banks have been the sellers.

We think after Nov. 15th gold will rally into January, perhaps to $290 to
$300 an ounce. If we are correct all hell could break loose in the gold and
silver markets especially if the Dow and Nasdaq test their lows as we expect
them to.

On 11/1/00 Comex gold warehouse stocks were unchanged at 1,865,481
ounces, while silver stocks were down 362,703 ounces to 95,386,520
ounces.

As gold shares have been plummeted recently two stocks that we
recommended have done quite well. Agnico Eagle, AEM, 5 1/8 and
Crystallex, KRY, $1.25. Below is a recent commentary on KRY, which
suggests it will be everything we told you it would be.

Crystallex (Amex: KRY) has received backing from Venezuela`s mining and
energy congressional committee for its plans to develop theLas Cristinas
gold-copper project in southeastern Bolivar State.

"Its development will provide a significant boost to the national and regional
economy with the creation of some 6,000 jobs, direct and indirect," a
committee statement said after members met with Crystallex
representatives.

"Las Cristinas hosts one of Latin America`s best gold deposits, but its
extraction has been frozen for ten years, with damaging consequences for
the national interest."

Crystallex has promised a US$400mn investment for the project and
delivery of the first gold ingot within 120 days of starting operations "thanks
to the fact that Crystallex already has in place the installations and
resources necessary for start-up," the committee added.

Crystallex has invested more than US$120mn in its other Venezuelan gold
operations, the committee said, while Las Cristinas` international value
showed trust in the country`s future given its enormous economic potential.

We thought this might interest you. We bought for ourselves, and we
receive no compensation from this company. From Pat Gorman`s Resources
Consultants, Inc., "Year 2000 1-ounce Gold Eagles" In 1986 the US
government enacted the GOLD EAGLE Act. This new move from Congress
enabled the US Mint to mint both Gold and Silver coins. Since that time they
have been minting 1 ounce, 1/2 ounce, 1/4 ounce, and 1/10 ounce gold
coins for the purpose of ownership from its citizens. The real reason they
started minting the coins is to compete with the Canadian Maple Leaf and
South African Krugerrand.

A major part of the new law was that the US Mint would only produce the
amount of coins ordered. Meaning, if one million 1-ounce coins were
ordered from the mint in a given year, the mint would produce that many
coins. They would never speculate on how busy the gold market may or
may not be. If the coins were ordered they would mint them. If not, they
would not. I know this is over simplification, but stay with me and I will show
you where it leads.

We went back to 1992 to see the mintage figures for the 1-ounce Gold
Eagles. Some years they minted 250,000 and some years they minted over
a million coins. We averaged those 8 years and came up with an average
mintage of US 1-ounce Gold Eagles of 637,500 per year.

You too can find these figures by going to Al Gores invention, the Internet,
and looking up www.usmint.gov. Once you get there it is sometimes tricky to
find the production figures for any coin. If you are having trouble with this,
call us and we will step you through the process to get to the production and
sales figures. It even took me awhile to find them.

Well, we have been leaving you hanging in suspense way too long. Year
2000 1-ounce Gold Eagle production through September 1st of this year
has only been 12,500 coins. That`s right only 12,500 coins. They have
produced in the entire first 9 months, the same amount they used to
produce every three weeks, the last two years.

This coin could have major upside potential. Let`s compare. 1989 and 1991,
1/2 ounce Gold Eagles had a production of only 24,000 coins and right now
sells for $350.00 each. That`s the equivalent of $700 per ounce gold. Gold
spot price as of this writing is $272.00 per ounce. At this current spot price
of gold the Year 2000 1-ounce Gold Eagles sell for only $296.50 each. We
can get even a better price for larger orders.

Just think of it, Year 2000, new millennium, new century, and the lowest
mintage of any year on any coin since the Gold eagle Act was enacted in
1986. They only mint these until the middle of December, so don`t wait too
long to pick up your Year 2000 1-ounce Eagles. All the other sizes for this
year have mintage`s comparable to every other year. The only sleeper is the
1-ounce coin. Call us at 800-494-4149 or locally at 480-820-5877 and pick
up as many as you can. They would make nice Holiday gifts for everyone
and this may just be the biggest no-brainer since Microsoft.

"Centaur Mining and Exploration (of Australia) warned the financial market
on its hedging costs on October 31, 2000. Centaur said it was not
generating sufficient revenue to meet negative monthly outflow linked to its
metal and currency hedge position."

"Newcrest Mining Ltd. led the market down, failing 16.5 cents, or 4.2%,
A$3.80. The stock posted its biggest intra-day decline in six months, falling
as much as 6.7% to A$3.70 after analysts said Australia`s No.2 gold miner`s
currency and copper hedging positions will hurt earnings."

It was two to three weeks ago that Midas put this news out to Cafe
members. A Newcrest executive took me to task for what he thought I
misrepresented. Since the Midas commentary, the share prices of Centaur
and Newcrest have tanked even though the Aussie dollar gold price is very
high. Cafe commentary was right on, once again!

This may be only the beginning of big Aussie gold producer hedging
problems - as said Ad Nauseum for these past weeks. If gold moves higher
and the Aussie dollar does not go with it. Uh Oh.

In essence, this is confirmation of our alert: Problems Down Under!!!

Back to the sinking Aussie dollar. It opened sharply lower today, 10/31/00
into the US market then found a way to rally back 80% of what it lost. OK.
But, then it just opened 45 points lower when Australia opened once again.

You can be sure of one thing. Chase, Morgan, Goldman Sachs and the US
Gov are doing what they can to control the Aussie dollar and the gold price.
There are big credit problems in Australia as the Cafes Dr. Neville Bennett
has informed us. Their Aussie dollar is in trouble. It is creating BIG problems
for the Gold Cartel.

It is effecting all the Aussie hedging operations and, in some cases, certain
company`s future viability.

It could easily end up to be a "CAR 54 WHERE ARE YOU?"
