I buy 1 oz US Mint coins for my grandkids every birthday an Christmas instead of presents. I've paid as little as $20 and as much as $34. Just bought 4 "dollars" at Christmas at $39 each. The reputable coin dealer suggested to wait until next year when he thinks they will be in the low $30's. Anecdotal, but I have trusted this guy for 18 years.
