Host Tiffany Georgopoulos speaks with Kevin Hauser of Miles Franklin Precious Metals about how physical gold and silver are priced, purchased, and compared. Kevin explains the difference between spot price and the premium added as metal moves from a mint or refinery through wholesalers, distributors, dealers, and ultimately to the buyer. He also breaks down how investors can choose between sovereign coins, bullion bars, rounds, fractional gold, and graded numismatic coins based on budget, location, resale goals, and desired cost per ounce. The discussion covers Gold Eagles, Gold Buffalos, Silver Eagles, older collectible coins, and why larger bars generally carry lower premiums per ounce. Kevin also showcases a rare ten-kilogram coin weighing approximately 27 pounds and discusses how some states are treating certain United States minted gold and silver coins as legal tender. #Millettian
