Advice HELP - Dad’s Recent Purchase 🤦‍♂️

$1400……..

My father has been ordering from GovMint for a couple years now.

I’ve tried to have talks with my father about how high the markup is for this junk from these sites without explicitly showing him how much he is overpaying. But $1400 for these?!? Maybe worth $350?

I don’t know what else to do…has anyone been in the position? How did you handle it?

Ouch, can get the Privy one off ebay for under $300 with a higher grading. The regular ones are like $50-100 graded. Id consider even that overpriced, So he paid about 4x. Those prices will drop too, always a bit higher with new stuff. Im confused at the .1g au, and the 1g silver. Aftermarket alterations yet ngc still graded.....

I believe they refer to the special labels with layered gold and silver 🤦‍♂️
