I'm comparing the Royal Canadian Mint's Gold Reserve ETR (TSE:MNT) to the Perth Mint Gold fund (ASX:PMGOLD), which is traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The funds are similar in that they are both publicly traded shares of unallocated gold stored in a government mint that you can...

Looks like a cheap way to hold real gold rather than buy and store. They say you can redeem for bullion, plus fees. What do you guyz think?

For the investors with gold holdings of any form, what are you folks' opinions about the MNT or MNS? Is it better than CGL or even holding physical?
