My commemorative un gold coins Reviews

Gold And Silver Coin Collecting Article Of The Month



Gold & Silver Coin Bullion Info

In 1861, on the brink of bankruptcy and pressed to finance the Civil War, U.S. Congress authorized the United States Treasury to issue paper money for the first time in the form of non-interest bearing Treasury Notes called Demand Notes.
Buy silver American eagle dollars as a great investment.

Some of the series that are famous for having above-average frosty luster include the Fat Head quarter eagles and half eagles from the 1820's and 1830's, Classic Head gold, No Motto Philadelphia issues and Three Dollar gold
Buy US paper money.

On my list of "do not buy" coins is those from the Franklin Mint and other premium collectibles mints (such as the Bradford Exchange, etc.) They are aggressive marketers who do sell genuine bullion coins (sometimes) but their coins usually do not have any after-market value among coin collectors and investors. You'll typically pay $45 plus for a one ounce silver coin that is only worth the value of its silver bullion when you go to sell it. (Silver bullion is at about $19 an ounce as I write this.)
Buy gold bullion coins.

There are two types of coins, those bought for their rarity or numismatic value and those bought for their precious metal bullion value. I recommend buying a one troy ounce bullion gold coin because they are much more affordable than numismatics and also for the same price you will get much more gold metal content which is the whole point of buying the coin (gold attracts wealth). Now that we have decided to buy a one troy once bullion coin, there are many selections. There are 22 karat coins and also 24 karat coins. Due to their durability, I recommend buying a 22 karat coin because they are much more resistant to nicks and scratches. The two best 22 karat coins to invest in are South African Krugerrands and US American Eagles. If you decide to go the 24 karat route, US Buffalos and Canadian Maple Leafs are the best choices. All four of these coins are very popular and readily exchangeable at coin dealers all around the world.
Buy cheap silver dollars for a great investment.
