The Best Information on buy gold bullion coins

Collectors And Coin Dealers Article Of The Day



More Gold & Silver Coins Info

There is a good way to diversify in gold coin investing: by date. When you start getting into date and buying older coins, you get into the realm of numismatics. Once you have a solid bullion collection of coins, old and rare coins can definitely help your diversification cause. One great way to do this is to throw a few $20 gold Saint Gaudens double eagles in your portfolio, the most beautiful gold coin of all time. However, the topic of numismatics is a little beyond the scope of this article which is all about diversifying your bullion coin collection.

Whatever method you try to clean a coin, it's best to test it on a non-valuable coin of similar metal first. That way if a certain method does have bad effects, you'll find out before you ruin a valuable coin. I discovered this much to my chagrin when cleaning a batch of 1943 steel pennies in an acid solution. I'll never know if it would have worked, because I had the pennies in a galvanized steel container and the acid, combined with the galvanization, fused the pennies into one worthless chunk.

In 1955 U.S. Congress expanded the earlier law that stated that the motto "In God We Trust" could be placed on all U.S. coinage to one that required the motto to be placed on all coins and paper money. However, "In God We Trust" did not actually appear on U.S. paper money until after 1957. Since paper money is not dated yearly, but by series numbers that are based on changes in style and design, Series 1935G and 1935H Silver Certificates bear the motto because they were produced after 1957.

When collecting paper money always start looking in the inexpensive places first if you purchase your banknotes. You may be surprised at what you can find very inexpensively. For example, many coin shops have boxes of currency for sale for 10 cents each, 25 cents each, and on up. Sometimes they are behind the counter, you may need to ask for them. Often you can find great bargains this way.

Most U.S. National Bank Notes are relatively inexpensive, although the range in value is quite large. The definition of "common" may also not be typical with National Bank Notes, as a note from a bank with only a couple of dozen notes known may be considered "common." This is because, while there only may be a limited number of notes known from a specific bank, more than 14,000 National Banks were chartered to issue these notes, and no single collector can reasonably hope to own them all. As such, most collectors specialize in a single state, city, or even bank. As a result, there may only be a small number of collectors interested in notes from a particular bank, so supply and demand is the overriding factor in value. A note from a bank with as few as five or six notes known may only be worth a small amount of money if only two or three interested collectors are in the market for such a note. The standard reference book to National Bank Notes, by Don C. Kelly, is a must for research on this series of notes.

The Vienna Philharmonic gold coin is one the Austrian Mint first began producing in 1989 and it quickly became very popular. This coin was the best selling gold bullion coin in the world in 1992, 1995, and 1996 according to World Gold Council. Minted in 1-oz., �-oz., �-oz., and 1/10-oz. sizes, all Vienna Philharmonics are made from 99.99% pure gold. No alloyed metals are added. All coins are minted at the Austrian Mint AG, now a subsidiary of the Austrian National Bank. The Mint was established in 1194 and has remained in its current building since 1837.

A banknote collection is an expression of its owner�s personal tastes and interests. There are no set rules regarding collecting themes; you can be as individualistic as you like. Some collectors specialize in notes from one country only - often their own. Some collect from groups of countries; British Commonwealth, Europe, or Africa, for example. Others collect notes from one period in history - WW2 for example. Others collect notes with some rare peculiarity, like those with printer�s errors. Some collect forgeries. The scope is limited only by your imagination. Many collectors start out just buying anything that happens to appeal. Some prefer to be more specialised. A specialised collection does have a unique appeal and can often be sold for more than the combined values of its individual components. However, the pitfall of becoming too specialised is that suitable material will be increasingly hard to find. But why not compile a specialised collection while simultaneously building a more general, free-style one?

There is a large group of people who collect world paper money. Some people focus on specific countries of interest and even specific time periods in specific countries. Often interest in paper money follows an interest in the general history as well. Some collectors focus on things ranging from notes with portaits of Queen Elizibeth to notes with pictures of boats to notes with specific serial numbers (all the same digit or very low serial numbers).
