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).
Buy rolls of American silver dollars for a great investment.



Metal and water do not go well together! Almost everyone intuitively knows to keep their coins from getting wet but many collectors do not realize that even the moisture present in the air (humidity) can be enough to cause damage. Silica gel absorbs moisture that makes its way inside your safe deposit box, safe or other storage area preventing it from reaching your coins and causing damage. Silica gel can be easily reactivated in the oven when it has absorbed as much moisture as it can hold. Before shopping for silica gel, measure the size of the area to be protected and then buy the appropriate size of silica gel for storage space.
Buy US paper money.

When investing you want to weigh very heavily towards the coins that are most readily accepted at coin dealerships and markets around the word. Following are some of the most popular styles: American Eagle, American Buffalo, Canadian Maple Leaf, South African Krugerrand, Chinese Gold Panda, and Vienna Philharmonic. Some of the above listed coins are 22 karat gold (Eagles and Krugerrands) and others are 24 karat gold (Buffalos, Maple Leafs, Pandas, and Philharmonics). The great thing about buying a good variety of coins is you will diversify between 22 karat and 24 karat as well. Before buying, make sure you do your research and don't let the coin dealer talk you into something you're not interested in owning.
