  • Portable - With gold coins, a large quantity of wealth can be carried around in your pocket, and can be exchanged for silver and other currencies as needed. Gold coins are the most portable form of real wealth.


  • Hedge Against Inflation - If currencies collapse around the world, gold and silver will become much more sought after, obviously, but even if we only experience inflation (and we almost certainly will), gold retains its worth while currencies become devalued.

  • Universally Recognizable - Today you can exchange gold coins for cash in any coin shop and in many banks worldwide. It's recognized as wealth everywhere.


  • Easily Identifiable - Although gold coins can be faked, with lead content and a gold plated covering layer, any coin dealer can immediately tell real gold from fake, and in fact, so can any layman with very little training. A fake doesn't even sound the same clinking together in your hand. Testing for real gold is easily and quickly done by a coin dealer if there is any doubt.

  • It's Beautiful! - Besides all the reasons above, people just love gold for its physical beauty. While this is obvious to collectors in gold jewelry and trinkets, it's also true with coins! Its weight and brilliance make it a joy to hold in your hands and mints worldwide take advantage of this by minting the coins, rounds and bars in a large variety of designs.


  • Watch out for "100 Mills"! - Although this is pretty easy to spot if you've even started looking around online for gold and silver, it's worth pointing out. Anything mentioning "100 Mills" in the title or description of the auction is NOT really bullion at all, but gold-plated (or silver-plated) items of some other metal, usually copper. Most have figured this out and stay away from them, but if you're a newbie, look out for these. Read this article for more details. Other than that, don't be afraid to get started buying!


  • Why Not?! - You can begin accumulating wealth with gold gradually with small purchases that won't hurt your wallet. Even if gold prices fluctuate, if you get it and forget it, you'll be storing up real value, that may end up coming in handy later for you and your loved ones! Even if currencies around the world remain relatively in place and stable, gold will still not lose its value, and will still be exchangeable for cash.
