Check the quality and popularity of gold coins before you buy

 

There is a lot to learn before spending your hard earned dollars to buy gold coins. Make sure to do your due diligence before making any investment.

 Two important factors in determining the value of gold coins are quality and popularity.

 Quality: The actual quality of a coin can vary depending on a number of factors, but it is mainly based on a few things: shine, color and bump, although often the beauty of the coin can raise its value in the market. Since all coins are not minted at the same time, when considering the quality of a coin, it is important to consider the date the specific coin was minted. At certain times, lesser quality coins were minted in smaller quantities, and these, although their quality is lower, are worth it.

 Popularity - Simply put, the more popular a coin is, the more valuable it is. For example, American Eagle coins minted before 1933 are quite popular, as is the 1976 Krugerrand coin. For no specific reason, certain gold coins become a favorite among investors.

 Like diamonds, gold coins are not all the same and their value varies. It takes a trained eye to identify the differences between them, but with that eye, you can begin to build a portfolio of coins that are of high quality, grade, rarity, and popularity.

Collectors & # 39; Coins can be more valuable than gold bullion coins. But the learning curve for collectors & # 39; The coins are much more pronounced.

 The value of bullion coins lies in the intrinsic value of the sell gold itself, not in the grade or popularity.

 Remember that gold cannot be created. There is a limited supply and that increases its value. In general, gold can be an excellent investment, but it is especially "buyer bewares" in this area of ​​investments.
