Buy Liberty Gold coins for their numismatic and investor value to add to your holdings.
When you buy U.S. Mint Gold coins, you are not paying the Gold spot price, instead you pay a premium Gold coin price. The price of Gold coins includes not only the raw Gold value, or the spot price, but also incorporates the cost of fabrication, distribution and a minimal dealer fee. Gold coins, like the Liberty Gold Eagle, also include numismatic, or collector value in the price, which may be influenced by historical value, beauty, rarity and mintage. Gold Eagle coins stand out because they have historical value and are more rare (due to many being melted down over the years), but these Gold coins still offer an affordable price so you can own a piece of history
Buy Gold in several different forms and understand the differences.
You can buy Gold coins, rounds or bars, each with a different premium over spot price. U.S. Mint Gold coins, and other sovereign Gold coins, are produced by government mints and exceed not only the face value of the coin, but the current price of Gold, due to their numismatic, or collector, value. In contrast to Liberty Gold Eagle and other coins, Gold bars have little to no numismatic value, so they have the least markup over Gold spot price, making them ideal for investors not interested in historical value or beauty. Not to be confused with Gold Eagle coins, Gold rounds have more in common with Gold bars, with similar markups and both are typically manufactured by private mints.
