Gold Coins For Collecting And Investment?
Gold coins are coins entirely or almost entirely made of gold. Gold has been used for currency for thousands of years due to its intrinsic value and because it is regarded as a universal form of currency by most of the world's societies.Gold's beauty and durability has made it highly useful for coinage. Its economic value stems from its scarcity, which resists destabilization of value. Since gold has a high density-to-value ratio, it can easily be converted into smaller units without loss of value.The Egyptian Pharaohs made gold coins in the third millennium, B.C., mostly for use as gifts. The first gold coins used for circulation were issued around 600 B.C. by Croesus of Lydia. The Chinese minted gold coins known as ying yuang around 60 B.C. They also manufactured different units of gold, such as the talent, which was the forerunner of the modern 400 troy oz. ingot.Afterwards, gold coins became universally accepted as a form of currency and for international trading between merchants and governments. Use of gold for currency was abandoned in the early 20th century, when most world governments dropped the gold standard as a response to the hoarding of gold in the face of the Great Depression. The United States ceased to value the dollar in relation to gold in 1933, and forbade gold hoarding.Gold remains highly valuable, however, for purposes of collecting as well as for bullion. Collecting of gold coins is lucrative, and coins are valued on condition, rarity, age and the number of coins minted of a certain type. For example, Southby's sold an exceedingly rare 1933 U.S. Double Eagle in 2002 for over $7.5 million. And in 1999, a Liberty Head Golden Eagle from 1854 sold for $135,700. Many collectors buy gold coins for investment purposes, as their collectable value tends to increase over time.Bullion gold is gold in bulk, either as coin or ingots. It's used primarily for commodities trading. Bullion's value is based on purity and density rather than its face value as currency. Many traders invest in bullion as a hedge against inflation, or for investment purposes.The European Union designates certain gold coins to be used for investment purposes. The South African Krugerrand was created especially for investors. It's highly valued due to its high gold content of one troy ounce.
