Only if you are collecting the coins for their silver or bullion content. The melt value depends on the silver price that changes daily in line with demand and supply. Collecting bullion coins is a way of preserving wealth in uncertain economic and political times. Coins are portable and gold coins, ounce for ounce, is obviously more valuable. Bullion does not pay interest or dividends, hence some investors prefer gold or silver mining shares, as they generally pay dividends. Some pundits say one should have 5% of ones wealth in bullion. As with everything, diversification is essential and I would not put all my eggs in one basket. I hope that helps.
Gold coins are popular for both collecting and investing—collectors value rarity and history, while investors prefer bullion coins like Eagles or Krugerrands for their gold content. Always buy from trusted dealers; many, like BOLD Precious Metals, offer a wide range of bullion and collectible coins.
