That depends on your goals. We typically answer that question with one of our own, “Why are you interested in buying gold?” If your goal is simply to hedge financial uncertainly and/or capitalize on price movement, then the contemporary bullion coins just mentioned will serve your purposes. On the other hand, those approaching gold more as a safety-net and/or asset-preservation tool often see value in the added privacy and liquidity advantages associated with the ‘historic bullion’ coin category – coins minted before 1933 – that still trade at modest premiums to the underlying spot price of gold, track the gold price, and enjoy strong liquidity internationally.
