Buying Gold Eagle
Today’s savvy household precious metal investors benefit from buying Gold Eagle coins through reputable large-volume exchanges, rather than paying the exorbitant retail prices that local gold dealers typically charge. These investors know that local dealers also lack the inventory and expertise required to customize each individual investor’s specific needs, let alone the ability to instruct novice investors on the nuances that accompany buying Gold Eagle coin.
Gold Eagles come in bullion and rare coin form, whose prices are on opposite ends of the precious metals investment spectrum. Bullion Eagles are modern, $50 American Eagle, 22-Karat coins that contain no numismatic value, but possess one full Troy ounce of pure gold. Since they don’t possess the numismatic value that rare coins possess, $50 American Eagles’ prices usually hover just above the current gold spot price, which is the cost of one Troy ounce of pure gold. American Eagle investors can also enjoy the legendary beauty of rare coin craftsmanship, as the obverse design on $50 American Eagles is a near replica of the famed, $20 Saint Gaudens rare coin, minted from 1907 to 1933.
Conversely, rare coins like the aforementioned $20 Saint Gaudens, do possess numismatic value, which generally tends to appreciate over time. This inherent benefit makes rare coins historically proven long-term, safe haven assets, but also commands exponentially higher premiums than the current gold spot price.
