U.S. Gold Coins - Common Dates

Printer Friendly Version

Recommended for bulk gold investors!

U.S. gold coins are a superb way to invest in the gold market. Combining true scarcity, constant collector demand, and excellent value today, gold coins provide all of the investment benefits of gold bullion plus the accelerated profit potential that only scarce, collectible coins can offer.

Minted around 100 years ago, these classic U.S. gold coins are in constant demand worldwide for their beauty, fine gold content, true scarcity, and historical significance. We generally favor coins in the middle-to-high Mint State range (MS62 to MS65) because they tend to provide the best comination of scarcity, low cost, and leverage to a rising gold price. If you're looking for coins graded MS66 to MS70, please call 1-800-613-9323. All Mint State gold coins are certified by NGC or PCGS; XF and AU coins are "raw," or uncertified. All coins are strictly hand-selected by AGE for outstanding quality-in-grade.

Better than bullion

We recommend common date U.S. gold coins to bullion investors who are looking for additional leverage to a rising gold price. Because of their true scarcity and high collector demand, these gold coins typically rise at a faster rate than gold bullion during periods of high demand. Plus, as collectible coins, they're exempt from broker reporting and government confiscation. They offer privacy, portability, security, and very easy liquidity.

True scarcity, high demand

Although called "common dates," these classic U.S. coins are actually quite scarce. Of the many millions originally minted, almost all were heavily used in circulation during the 1800s and early 1900s. Only a small fraction survives today in Choice Uncirculated (MS63), Near-Gem Uncirculated (MS64), and Gem Uncirculated (MS65), the grades most keenly sought by investors and collectors.

All of our U.S. gold coins are certified for grade and authenticity by NGC or PCGS, the most widely trusted coin certification firms. Your satisfaction is guaranteed. And our prices, quality, and service are among the best in the country. See what our customers have to say.
