Daily Gold Coin Update
July 1, 2009 – Gold coin investments have slowly but surely become a favorite to many wise American investors within the past eight years as the spot price of the metal has climbed more than 300% while the United States economy dwindled into this current financial crisis. As you may already know, gold coin investments are categorized into two major groups, each with their own distinct benefits and risks. These two groups are the modern-day bullion coins like the American Eagles and South African Krugerrands and the certified rare coins like the $20 Lady Liberties and $10 Indian Heads. Depending on your personal investing goals and needs, you may want to choose products from one or the other, yet some investors purchase from both. Historically, modern-day bullion coins are used as a short-term profit-taking diversification because their low premium allows investors to purchase and sell them in order to make quick profit, while on the other hand certified rare coins are used as a long-term preservation diversification because they have shown less volatility and higher returns than bullion when held over a period of three years or longer.

By around 1:30 PM Eastern Standard Time, the majority of gold coins are increasing in value as the spot price of the metal takes a significant step upwards to $940.80 per ounce, an increase of 1.53% for the day, and also an increase of .12% in the last year.
