Gold Investing

Investing in gold and precious metals to preserve your wealth and diversify your portfolio has never been easier and made more sense. Take control of your financial future now. Buy rare gold and silver coins or bullion as an addition to your investment portfolio.

You could own gold and silver in the form of ETF’s, commodity options or mining shares. You can also own gold bars or modern minted and widely available bullion. But possession of rare, certified gold coins is unique since the rarity helps preserve the value your investment. And after all, isn't that the point? Every year, around 2,500 tons of gold is mined from the Earth. But the global demand for gold far outweighs the supply, driving up your investment even more.

There are basically two reasons people buy gold. The easiest and most obvious answer is to collect rare and valuable coins for fun or profit. This is called "numismatics" - the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money, and related objects. "Numismatists" are more interested in the rarity and beauty (as well as value) of the currency they collect but also view it as an investment.

Gold Investing To Protect Your Wealth
Another other reason to buy gold is wealth preservation. Historically, rare coins perform best when considered a long term investment. And long term investors often want to buy gold either to provide a safe haven for your assets in tumultuous economic times or simply to have sensible choice to diversify your portfolio.

Unlike many equity investments when you buy gold, you can do so with peace of mind knowing that the value of gold has never been zero. Investors aren't as concerned as much with the beauty of the particular types of gold they buy as they are with the safety, value and growth potential of gold investing. You don't have to be an expert collector to invest in gold.

When you invest in gold, you are not just putting your faith in the value of gold itself. Part of your portfolio should be in investment grade, collectible gold or silver coins that are in good condition and relatively scarce. That adds tremendously to the value of your gold investment almost like having a built-in insurance policy.

These coins are certified by either the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) or the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) so you can have greater confidence in your investment. These coins are easily liquidated when you are ready to close your position. We will buy back what we sell to you at any time or you can sell to any of the thousands of gold dealers across the country.

After determining your investment goals, time frame and amount you want to invest, we can set up a customized portfolio for you, including owning gold within your 401k or IRA.

Gold In Your 401k and IRA
Many people aren't aware that the IRS allows individuals to hold precious metals within their IRA and 401k retirement portfolios. We can help set this up for you with no taxes or penalties.

After 2008, imagine how your retirement plan might have looked if you had a percentage of it invested in gold. Diversifying your portfolio by investing in gold decreases your potential risk. It could even dilute your potential rewards. But if you are interested in at least preserving your wealth, you need to have a position in gold which is still yet expected to go much higher.

Physical metal, over time, has always offered a hedge against stock market volatility. If you purchase gold or silver within your existing IRA you will not take possession of the metal. It is stored at a depository in your name. Once you reach the age of 59 and a half you may then take delivery without penalty. Go here for more information on retirement planning with gold ownership.

We use only PCGS, and NGC certified, 'sight-seen' graded coins and we have access to all gold and silver, both bullion and numismatic. Bullion gold is a great place to start a gold investing portfolio. But adding rare, "numismatic" coins to the mix should be part of your portfolio as well.

Gold and silver numismatic coins have a "collectible" status which means you can buy and sell them without having to report it on a 1099-B, required by the IRS. This is also a valued aspect of owning rare coins, providing the investor with another increasingly rare and valuable asset in today's society - privacy.

With gold, you have personal and private control over your investment. While “private wealth” seems a thing of the past, gold gives you that privacy. Neither an IRS 1099 nor a social security number are required to own investment grade rare gold coins. No other tangible asset offers 100% privacy and portability except gems or diamonds which are not nearly as liquid as US rare gold coins.

We can help determine what percentage of your portfolio should be in gold based on your age, tolerance, years before or after retirement, etc.

Getting Started Investing In Gold Is Easy
