I'm going to buy a lot of Gold to build a solid base for my investment portfolio.

I want it physically in my safe... NOT PAPER INVESTMENTS like E-Gold or a Gold Stock.

Lear Financial is trying to sell me gold investment coins (NOT GOLD BULLION).

I completely understand WHY you'd want to buy gold coins.

BUT I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT INVESTMENT COINS.
Do they advocate and sell good gold coins that are of the quality/grade they say?

They want to sell me the following...

$10 Liberty Head MS 63 at $1470 each
$5 Liberty Head MS 63 at $1293 each
Silver Peace Dollars MS 64 at $70 each

Thanks in advance...

If you want coins, just remember, the government can take that $1470 coin for its face value, $10.

Hi,
why aren´t you looking to buy gold bars instead of gold coins? You will receive more gold for your money.
There is also a difference between collector coins and bullion coins. The first ones I can´t recommend you, too high overpriced level, the second ones I can recommend you when you buy more than 2 ounces of pure gold.
If you want a secure place for storing your gold, than I can recommend you the Perth Mint Certificates, you can buy them on kitco.com and that´s the best way to get more gold for your money.
Kind regards.

I collect coins and looked up the ones you mentioned, that's near twice what they're worth. Never buy an MS 63 for an investment, they're just barely good enough to be called investment grade. Honestly, one of the best places to buy gold coins is E-Bay, just always get graded coins, there's a lot of values there. That said, if you don't know coins, using htem as in investment isn't as safe an idea as buying bullion coins. American Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs and there is a Chinese one, too.

Hope this helps

Do not buy gold coins or bullion. Commission you pay when you buy/sell, postage, storage more than you earn if you sell coin at profit. Any profit you earn will be lost. Many coins on E-Bay counterfeit. If you want to own "gold" best is ETF traded gold funds. NYSE: GLD or IAU. These are fixed amount of gold bullion verified and store in bank vault. Buy and sell like a stock. If you have account with Sharebuilder you pay only $4 each trade no matter how many share you buy/sell.

I support the idea to by third-party graded coins, in MS-65 grade or proofs. They are pleasure to have, and do not decrease in value with the time, normally. You can ask all of you coin questions at ebay coin collectors's discussion boards. Regulars there are very knowledgeable anfd helpful. The link - http://forums.ebay.com/db1/forum.jspa?forumID=8

What coming days? Agreed today is a mirror of the eighties crash conditions , Un experienced Super Fund Managers are being appointed, Banks lending too much, the money markets are here to stay, your gold as pieces is valued against high ticket fashion such as clothes, shoes, gifts and expendible items.
