With a shortage of GOLD coins, would buying GOLD jewelry be a good substitute?

There is currently a high demand for GOLD in this economy. However, now there is a shortage of GOLD because people are hoarding them as a financial safe haven. The only other GOLD that is available is jewelry. However, I hear that jewelry has less value and don’t hold up as well as actual GOLD bullion bars and coins.

But with GOLD in such high demand would buying jewelry be sensible alternative?

Gold Coins: how important is it that is came in its original mint package?

I am interested in buying some gold coins, like the American Eagle, Canadian Maple, etc.

I want to buy it for investment.

So it is it necessary/important that I get them in their orginally sealed state (as from the mint) and with a authenicity cerficate of BU (brilliant uncirculated)?

Or I can just get them in uncirculated conditions? and still be able to sell them with equal values as the sealed ones?

Thanks

How come gold is listed at 900 dollars, but 1 oz coins sell for higher?

Hey,

I am thinking about buying some gold coins, Krugerrand or American Buffalo. I am looking at prices on ebay, and they are all selling for around 1050. I’m assuming these are all real, because the sellers have such good feedback scores. Would love to hear from anyone with any experience in these matters.

Thanks,

How to buy gold – Gold dollars vs. Gold coins?

Hello,

I have an interest in buying gold. However, I am very confused by the different gold coins (american eagle, american buffalo) and the golden dollar. Can someone please breakdown the differences for me?

Specifically, are the golden dollars, such as the 2002 Golden Dollar (Denver Mint Mark A23) made of gold? Why does an american eagle cost so much?

Thank you
