There are well made counterfeit gold coins in circulation. For example, the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle omega counterfeit is infamous for its complexity; and has fooled many numismatics experts. It is a high relief business strike, and due to the extensive wear on the die, these coins were not made for many years. For poor counterfeits, a good scale can usually tell if it's counterfeit or not; however, there are many well made counterfeited ancient coins that not only use gold, but the correct amount as well.

A misprinted currency note is known in numismatics as an error note, or simply a mistake that occurs during the printing process at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP). With the stringent quality controls practiced by the BEP, the chances of error notes reaching the public are really quite slim, but it does happen. Oftentimes these notes have numismatic value above the legal tender-value. The amount generally depends on the denomination, the complexity of the error and the condition of the note.

Gold bars are another investment option. Smaller bars cost more as the premium is low on larger bars. But resale of big bars is not easy. Gold coins are available at lower premiums as compared to gold bars.

More Gold & Silver Coins Information

When investing you want to weigh very heavily towards the coins that are most readily accepted at coin dealerships and markets around the word. Following are some of the most popular styles: American Eagle, American Buffalo, Canadian Maple Leaf, South African Krugerrand, Chinese Gold Panda, and Vienna Philharmonic. Some of the above listed coins are 22 karat gold (Eagles and Krugerrands) and others are 24 karat gold (Buffalos, Maple Leafs, Pandas, and Philharmonics). The great thing about buying a good variety of coins is you will diversify between 22 karat and 24 karat as well. Before buying, make sure you do your research and don't let the coin dealer talk you into something you're not interested in owning.

Although at a quick look, gold bars may often seem the cheapest way to invest in physical gold, experts point out that there are some drawbacks. Often the price for a single one ounce bar is the same as for a single one ounce krugerrand.
Buy Liberty silver dollars for a great investment.

Generally speaking, 19th century gold coins with very low original mintage figures tend to have prooflike surfaces more often than not. As an example, the 1890 quarter eagle pictured above is an issue with a mintage of only 8,720 and it is often found with reflective surfaces. Some of the other types of coins that are sometimes seen with prooflike surfaces include Philadelphia Type Three gold dollars, Philadelphia quarter eagles from the 1870's and 1880's, Three Dollar gold pieces and Liberty Head double eagles from the 1890's.

On my list of "do not buy" coins is those from the Franklin Mint and other premium collectibles mints (such as the Bradford Exchange, etc.) They are aggressive marketers who do sell genuine bullion coins (sometimes) but their coins usually do not have any after-market value among coin collectors and investors. You'll typically pay $45 plus for a one ounce silver coin that is only worth the value of its silver bullion when you go to sell it. (Silver bullion is at about $19 an ounce as I write this.)

As with most U.S. $1 Silver Certificates, most circulated $5 and $10 Silver Certificates only carry a small premium over face value, ranging from 10% to 30%. Uncirculated $5 and $10 Silver Certificates carry a larger premium, depending on the issue and the grade. There are several significantly scarcer and even rare varieties in these series, however, including the 1933 $10 Silver Certificate, the 1953-B $5 Silver Certificate Star Note, and others, and most Star notes from these series carry some premium (ranging from small to large) over the regular notes. Again, please refer to the Standard Guide to Small Size U.S. Paper Money (1928 to date), by Dean Oakes and John Schwartz, for more information.

There are two interesting subtypes of prooflike coins that the collector should be aware of. The first are coins that are Deep Mirror Prooflike. These are coins with especially reflective surfaces and a look that can be deceptively similar to that of a Proof. As an example, there are certain gold dollars from the 1880's that are extremely hard to tell apart from Proofs. Generally speaking, many of the gold coins that are designated as Deep Mirror Prooflike by NGC command strong premiums, especially for issues that are generally seen with frosty or satiny surfaces.

Old U.S. Federal Reserve Notes, 1928, 1934, 1950, 1963, etc. Most circulated Federal Reserve Notes from more modern series are worth no more than face value. Some of the early series notes (1928 and 1934) do carry a small premium, although for circulated notes this premium is small, usually 10% to 30%. Premiums are higher as a percentage of face value for lower denomination notes, such as $5 and $10 bills, as opposed to the higher denomination $20s, $50s, and $100s. Uncirculated notes and Star Notes of some of the earlier series do carry a large collector premium in some cases, and we highly recommend the standard reference book in this field, the Standard Guide to Small Size U.S. Paper Money (1928 to date), by Dean Oakes and John Schwartz, for more information.

Let's look at the doomsday scenario of investing. Many investors, myself included, hold gold because it is a great store of value. If our economy ever goes under (I sure hope it doesn't), gold and silver coins will be used to pay for goods and services. I sure want to hold different denominations and types of coins because not all goods and services cost the same amount. The smaller 1/10 ounce gold coins are the best for this scenario because they can be used to pay for smaller purchases. Silver coins are also really important under this scenario.
