Question Newbie here, looking for guidance buying bullion as investment

Good day all, I new to the site (which looks great) and to bullion investing. To keep it simple, I have no time or interest in collecting or in a new hobby, maybe when I retire. At this time, I'm just looking to hedge my bets with some real assets. I've been hammered like everyone else in stocks, 401Ks, real estate, etc. and thought this might be a good time to invest in some bullion. I know a few things about this like: buy at as close to spot as possible; if buying coins, which I doubt I'll do, buy known coins at just above spot like AE's, Maples, and Kugerands. I also like the idea of holding something of value in my hands so bullion seems to be the best option. Maybe all the recent infomercials got my interest, but with all the hype I know there will be sharks in the water looking for virgin meat, so I would greatly appreciate any guideance on who I should be looking to buy from and who to stay away from and thingelse you good people are willing to share. Thanks
