[QUOTE="rainwalkers, post: 46604, member: 462"]Hallo all, I have been lurking around here for awhile now and thought is is time to post my question. I am starting to collecting gold coins, mostly new bullions, and the different motive they have. I know that the mintage is important for those collecting. I am torn between the different sizes that you can buy. I love the 1 oz. coins but they get a bit expencive if you want to colelct alot of coins. It seems that the 1/2 oz. coins have the least mintage of all the different sizes. I know that the premium over gold for the smaller coins is more but does the mintage off set this(being rarer)? would you collect the smaller coins (1/2 oz. in particular)?Is there even a collectors market for the 1/2 oz? Here are the rule I would like to follow (if possible ;) 1. collect only gold coins with the gold content stamped on the coins. 2. Collect one coin from each country 3. expand the collection to the different motive in each country (motives I like) 4. grabing a few coins that are also the same size but do not have gold content stamped on them. Many thanks[/QUOTE]
