[QUOTE="tsk, post: 203264, member: 5858"]It depends on what you hope to accomplish here. Are you just buying for pure bullion value? Or do you want some coin collectibility? If you're going for pure bullion, go with the Krugerrands. They sell for a few bucks over spot. And of course the full ounce will have the lowest premium. If you want more of a modern coin than pure bullion, I'd say to go with the Gold Eagle. I'd opt for the AGE vs the Maple Leaf personally. There are also plenty of other options for accumulating gold. Personally, I like the older European gold coins (by older I mean 1800's and 1900's). You can get many of these for a small premium over spot. I also would suggest getting some silver too. I've heard it recommended that you get 50 ounces of silver to every ounce of gold. I'd recommend taking a peek over at APMEX (.com) and look at their gold offering. They've got about the best prices I've seen, although you'll have to pay by check or money order to get the best pricing.[/QUOTE]
