As some of the replys suggest there are two sides to every situation, and you must consider your motives, tolerance for risk, and long term/short term investment goals. Having invested in some World Gold coins in the past introduced me to many wonderful and beautiful coins, however, like any commodity you must find a buyer for your goods. The lesson I learned from that was that when in Rome do what the Romans do! If your collection travels carry you into pools of World Gold Coin Traders then by all means do so..if not, you must be willing to accept the risk of holding on to those coins. The US Gold coins (modern eagles) are really considered bullion, however, down the road in years to come the numismatic value of the lower mintage coins may be a potential. I am partial to US Coins because I live in the US and for the most part they are liquid as is any other gold coin for its bullion value. Be really sure of what you want to do and then set your goals. For me putting together the entire uncirculated and proof series of AGE's for my young son to have when he becomes a man 15 years down the road is purely based on speculation. The way our country is going into debt..hell, they will be worth a fortune in 15 years hahahahahah..again my narrow opinion. Good luck and remember that there is always something available to buy..be selective![/QUOTE]
