<p>[QUOTE=&quot;claw, post: 120674, member: 3699&quot;]If i were you,i would save that $400-500 till you have about $1000-$1500 saved up.</p><p>Buy some of the older series. Coronet $2.5 &amp; $5,Indian head $2.5,$5,$10,St.Gaudens double Eagles.</p><p>Or better yet the Classic Head series 1934-1938 $2.5 or $5.</p><p><br /></p><p>But first and foremost REASEARCH ALL OF THE ABOVE.You must know what you are about to get into.</p><p>For these kind of coins,buy them slabbed. (PCGS or NGC)</p><p>The higher the grade, the more potential for future profits.</p><p>You can get some nice &quot;saints&quot; ($20 double Eagles) in&nbsp; 64 or 65 grade for about $900-2000.</p><p>The classic head series Au coins run about $900-$1700( not including the D or C mint ,these run in the price range of $3000-$5000 in au)Uncurculated coins start at $3000 for the common dates.!!</p><p>The coronet and Indian Head series&nbsp; prices for MS62 and up are around $600+</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I would&#039;nt buy anything under ms62 in all of the above excluding the Classic Head.</p><p>Then again, the $3 princess IMHO is a good buy(pretty rare or hard to come buy)but expect to pay upwards of $3000.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you save your money,and buy 64&#039;s and 65&#039;s ,you will have fewer coins but much nicer ones..</p><p><br /></p><p>Then again, if this is not your ticket, and you just want gold, buy bullion.</p><p>Bullion coins only appreciate when gold goes up or down</p><p>Older series have a numismatic value along with gold value in their favor.</p><p>There are some rare instances where the modern gold eagles caryy a hefty price.( ask RickieB)</p><p><br /></p><p>You would be better off in the long run purchasing the older series in higher graded (ms-63-ms65)SLABBS</p><p>But remember, you must put these away for a minimum of 4-5 years.</p><p><br /></p><p>The series I&#039;m trying to complete ( the Classic Head) have almost doubled in three years.And I expect them to keep moving up.</p><p><br /></p><p>Lastly, you must research and buy what you like.( gold is much harder to grade and harder to tell if they have been cleaned, so stick with PCGS &amp; Ngc certified coins)</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps!!!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>CLAW[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
