www.9999gold.co.uk Gold price will be at $15000 per ounce soon. == Many holders of gold store it in form of bullion coins or bars as a hedge against inflation or other economic disruptions. However, some economists do not believe gold serves as a hedge against inflation or currency depreciation.[10] The ISO 4217 currency code of gold is XAU. Modern bullion coins for investment or collector purposes do not require good mechanical wear properties; they are typically fine gold at 24k, although the American Gold Eagle, the British gold sovereign, and the South African Krugerrand continue to be minted in 22k metal in historical tradition. The special issue Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin contains the highest purity gold of any bullion coin, at 99.999% or .99999 finess, while the popular issue Canadian Gold Maple Leaf coin has a purity of 99.99%. Several other 99.99% pure gold coins are available. The Australian Gold Kangaroos was first coined in 1986 as the Australian Gold Nugget. Its kangaroo theme appeared in 1989. In addition, there are several coins of the Australian Lunar Calendar series, and the Austrian Philharmonic. In 2006, the United States Mint began production of the American Buffalo gold bullion coin with a purity of 9999%.

I am planning to buy a 24 karat gold coin from bullion direct. This is the first time i am buying a gold coin. I am seeing both Austrian Philharmonic and Canadian Maple as 24 karat, but former is cheaper that later. Do anybody know the reason? Both are 1 oz and same weight & quality. Can i buy Austrian than Canadian?

I was recently looking at currency items on Ebay, and I came across a 1999 $25 dollar Proof Gold coin that was for sale, and noticed it had a "Buy It Now" price of $2,355 dollars. I am fairly new to collecting coins, so I was hoping someone could please possibly help me out with a question I had about that coin. Is this coin a "very rare" coin? Is it because it's been graded by chance? Or is it a rare coin as far as the year? I have searched all over the web trying to find this out, and realized several sites that deal in gold coins had several $25.00 gold coins for sell, but the 1999 coin wasn't available in their lists, they had surrounding years, but skipped 1999. Is this coin a "very rare" coin? I would greatly appreciate your help & response to this, It's driving me crazy trying to find out an honest response by searching the web, It interest me because i believe i may also have this coin in a collection i have in storage, but mine has not been graded. Does having the coin graded greatly increase the value as well? Again, I would really appreciate any help on this, and look forward to your response. I Would Appreciate An Urgent Honest Response! The Link To The Coin On Ebay is - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=350062492480.

Looking at the price of gold today, you might think that because it is ten times as expensive as it was in the 1970's, it has reached a peak and is now expensive. However there is a problem with this view. The £Pound or $Dollar can not buy what they did 30 years ago. Other methods of measurement show that Gold is in fact far cheaper than it has been for decades and that it is so undervalued relative to paper money, such as the $ and £, that the price of gold is ready to soar higher than ever.

I have the opportunity to buy a 1-oz. Krugerrand gold coin for $814.90. Do you think that this is a fair price? If not, what would be a fair price for this coin?
Thanks.
