Privacy
Clients are not required to provide a Social Security number when they sell certain coins including European gold coins.*According to the Social Security Administration, identity theft is one of the fastest growing crimes. Clients are not required to provide a Social Security Number when they sell certain coins including the European gold coins. People are advised to be careful about sharing their social security number with others. You should consult with your tax advisor regarding the proper reporting and taxability for all coins, precious metals, and rare currency.
Liquidity
The European gold coins we offer typically rangein weight from just under 1/5 of an ounce of gold to almost a quarter of an
ounce. Your Account Executive will be able to give you more specifics about any coin you acquire.
Given their relatively small size when compared to one ounce gold coins, these coins provide greater divisibility when liquidating. Further, the European gold coins are internationally recognized and can be traded generally with relative ease.
Potential Protection Against Recall
In 1933, the United States government, by Executive Order, prohibited the private ownership of gold bars and coins. The Executive Order that banned private ownership of gold included several exceptions. One exception allowed people to own "gold coins having a recognized special value to collectors of rare and unusual coins...." During the 41 years that Americans were generally prohibited from owning gold, the Treasury Department identified different gold coins which it considered to be of recognized value to collectors of rare and unusual coins. These included all foreign gold coins minted from 1934 through 1959. Resources such as the Standard Catalog of World Coins also recognize that many European gold coins have a value above their bullion content.
Given the reasons above and the fact that these coins generally move up and down with the spot price of gold, it is easy to see why many people choose to acquire the European gold coins.
