Advantage of Owning Rare Gold Coins

Copyright (c) 2010 Rod Hoss

United States rare gold coins offer advantages for their buyers that are hard for any other asset to match. To first understand the advantages of rare gold coins, you have to understand what makes gold have a rarity that is sought after by collectors.

Rare gold coins consist of minted gold by the United States from 1795 to 1933. It was in 1795 that the mint in Philadelphia first starting minting gold to be used as currency. This practice ended in 1933.

What makes gold coins rare are twofold? The first reason is that the Federal Government has confiscated gold on three separate occasions. The first recall of gold came in 1830s when the issue was that the gold content of each coin did not match is face value. During the Civil War many US gold coins were melted down as the price of gold had more value in overseas markets. The last confiscation came in 1933 when President Franklin Roosevelt made it illegal to own gold as a private citizen and that all gold be turned over to the Treasury Department. The second aspect of rarity is simply the age of the coins which has led to lost coins and coins that are not in a mint enough condition to be attractive to collectors.

Advantages of Owning Rare Gold Coins

Over the long term rare coins or numismatic gold coins have outperformed gold bullion coins do to their added demand by collectors, plus their inherent gold content.

Gold is the one asset that has a tract record that goes back over 5,000 years. When there was no US dollar or Euro there was gold to use as a means of trade for goods and services. Rare gold coins still offer the same value do to their gold content.

One key aspect to buying rare gold coins is they are considered a private position in gold. There is no paper trail making rare coins a more financially private matter. The Federal Government still reserves the right to confiscate gold in private hands again. The one caveat to this is rare gold coins which have made them exempt from government confiscation.

For added diversification, gold including rare gold coins prices move up or down typically different then paper investment and other assets. What typically makes the stock market go down in value increases the value of gold coins?

One interesting aspect to rare gold coins that no other form of currency can state is that the exact rare coin you purchase was the exact same coin owned by the people living over a hundred years ago. Rare coins are a true piece of American history that were owned by the pioneers that made our county great.

A Rare Find $4.99 How does a rule-abiding, accomplished woman fall for a rebel college dropout? It's something rare-books curator Penelope Bigelow is still trying to figure out! Regardless of what logic she tries to use, the proof remains that when celebrity chef Nicholas Rheinhardt is around, her composure takes a vacation. With all the reunion festivities, it's hard to avoid him…especially since he needs her expertise in antiquities for an upcoming episode of his cable travel show. Too bad the past isn't what Penelope's focusing on when she's with Nick. There's more to him than his infamous reputation—and that intrigues her. Penelope isn't looking for perfection…even though Nick's coming very close!

The Rare Find $12.99 One of the nation's biggest music labels briefly signed Taylor Swift to a contract but let her go because she didn't seem worth more than $15,000 a year. At least four book publishers passed on the first Harry Potter novel rather than pay J. K. Rowling a $5,000 advance. And the same pattern happens in nearly every business. Anyone who recruits talent faces the same basic challenge, whether we work for a big company, a new start-up, a Hollywood studio, a hospital, or the Green Berets. We all wonder how to tell the really outstanding prospects from the ones who look great on paper but then fail on the job. Or, equally important, how to spot the ones who don't look so good on paper but might still deliver extraordinary performance. Over the past few decades, technology has made recruiting in all fields vastly more sophisticated. Gut instincts have yielded to benchmarks. If we want elaborate dossiers on candidates, we can gather facts (and video) by the gigabyte. And yet the results are just as spotty as they were in the age of the rotary phone. George Anders sought out the world's savviest talent judges to see what they do differently from the rest of us. He reveals how the U.S. Army finds soldiers with the character to be in Special Forces without asking them to fire a single bullet. He takes us to an elite basketball tournament in South Carolina, where the best scouts watch the game in a radically different way from the casual fan. He talks to researchers who are reinventing the process of hiring Fortune 500 CEOs. Drawing on the best advice of these and other talent masters, Anders reveals powerful ideas you can apply to your own hiring. For instance: Don't ignore "the jagged résumé" -people whose background appears to teeter on the edge between success and failure. Such people can do spectacular work in the right settings, where their strengths dramatically outweigh their flaws. Look extra hard for "talent that whispers"- the obscure, out-of-the- way candidates who most scouting systems overlook. Be careful with "talent that shouts" -the spectacular but brash candidates who might have trouble with loyalty, motivation, and team spirit. Each field that Anders explores has its own lingo, customs, and history. But the specific stories fit together into a bigger mosaic. In any field, there's an art to clearing away the clutter and focusing on what matters most. It's not necessarily hard, but it requires the courage to take a different approach in pursuit of the rare find.

But when Calliope Andrews hires him to build an addition onto her day care center, Wyatt can't help but notice she's a desirable woman, as warm and funny as his ex was cold and aloof. Calliope fell hard for Wyatt the first time he walked through the door of her family's home, and can't believe her sister let him get away. He's still the star of all her fantasies, and she's determined to prove to him she's nothing like his manipulative ex. Wyatt may be all business, but Calliope sees the way he looks at her when he's supposed to be working... It's not long before Wyatt and Calliope are keeping each other warm on cold December nights. But it's going to take a Christmas miracle for Wyatt to put his trust in love a second time. 28,000 words

Rare Pulp Fiction Poster - 1994 $1400 "This is a very rare original �Pulp Fiction� movie poster, sent out in advance and then pulled before distribution because of legal issues. This is one of the most collectible modern posters, known as the �Lucky Strikes� recalled poster. Miramax recalled the poster, according to reports, after R.J. Reynolds threatened to sue because the poster included the Lucky Strikes brand without permission. On this hard-to-find recalled poster, the Lucky Strikes name is visible on the carton of cigarettes and the gun is flipped down on the blanket. The studio reissued the poster with a generic cigarette carton and with the gun flipped up on the pillow. Please note: The wrinkles and tears seen in the poster are part of it's artwork and not indicative of damage. A typical quirky drama by Quentin Tarantino, �Pulp Fiction� starred Uma Thurman, featured on the poster, John Travolta and Samuel Jackson. Measures 27"" x 40"". Mint condition. Ships rolled in a tube."
