The 1 oz American Gold Buffalo was introduced in 2006, the first time the U.S. Mint produced a pure (.9999) 24 karat gold coin for the public. That year, the U.S. Mint produced and sold over 300,000 of these coins.
The design of the American Gold Buffalo is a modified version of James Earle Fraser’s Indian Head (Buffalo) nickel, first issued in 1913. The obverse design features a Native American chief while the reverse features an American bison standing atop a mound of dirt. The bison was modeled after “Black Diamond,” a popular attraction for many years in the New York Zoological Gardens in the early part of the 20th century.
Originally issued in sealed plastic sheets of 20, the American Gold Buffalo was created in order to compete with foreign 24 karat gold bullion coins such as the Canadian Gold Maple.

Long considered the most inexpensive way to buy silver is to purchase pre-1964 U.S. dimes, quarters, and half dollars. Often referred to as “junk silver,” all that means is there is no collector or numismatic value associated with these coins. However, they are anything but junk! The alloy of these coins consists of 90% silver and 10% copper. Every $1,000 face value of any combination of these coins contains 715 oz of pure silver. Aside from the low premiums these coins traditionally carry they have the added advantage of smaller units, meaning greater divisibility and portability.
Packaged in canvas bags in quantities of $500 face value, each bag weighs approximately 27 pounds. Depending upon availability, you can choose your denomination in $500 face increments.
The 90% silver bags come in four versions: U.S. half dollars, U.S. quarters, U.S. dimes, and a mixed bag. Each $1,0000 face value bag weighs approximately 800 troy ounces (54 pounds) and contains approximately 715 ounces of pure silver (we will sell you any size bag that you want).
The actual and true value of these coins derives from the amount of silver they contain, which means their value is significantly higher than they once were. For example, pre-1964 coins equaling one dollar in face value can be worth more than 20x their face value today.

The U.S. $1 Morgan dollar is a beautiful coin for those with an appreciation for bullion and for history. For an oftentimes low premium, investors can enjoy holding this piece of history in their silver collection.
Carson City Morgan Dollars are among the rarest versions of this coin. Struck between 1878 and 1893, they remain an attainable short set for collectors. Premiums on Carson City Morgan Dollars remain strong. Recently, an 1882 CC Morgan dollar in its original black plastic GSA case and graded MS-62 by NGC sold for $170, while a VF of this common CC without a GSA holder sold for $120 dollars.
Rarer GSA Morgan Dollars, like the 1879-CC and the 1889-CC dollars, still are not found in large quantities. An entry-level Mint State 1879-CC Morgan Dollar costs upwards of $6,000, while solid VF examples are approaching $300.
From 1887 to 1904, Morgan Silver dollars were issued by mints in Philadelphia, San Francisco, New Orleans, and Carson City. Morgan dies were destroyed when production ended. Nonetheless, they were struck once more for a short time during 1921 at Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Denver mints for a short time before being replaced by post-World War 1 Peace Dollars.
In the 1960s, a reserve of Morgan Dollars was discovered in US Treasury vaults. The coins were sold in the 1970s, culminating in the final sale of more than 200,000 uncirculated Morgans in 1980.
The worth of a Morgan Silver dollar is based on its date, mint mark, and condition. Examples struck during the late 1870s and early 1880s are considered desirable.

The South African Gold Krugerrand was introduced in 1967 as a vehicle for private gold ownership and is considered the first modern gold bullion coin. Produced by the South African Mint, this coin proved popular and by 1980 accounted for 90% of the global gold coin market.

As with the other producers of bullion products, the 1 oz version represents the most economical way to purchase. The Krugerrand does not bear a currency denomination as the value is simply the value of its gold content.
The Gold Krugerrand has been the inspiration for many other gold-producing nations minting their own bullion coins, such as the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf in 1979, the Australian Nugget in 1981 (which today is known as the Australian Kangaroo), the American Gold Eagle in 1986, and the British Britannia Coin.
The Krugerrand is made of a gold alloy that is 91.67% (22 karats) and that contains copper (also used in English gold sovereigns) to make it handle wear better. The copper is what gives the Krugerrand its distinctive orange appearance in contrast to other gold bullion coins.

Several Chinese mints produce the Chinese Gold Panda including mints in Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Shenyang. Unlike coins made by US mints, which carry mintmarks so as to determine their origin, Chinese mints usually employ no such mintmarks. There are in some years minor variations in the coin designs—size of the date, style of the temple—to allow one to decipher mint origin.
Chinese gold pandas are legal tender in the People’s Republic of China. The Chinese Gold Panda comes in face value denominations of 500, 200, 100, 50, and 24 Yuan; from 1982 to 2000, their originals denominations of 100, 50, 25 and 10 Yuan (with 5 Yuan added in 1983) were produced.

This coin has two unique features: a “two-tone” frosted design effect as well as an individual hard plastic encapsulation of each coin. These features were unusually for a standard bullion coin and gave the Nugget a unique market niche.
In 1986, the Gold Kangaroo (or Gold Nugget) series was introduced by the Gold Corporation, a company owned by the government of Western Australia. Until 1989 the coin featured Australian gold nuggets.

The French 20 Franc was minted from 1899 to 1914. A legal tender coin, the 20 Franc is a great choice for bullion investors looking for historic gold coins at low premiums. The 20 Franc is also a great “survival coin,” that is, a fractional gold coin. Unlike national government fractionals, the 20 Franc is available for a low-premium.
This particular coin contains nearly a fifth of an ounce of pure gold (.1867) and is available in almost Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
Gold Swiss 20 Franc
The obverse of the Swiss 20 Franc gold coin features a bust of Vreneli, the charming “Swiss Miss” of Swiss Lore. Above her head are the words “HELVETIA”, which is why this coin is also referred to as a Helvetia.
The coin’s reverse features a Swiss shield over a background of an oak branch tied with ribbons. The denomination (20 FR) and the date appear on the reverse.
All Vreneli Swiss 20 Francs were minted in the country’s lone mint facility located in Bern and are composed of 90% gold. The Swiss 20 Franc gold coins are distinguished with a small cross in the center of the Swiss cross on the reverse.

The 1 oz Canadian Platinum Maple was first released in 1988. The obverse features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II at age 79, while the reverse features one of Canada’s most popular symbols, the maple leaf. This is among the most recognizable bullion coins you can purchase.
This coin was issued by the Royal Canadian Mint between 1988 and 2002 in in 1/20 oz, 1/15 oz (in 1994 only), 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz, 1/2 oz, and 1 oz denominations. It was reintroduced in 2009 only in its 1 oz form.
All of the coins were marked as containing .9995 pure platinum. The coins are legal tender in Canada, though the face value of these coins, as is so often the case with bullion coins, do not reflect the true value. Platinum Maple Leafs come in tubes from the Royal Canadian Mint.
The platinum Maple Leaf carries the same obverse and reverse designs as the Canadian Gold and Silver Maple Leaf coins.
The obverse, which features a bust of Queen Elizabeth II, changed designs in 1990 to feature an older portrait of the Queen. In both versions, her name appears at the top with the denomination of the coin and the date of issue beneath the bust.

The reverse design by Miley Busiek features a male eagle flying above a nest containing a female eagle and her hatchlings.
The term “proof” refers to a specialized minting process that begins by manually feeding burnished coin blanks into presses fitted with special dies. Each coin is struck multiple times so the softly frosted, yet detailed images seem to float above a mirror-like field. After scrutiny by white gloved inspectors, each American Eagle Proof Coin is placed in a protective plastic capsule and mounted in a handsome satin-lined velvet presentation case.
An official Certificate of Authenticity accompanies each coin. The American Eagle Platinum and Silver Proof Coins are only available in the 1 oz size.
American Gold Eagle Proof coins are eligible for Precious Metals IRAs, which United Coin & Precious Metals can help facilitate.

Canada’s Royal Canadian Mint released six 99.99% pure, 1 oz silver bullion coins over a three year period, celebrating Canada’s natural wildlife.
These coins, known as the Canadian Wildlife Silver Bullion Coins, feature iconic reverse imagery dedicated to the abundant wildlife of Canada.
The Canadian Wildlife coins are designed for investors and are minted to the professional standards investors and collectors expect from the Royal Canadian Mint products, including the atypical .9999 fine silver composition. Due to the low mintage of 1,000,000 coins per design, some consider the Canadian Wildlife Series a semi-numismatic coin. Many collectors are interested in owning them.
The coins, year-by-year:
The obverse of all coins in this series feature Queen Elizabeth II of England along with the inscriptions of ELIZABETH II, 5 DOLLARS, and the year. The face value of the Canadian Wildlife Series is five dollars, however, as a strike containing one ounce of .9999 fine silver, the real value is based on its content.
Reverse inscriptions on each coin are CANADA and 9999 FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR.
