It is customary to say that a capital investment in precious metals, especially in gold and silver, is a business for years, always profitable. Is it really worth investing in gold broth coins and their silver counterparts? And if so, what should be given special attention before this type of investment begins? In this article we will try to introduce the reader to what broth coins really are, as well as suggest where to buy them with the highest profit.

Bullion coins - historical features and present affairs

The name of the bouillon coin comes from French and refers to bouillonism, i.e. identification of wealth with the accumulation of precious metals, especially gold and silver, by nation states. There is still a lot of truth from the old days, because gold is still called "money for difficult times". When the financial markets lose value from time to time, gold is a safety valve, because it helps to protect oneself from falls. Therefore, having gold physically is a tangible safety in the long term.

Value of bouillon coins

Bullion coins de facto reflect the market prices of the raw material from which they were made. This means that they do not have the declared minimum value and most often the nominal value. Instead, the bullion content is given (usually from a standard and basic unit of 1 ounce (approx. 31.10g) to 1/10 ounce). Their circulation is usually not limited, as in the case of collector coins and commemorative coins, and simply depends on demand. Coin prices are not fixed and their value increases with gold prices on the market. This is very often linked to the US dollar. The weaker the dollar, the stronger and more expensive the gold. Therefore, in addition to a long-term investment, it is also a stable capital security.

Where can I buy broth coins?

Until recently, one of the main places for this type of transaction was Allegro, but at the moment it is no longer possible to do so. In addition to the current ban, this entailed a risk of uncertainty about the seller's credibility. Therefore, in order to make the purchase, it will be safest to go to the mints, i.e. private companies engaged in such activity. They have all the necessary certificates and permits to sell precious metals.

Which broth coins are the best to invest in?

If we are not collectors and keen numismatics, and coins are to bring us profit, instead of aesthetic value, it will be best to invest in those that have enjoyed the greatest recognition for years. The South African Krugerrands, the Austrian "Vienna Philharmonic" and the "American Eagles" from the USA are certainly among them. Our Polish "Orzeł Bielik" is also quite popular.

Bullion coins - i.e. profit and security

To sum up, the purpose of possessing gold and silver broth coins is to earn both on the increase in the price of gold, but also to secure the property for uncertain times. This is a proven investment in which it is best to have a high capital to start, but also without it you can cope and earn a decent income.
