Coins from the U.S. Mint

Gold and silver are great investments, and bullion coins are an excellent way to add precious metals to your portfolio. They tend not to follow normal market forces, even running counter to it at times, and add stability to a group of investments.

American Silver, Gold and Platinum Eagles are guaranteed by the U.S. Government to be official investment grade bullion.
