Precious metals are a safe-haven investment, holding physical precious metals offsets counter-party risk

NORWALK, Conn. - Feb. 13, 2023 - PRLog -- Precious metals are a safe-haven investment when the stock market and other investments are in a down cycle. Many financial advisors recommend holding at least 10% of your retirement portfolio in a stable and trusted investment like precious metals.

Sovereign governments around the world issue coins minted from precious metals. These coins are primarily intended for investors of silver and gold bullion.

Holding precious metals as part of your portfolio acts as a stable hedge against a recession, or worse. Historically, gold and silver have held their buying power through previous recessions and periods of high inflation.

This year is the 37th year that the American Eagle coin series has been available from the US Mint. These coins have been minted annually since 1986.

The 2023 1 oz Gold American Eagle is the premier bullion coin from the US Mint and it has been minted for 37 years.

The design of the 2023 coin's are based on the Type-2 design that was introduced previously.

The American Gold Eagle series is also available in three standard fractional sizes that include 1/2 oz gold eagle, 1/4 oz Gold Eagle and the 1/10 oz Gold Eagle. Fractional gold coins are also a popular item that is often included in preps in the event of a barter situation.

The Krugerrand is the original bullion coin that was created in 1967 by the South African government as a way to encourage investment in government backed gold bullion.

For 2023, the Krugerrand series is issued in both silver and gold 1 oz coins.

The iconic design of these coins has remained the same for more than 50 years.

The Krugerrand gold coin is also available in fractional sizes of 1/10 oz, 1/4 oz and 1/2 oz.

There are numerous additional countries that issue coins that are denominated in their local currency. Most of these qualify for inclusion in a precious metals IRA.

The Australia Kangaroo series from the Perth Mint, the Britannia Series from the Royal Mint and the Philharmonic series from the Austrian Mint are just some of the coins available for investors to buy from online bullion dealers.

Premiums on 2023 government bullion coins vary considerably based on supply and demand. Precious metals are a commodity and dealer markups can fluctuate radically.
