Gold & Silver Coin Bullion News

While obsolete gold coins are primarily collected for their numismatic value, gold bullion coins today derive their value from the metal (gold) content - and as such are viewed by some investors as a "hedge" against inflation or a store of value. South Africa introduced the Krugerrand in 1967 to cater to this market; this was the reason for its convenient and memorable gold content�exactly one troy ounce. It was the first modern, low premium (i.e. priced only slightly above the bullion value of the gold) bullion gold coin. Bullion coins are also produced in fractions of an ounce � typically half ounce, quarter ounce, and one-tenth ounce. Bullion coins do not carry a meaningful face value, as their value is mainly dictated by their troy weight and the current market price of the precious metal. (If a face value is minted on the coin, it is done for legal or other reasons and it is nearly always significantly less than the actual value of the coin.) Gold has an international currency code of XAU under ISO 4217.

1917 U.S. Legal $1 notes: These notes are a continuation of the act of 1863 that provided for a paper currency issue by the United States government during the Civil War. Though not specifically redeemable in specie these notes carry text stating that they are acceptable at par by the government as payment. The early 20th century was a time of reflection on the past by Americans as evidenced by the celebrations of Columbus in 1893, Jamestown in 1907 and Plymouth in 1920. This note's engraving of the landing of Columbus is therefore unsurprising. These popular notes are generally worth between $40 and $150 depending on condition. Superlative examples are of course worth more.
