Gold Coins Vs. Gold Bars; Which is BETTER?

Gold Coins or Gold Bars? Is one better over another and why? In this video we explore which might be best for you.
I stack silver and gold to hedge against our debt-fueled, fiat currency-based economy that I am convinced is in deep trouble. Consider stacking silver and gold yourself to help you build and preserve wealth. And thank you for watching Campbell’s Coins!

    As someone who worked with refiners, I always looked at all precious metals at their scrap value.. when everything goes to hell in a basket, I don't feel that anyone will care whether your one ounce of gold is considered to be a collector piece verses just one plain ounce of gold. The truth is, gold is gold, it's an element on the chart, there is no finer 24k gold over other 24k gold. Remember, gold is gold, buy it at the best price, not on collectibility.

    @@CampbellsCoins I respect your opinion. There's nothing wrong with collecting gold or silver coins for investment. I agree it's another way to diversify your assets. I suppose my opinion stems from dealing with refiners over the years who asseyed the precious metal scrap that I sent them. I do know this however, with the gold and silver coins that are in the safe, if in the event of a fire where the heat was such they all melted down into one lump...I could send that lump to the refiner who would pay me the market value of the melted gold or silver coins, not the collectability, why? Because gold is gold and silver is silver and that's all that I have. Just my opinion only.

    Everything has already gone to hell. Sure it can get worse. The thing is, value = value. There will *always* be higher demand for rare things than common things, even if we all go full Mad Max. Since gold has no practical use in a SHTF scenario, it is purely a matter of perceived value. If i am trading you gold for 'hydro' in our Mad Max future, I will give you more for a rare form than for a common form.

    I switched to the Britannia in both Gold and Silver versions. The security features are top quality and the retail prices are the lowest of all popular bullion coins, sometimes just as affordable as bars. The 100 gram Swiss bars shown here are choice. I'd gladly trade in Silver towards something like that, if and when the ration tightens up. It's a good way for a stacker to get into a bigger Gold bar.

    my comment on the silver version of this topic I mentioned I like to buy 10oz silver bars . But from the gold stand point I buy strictly gold coins usually Buffalo’s , eagles maples and krugerrands . I do have a few other coins but mostly those mentioned above . As far as bars I only have a few small fractional 5gram 10 gram bars but usually I stay away from gold bars . Even though I’m saving up for a 10oz Johnson Matthey pressed bar that my LCS is holding on for me . But that 10oz bar savings usually gets dipped into for 1oz gold coins on the dip of the spot market. Great topic thanks for the video great job .

    hands down, the coins are better if you are moving large amounts on money between countries legally. when you go threw the borders the law states that you only have to declare the face value of the coins/ currency that you hold. so a coin wait in gold may be 2 grand so say 5 1oz gold bars about 10k is the limit when moving threw countries, the Gold coins you can carry a few of them when the 1 oz face value of the gold coin is 5 bucks. pretty funny system.

    Couple corrections: 1. More coins (not volume but individual SKUs) are produced by private Mints than government Mints.

Coin premium is higher than bar premium due to the fact that there is a royalty paid to the government or issuing bank of coins.

    What you like is what you like. If I don't buy coins, I kind of prefer cool looking rounds. On my desk right now, I have a silver eagle, a 1 ounce bullet shaped silver thingy, and a 2 ounce silver themed round (not a coin). These are my silver toys. I also have a 20 ounce tube I handle because - why not? I never plan to sell it anyway, and if I get so desperate that I have to , I'm effed anyway, so who cares about the 20% I lost by diving into it a la Scrooge McDuck?

    It depends on your objective and the price to spot you can get. Are you a collector , store of value, trader, monetary reset prepper? I like to keep 10% of my net worth in gold/silver and never sell. Bars at 2-4% above spot is fine. No need for 15%+ premium for coins. Value of coin gets inflated away and if dollar fails, 1 oz coin isn't going to be worth anymore than 1 oz bar , with respect to premium paid.

I’m all about the coins now, with the only exception being a 1 oz. Engelhard platinum bar I recently purchased. I definitely prefer coins over bars for all of the reasons you listed, with special emphasis on the IRS reason you discussed. Lol.

Like I said to Ocean, personally I think people would be better off with coins over bars, but when one takes such a stance, some tend to get butthurt. Those Alphabet bois can f themselves. Question for ya. I know you got that Englehard plat-pussy bar, but will you continue with the bars for platinum or switch to coins like the other metals? Premiums on plat are slightly higher than the gold counterparts.

Much more solid than stocks alone.

Right now debating paying off the mortgage for security, or investing in precious metals. Retirement planning is harder than I thought, with many pitfalls. My parents always taught me you throw everything into property, land and anything physical. My only worry is choosing someone reputable to deal with, to avoid the scams, also learning that it is best to not buy to high over the spot price, for resale? Although a lot of the nicer pieces are higher in price.

    There is usually a premium on minted coins.. it’s my opinion the one ounce is one ounce. So unless you have aspirations of numismatic value/ collectible value which is actually quite rare. Not to mention the fact that in these times of uncertainty minted coins of any nation may not ever be worth more then the price of the bullion. This is what makes a collectible coin either and extremely low production or a minting error where a few get released from the mint.. that’s pretty much it a coin that is neither rare or struck with error will not gain in value other then the price of the metal
