I live in Switzerland. Here the Helvetia 20 gold francs, or "Vreneli" as they are nicknamed with affection, are popular, as are the also plentiful French roosters. Compared to newer under 1 ounce gold rounds, they are cheaper. An advantage is that they are as small in diameter as common currency coins. If you have to bail out with gold by plane, you can mix your gold with your small change in your wallet so that the scanner staff of the airport security will not be alarmed as easily as when you would try to slip full 1 ounce gold coins of larger diameter trough.

I'm French and these little 20 Francs gold coins are the most popular, easy to buy and sell gold coins of all. The French 20 Francs gold coin comes in 5 different designs: Napoleon III tête nue (naked head), Napoleon III tête laurée (crowned with laurel), Genius (lucky angel), Marianne-Coq (rooster) and Ceres (Roman goddess) that you've presented.

I think you´re absolutely right here, collecting the small gold coins from the first European monetary union, also called the Latin European gold union, based on the French 20Fr gold coins. Many countries joined, like you said, a nice variety, and affordable. Other collectibles are of course the British Sovereigns, the German Marks and being Scandinavian, we had a good Scandinavian gold union here too, with gold coins of 8.06 grams of pure gold, so true quarter ounces, less variation but fine for gold stacking. Feels nice in your hand. Most affordable are the Danish 20 kroner, and half of that size, the 10 kroner. 90% pure.

Just keep in mind when you go to sell you will get less than spot. Some dealers wont touch them, just like sovereigns. I learned this lesson the hard way. But if you never intend to sell, best deals around.

Beside the French and Swiss 20 Franc coins there's also the Italian 20 Lire coin. As part of the latin monetary union they're exact same specs as 20 Franc, size, dimensions, everything. Also worth looking for. They do tend to have a slightly higher numismatic value but can still be found cheap. As well as Francs the Lire also exists in 10 Lire versions. Living in Europe I love vintage European coins. While it is true that usually dealers buy them slightly below spot they also sells not too far above spot for their size so they still have a nice small spread and thus being a very good choice in their size range. Another coin that also tends to have small spread is the Austrian 1 Ducat restrike. Also worth looking for. Very unique .986 alloy which have a very nice color - imho nicer than pure gold. Probably my favorite Frenc coin is the Angel coin - who doesn't fall in love with that legend. Another favorite is the Danish 10 and 20 kroner from 1908-1912. Probably the most detailed gold coins ever made. If you get a good clear strike it's amazing all those small details you can see with a loupe. Not many coins come close to that and vertainly not any modern coins I know of. They took their time to make details you need a magnifier to see!

Thank you!

Cool video, thanks. A similar type of coin also is the Franc Joseph coin which comes in two sizes, 3.49g and the 4x larger 13.96g and both are 98.6% gold. It was used as currency up to 1915. and after that Muenze Osterreich started making them as collectable/investment coins

I understand the dollar amount over spot per coin, but how do you calculate what it would be at the 1 troy oz level over spot? My LCS has melt + $18 and trying to figure out if that's a good deal or not?

Cheapest i can find is about $20 over spot on Ebay but most are charging about $40 it seems

So you simply misspoke -- but made me feel smarter for figure out what you meant to say 😀😁 I don't think the coin says how much gold is in it (next time put coin in holder so it is still), so without that I doubt I'll ever purchase one.

Gold gets a bad rap because it is money, not investments. No growth. Only breaks even.

SD and GS are noticeably cosmopolitan for Americans and are to be congratulated on their open-mindedness and sophistication. Most Americans are consciously or unconsciously insular in their thinking:'if it ain't American it ain't no good'.

Stephanie G lol thanks!!! I try to be open minded 😁🔥🐉

I called a local We Buy Gold here place today. And ask him if they had any Frank's or european gold. Oh, and the guy said yep, we do. I'll sell you all you want for 3% above spot. . That's without even walking in there talking to the guy or even try and negotiate.. So I think I'll probably just get away from that spot or maybe 1% over spot for your walk in there with about a grand and my Sigma tester

At 9:40 you mention it has been faked. As far as I know only very easy to spot fakes have been done (wrong dimensions or weight) or it'sa gold coin melted into an older gold coin.

$1500 for an ounce of gold. LOL. 2024, gold is $2,400. Of course, was $20 an ounce in 1920. How times change.
