Gold has long been used as a way of paying for goods and services as real money for thousands of years. Gold is a real, physical, tangible asset that has stood the test of time more than any other form of money and store of wealth. Gold is accepted as payment in most countries worldwide and it is easy to sell locally if the need arises. Gold is in higher demand today than it has ever been.
Gold coins and bars are one of the most popular physical investments. Gold provides a safe-haven during times when traditional investments are heading into a downward cycle. The consistent gains in gold prices in recent months are a growing signal that the global economy is changing.
The most popular options when it comes to gold are buying coins or bars. These are both available from a wide variety of mints from around the world. Both bars and coins each capture the intrinsic value of the gold, but have other characteristics that make them unique from each other.
Gold Coins offer the security and assurance of being minted by a government authority. Having the backing of a government authority helps provide investors with additional trust that the investment is genuine and easy to verify. Gold coins are legal-tender currency and are thus protected by the same laws and statutes that protect other forms of currency against counterfeiting.
Privately minted gold bars have lower premiums that coins and are often a leading choice for investors. Bars are also available in a large assortment of sizes across virtually all price points.

Gold bars are the simplest and easiest physical investment one can buy. Most are issued by private mints and are regularly available for purchase from many online bullion dealers. For many investors, the 1 oz gold bar is a very popular choice due to the wide availability and low premium per ounce over the daily spot price. They are almost always minted from .9999 fine gold, though some may be in lower purities such as .999 or others.
Based on spot gold price each 1 oz bar is worth $1942.80. Having a stack of gold bars is a way to have some extra financial security at home that can be easily and discretely stashed away.
Fractional gold bars are the most popular and offer versatility and flexibility. Premiums for fractional gold bars are slightly higher and gradually increase as the sizes get smaller.
