The Classic Gold Coin Experts Recommend Owning

If you’re a longtime client, you may remember us sending a very consistent message before 2020. During the quiet period of 2017-2019, we predicted that 1) there would eventually be a surge in bullion demand and 2) this surge would benefit vintage U.S. gold coin values.

More specifically, we felt that premiums would expand for pre-1933 U.S. gold coins like $20 Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles. While we don’t claim to have a crystal ball, this prediction very much came to fruition. An enormous wave of new investors has entered the bullion space and, not surprisingly, many have found their way to classic American gold coins.
 
With such intense demand for U.S. gold, finding bargains has been more of a challenge than ever. Perhaps one of the most popular gold coins in American history, the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle is a quintessential coin celebrated for its beautiful design and equally fascinating history. When the $20 “Saint” first debuted in 1907, it received tremendous praise from the general public. Art critics and newspaper editorialists lauded the coin’s stunning design.

The $20 Saint is one of the few high-grade coins within the average collector’s budget.

However, now that the gold spot price is hovering close to 2020's all-time highs and should continue to climb, the cost to own graded Saint-Gaudens gold will likely follow suit.

When the spot price of gold becomes volatile, classic coin premiums tend to climb quickly—and dramatically—but for now, savvy buyers can pick up pre-1933 gold for relatively low premiums.

There are times when even common date graded numismatic gold, like the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, have sold for multiples of the gold price, and that’s their real value proposition: gold numismatic coins can’t be worth less than bullion since they hold their melt value, and they can also go up a lot faster than bullion.
