What Should I Purchase?
Bullion not only is available as coins, but also as ingots and bars. Typically ingots and bars are a bulk way to invest. When investing in bullion coins you should be aware that each bullion coin may have a different fineness (metal purity content) depending on which country minted them. Each bullion coin also has it's own weight. Make sure you compare fineness and weight before your purchase. Some foreign goverments may mint bullion coins with low standards in fineness or weight. Bullion coins also have a "grade" value, however the coin's metal melt value is the most important factor in determining overall it's value.
