How to Start Investing in Silver Coins

When most people think of “investments,” they think of stock certificates, paper currency, bank statements, real estate, and the like, but hardly anyone thinks of silver coins. Nevertheless, precious metals, in the form of bullion coins, make a great addition to any investment portfolio. The price of silver has more than doubled in the last decade alone, and expert economists predict that the price could double again in the following decades. Precious metals increase in value over time unlike paper currency, which is losing value over time due to inflation.

Silver bullion coins are available from authorized coin sellers. It takes no special privileges to purchase silver in the form of coins, and it can help to diversify your portfolio and add security to your wealth. As bad as inflation is now, it could become even worse in the future. In the event of such an economic disaster, you will want to have a sturdy, reliable form of money, such as solid silver coins.

American Silver Eagle coins contain at least one troy ounce of 99.9% pure silver, and this silver content alone makes the coins highly valuable. You must factor in that the coins are collectibles and have collectors’ value. You can imagine that these coins that were originally struck with a face value of one dollar are now worth much more money than that. And indeed, they are. Current silver prices put Silver Eagle coins at more than twenty times their original value.

This means that if you would have bought American Silver Eagle coins when they were first minted in 1986 and kept them until now, you would have multiplied their worth several times over. This growth in value is not at all how your average money in the bank functions. Your plain old U.S. currency slowly loses purchasing power year after year due to inflation. Frustrating as that may be, luckily you can hedge against inflation by locking your wealth into precious metals.
