How To Buy American Eagle Gold Coins

By Matthew Chang

First, all American Eagle gold coins are 22 karat gold. The reason that you don't get 24 karats is a small amount of other metal needs to be added to keep the coins hard. The Gold for the American Eagle is also mined in the United States.

When buying American Eagle gold coins, you have 4 options. They are: 1/10 ounce, 1/4 ounce, 1/2 ounce and 1 ounce. Smaller weights generally cost less, but there are other factors.

What comes into play are the two kinds of Eagle gold coins. They are generally -- proof and bullion.

American Eagle gold bullion coins are readily available for purchase. These are the coins use for sound investment. They are prized for their guaranteed gold content, as well their beauty. The coins are recognized by dealers and markets around the world. Often used as an investment, they can be bought, sold and traded with ease. Many add them to their retirement portfolio, to be used as a tax free investment.

The American Eagle gold proof coins are what the collectors gravitate to. They are also guaranteed for gold content, and come in the same sizes, but that's where things change. A different process is utilized in the manufacturing process and that gives these gold coins a different look. Due to added dyes and more hammering when they're made, their background appearance is more reflective, or 'glassy,' while their foreground image has a brushed, frosty look. What this causes is more contrast between the fore and background, creating a beautiful very eye appealing coin.

When shopping for American Eagle gold coins, it is important to buy from reputable sources. One way to make sure you are getting a good price is to look at auctions. When buyers set the pricing, you can be sure that the market is setting the price, not the vendor.
