Public Gold Gets Gold and Silver Coins to the Average Citizen Who Cannot Afford to Buy Bullion

Public Gold sells mint-fresh, brilliant uncirculated, "bullion" grade minted coins so that most of your money gets invested in real gold or silver - without paying a high "premium" for the artistic craftsmanship and beauty of newly minted collector grade, double-struck "proof" coins in fancy display cases. For the average investor, the best way to buy smaller quantities of gold or silver bullion is to buy cheap silver or gold coins at a price which is as close to the spot price of silver or gold bullion as possible.

The one-tenth ounce Gold American Eagle and one ounce Silver American Eagle bullion coins are the best way to acquire gold and silver coins at the lowest price and in the most convenient form. They are recognized and accepted world-wide, and easily traded for cash close to the current spot price (meltdown value) of the gold or silver metal they contain.

These are U.S. government-issued and government-guaranteed, mint-fresh, gem brilliant uncirculated (BU), silver and gold bullion coins for savings and investment purposes, acquired for their real gold or silver content at the lowest premium over the melt-down price of the pure silver or gold they contain.

Public Gold passes on the price savings from its large-volume buying power to its Members, who can purchase a specified number of American Eagle gold and silver coins at wholesale dealer cost with no mark-up. Few, if any, coin dealers can match this low price for mint-fresh, brilliant uncirculated Gold American Eagle and Silver American Eagle coins.

Non-members of Public Gold can purchase these mint-fresh, brilliant uncirculated American Eagle gold and American Eagle silver bullion coins at the regular Retail Price, which is lower than most retail coin dealers. Retail price is based on the current wholesale dealer cost plus $2.50 per one-ounce Silver Eagle coin, or wholesale dealer cost plus $10 per tenth-ounce Gold Eagle coin.

Selling price varies daily based on the current spot price of gold or silver bullion. Call Monday through Friday for current quotes (use the link below to visit the Public Gold site for contact information). Ask for both Member and Non-member prices, because an annual Membership could let you buy at the lowest possible price per coin if you plan to make several purchases over the next year, or want to buy a large quantity of coins at once. (Members can also EARN gold and silver coins by referring other Members.)

Shipping of coins is by U.S. insured registered mail from Cedar Hill, Texas, USA. Typical cost of shipping and handling to any USA address is lower than most coin dealers, starting at just $8.25 for 1 tenth-ounce gold coin, $15.95 for 10 gold coins, and $22.95 for 20 gold coins. Other coin dealers may have minimum S&H fees of $20 to $30.

From January 1, 2006 to January 1, 2007 the US dollar spot price of gold increased 22.5 percent, and the spot price of silver increased 44.3 percent over the year. Did you make any other investments that have performed as well as silver and gold?

After another week of declines in all world stock market indices, on January 28, 2008, the US dollar spot price of gold reached an all-time high of $927.40, up $16.40 in one day, and up from $644.10 a year ago. The spot price of silver rose to $16.73, up from $13.24 one year before.

From January 1 to January 31, 2008, the Nasdaq dropped 10%, which represents the worst January in the 37-year history of the exchange. The Dow declined by 4.6% - its worst January since 2000. And the S&P 500 index dropped by 6.9% - its worst January since 1990.

From the end of 1999 to early 2008, the S&P 500 has produced a total return of approximately zero. And after adjusting for the effects of inflation, the S&P has LOST more than 25% of its value over these last eight years.

More and more investors are losing faith in the ability of American stocks to produce positive gains on their invested dollars - or even to protect the value of their invested savings!

The Shrinking Paper Dollar

Since 1971 the U.S. dollar has lost about 80 percent of its purchasing power. In other words, a U.S. paper dollar earned and saved in 1971 would only buy about 20 cents worth of U.S. goods or services in 2006. Since 2006, the dollar has continued to decline at an even more rapid rate.

A person who was 25 years old in 1971 and expected he could retire comfortably with $100,000 at age 60 would now be shocked and disappointed to find that his $100,000 retirement fund in 2006 would only purchase the equivalent of $20,000 in 1971 dollars. If he had invested in dollar-denominated stocks, bonds, treasury bills, or annuities to produce an annual income of $50,000, he would find himself having to live on the 1971 equivalent of $10,000 per year in 2006.

From its peak in 2001 to 2006 the U.S. dollar lost about 31 percent of its foreign exchange value. In other words, in just those 5 years the U.S. dollar has dropped in value by 31 percent relative to other currencies, and in 2006 would buy 31 percent less foreign goods or commodities than it did in 2001.

In 2007 and early 2008 the US dollar dropped in value even further and faster, as the Federal Reserve continued to print billions of dollars of intrinsically worthless greenbacks to help bail out the large banks and Wall Street investment firms which incurred massive losses in sub-prime mortgages and risky deriviative securities based on those high-risk mortgages.

Every billion new paper dollars the Fed prints makes all the dollars previously earned, saved and invested by responsible citizens worth less. And as the world began to realize the increasing "worthlessness" of the sinking US dollar they turned to other more stable currencies, which further accelerated the devaluation of the US dollar.

Meanwhile, gold and silver rapidly rose in price relative to those declining dollars, as prudent investors sought to protect their wealth by moving from shrinking paper dollars to the only "real money" that holds its real value over time.

A greenback is like an I.O.U. from the US Government that only promises to pay back the bearer with another I.O.U. And what the holders of those I.O.U. notes are getting back has continually been worth less than whatever they traded for those notes in the years before.

How Inflation Is Stealing Your Savings

Don't be fooled by talk of "inflation" making the purchasing power of your dollars worth less. We tend to accept inflation as inevitable, as if the prices of goods and services just naturally go up over time. What is really happening is that the real value of your savings is going down because all paper currencies (known as "fiat" currencies) always go down in value over time.

This is because the ruling government of any country invariably spends more money than they collect through taxation. They then choose to print more paper money rather than tell the population that they are going to increase taxes and risk being turfed out of office in the next election. In non-democratic countries, kings and dictators throughout history have invariably gotten greedy and debased their currency to produce more money for their treasury.

Inflation is really caused by too many intrinsically worthless paper dollars being continually printed and put into circulation by the government - which the bankers at the Federal Reserve call "increasing the money supply". It really means "DECREASING the value of the money which was earned, saved, and invested by responsible citizens". It acts like a hidden tax which targets the people who saved and invested their money for the future, depleting their savings and robbing their retirement funds. Some who are less tolerant of this hidden taxation have referred to it as "stealing our savings".

Inflation really means devaluation of the dollar. When the dollar becomes worth less, the sellers of goods and services want more of them to compensate for the devaluation of the dollar, so the price of the same things becomes higher in terms of the devalued dollars. While "inflation" appears to be about prices going UP, what is really happening is that the value of the paper dollars are going DOWN - which decreases the purchasing power of all the dollars previously earned, saved, and invested.

The prices of commodities like oil, coffee, corn, wheat, silver and gold in terms of dollars also increase when the value of the dollar decreases. Again, it is not so much that the commodities like gold and silver are worth more, but that the dollar is worth less.

In times of inflating prices it is wiser to own gold and silver (which generally hold their real value over time) than to hold onto shrinking US dollar bills (which invariably keep losing value from month to month). Later, when it comes time to trade for food and fuel, you could purchase more by paying with gold or silver that have gone up in value than you would by paying with paper dollars that have gone down in value.

Can you see how "inflation" robs the responsible citizens of the value of their savings, investments, retirement savings, and pension funds?

Gold and silver have always been a hedge against inflation, protecting the purchasing power of a person's savings. That is why, when paper money is seen to be losing value, more and more wise investors trade paper dollars for gold and silver to preserve and protect the value of their savings and investments. And that increased demand will help drive the price of gold and silver even higher, because there is a limited quantity of gold and silver available in the world. In recent times, the demand has already outpaced the supply.

With the stock market declining and commodities rising, you could protect yourself against inflation and dollar devaluation by buying and holding essential commodities like oil, wheat, corn, and copper. But how would you store barrels of crude oil, bushels of corn, or tons of copper? Can you even buy and store a bar of gold bullion worth more than a quarter million dollars?

One thing almost anyone CAN afford to buy and CAN easily store is gold and silver coins. And when it comes time to trade them for food or fuel, it will be easy to find someone willing to buy gold or silver coins, or willing to trade them for goods and services. Gold and silver coins are not just commodities, for millennia they have also served as the only "real money".

With silver and gold still undervalued in light of the financial crisis unfolding in 2008, now is the best time to buy Silver American Eagles and Gold American Eagles before the spot prices of silver and gold rise to even higher prices predicted by many market analysts.

A year ago there were supposedly smart investment advisors saying gold could not go to $800 or $1000. In just the first month of 2008 it was already trading at over US $900 per ounce! Meanwhile, paper dollars are trading at an all-time low in relation to all other currencies.

A year from today, will you wish you had kept your money in gold coins, or in paper dollars?

The best way to protect the purchasing power of your savings and retirement funds is to use paper dollars to buy and hold gold and silver bullion coins.
