Top 5 Advantages of American Eagle Proof Coins

Investing in gold and silver American Eagle proof coins offers an assortment of benefits. For instance, the value of proof coins increases but not just on the spot price.  Proof coins are also known to have collector value because they are minted in less quantity and a different minting process.  Perfect example, last week the spot price of silver dropped but the price of silver eagle proofs went up because the mint ran out of proof coins.  Although investors may have lost money on regular silver eagles, silver eagle proof owners made a profit.

Another advantage of investing on gold and silver coins is that it does quite well against inflation.  Proof coins have always been an excellent investment regardless of whether inflation is helping or hurting the stock market.  

Here are a few benefits of investing in gold and silver American Eagle proof coins:

Diminishing Supply

Unlike other investments such as stocks, increase in demand makes the price increase of coins inevitable. In other words, the supply of coins will never be increased to meet the new demand. It can only be satisfied with higher rates.  Best of all, a limited supply of coins actually decreases the downside risk.

Proof Coins are Liquid

What is the advantage of investing in coins when it comes to liquidity?  When you’re ready to sell your coins, you receive payment much faster than other investments such as stocks.

Anonymity

One major advantage of investing in coins is that the investor is not required to file any kind of government reports. So, you can remain an anonymous investor.

Excellent Tax Terms

With gold and silver coins, you don’t have to worry about shelling out extra money for taxes.  The only time you’re required to pay any kind of tax is when you sell your coins.


Proof Coins are Affordable

When compared to other investments such as real estate, you can invest in coins regardless of what your coin investment budget is.  Investments such as real estate demand an extremely large sum of money.

If you’re thinking about investing in the proof coin market, the five benefits above can be a great help in making your decision.  There’s no question, proof coins are considered an excellent addition to an investment portfolio.
