The United States Mint’s Most Reliably Profitable Gold Coin

Click to read the whole story:

The $25, half-ounce Gold Eagle consistently posts the lowest of the four denominations of the coin struck each year. The relative scarcity of these coins only becomes meaningful to secondary markets after the end of the issue year. Smart numismatic investors buy them before prices start to rise.

$25 Gold: By the Numbers

  • 11 of the 36 issues produced by the Mint list on NGC/PCGS price guides for $4,400 or more in MS-70 condition!

  • Six of those issues list for $9,000 or more!

  • Keep in mind these are half ounce coins, which makes their track record even more impressive compared to common one‑ounce bullion gold coins with twice the gold content!

  • Since 1986, 36 issues of this coin have been released. Almost one in three have gained over 1,400%
