Gold Coins Click this to hassle-free property investment

Gold coins were circulated for commerce in the United States until 1933, when gold coins were confiscated and recalled.

Much to the chagrin of coin devotees, up to 95% of all the gold coins in circulation were melted down and poured into gold bars.

Surviving coins from this era are highly prized by collectors and do not come up on the market often.

301 Pennies Auctioned Off For $10.7M Click this to hassle-free property investment

LONG BEACH, Calif. - A penny saved is not necessarily just a penny earned: One man's collection of rare American cents has turned into a $10.7 million auction windfall.

The collection of 301 cents featured some of the rarest and earliest examples of the American penny, including a cent that was minted for two weeks in 1793 but was abandoned because Congress thought Lady Liberty looked frightened.

That coin and a 1794 cent with tiny stars added to prevent counterfeiters each raised hundreds of thousands of dollars, according to the Dallas-based auction house Heritage Auction Galleries, which held the sale in Long Beach on Friday night.

Heritage Auction president Greg Rohan said the auction was the biggest ever for a penny collection, with hundreds of bidders vying for the coins. Presale estimates valued the collection at about $7 million.

"It was a fabulous night," Rohan said. "Every major coin collector of American cents was either there in person, bidding online or on the telephone."

The coins came from the collection of Burbank resident Walter J. Husak, the owner of an aerospace-part manufacturing company. Husak became interested in collecting at age 13, while visiting his grandparents who paid him in old coins for helping with chores.

There were 168 successful bidders, and the auction gallery got 15 percent of the total.

Silver Coins Click this to hassle-free property investment

Investing in silver goes back for thousands of years, dating to the Mesopotamian traders who used silver as currency.

Ancient Greek drachmas were made of silver, as was the traditional Roman denarius. The English monarchy continued the tradition of trading in silver currency, and even the name, pounds sterling, signifies its original makeup.

As an investment vehicle, silver is often looked to as a hedge against hard times.

Coin collection sells for $30 million Click this to hassle-free property investment

An anonymous buyer has paid more than $30 million for a collection of rare U.S. prototype coins, some from the 1700s, that never went into circulation, according to the dealer that brokered the deal.

The collection consists of about 1,000 coins that collectors refer to as pattern coins — trial designs that never went into production because the U.S. Mint chose other designs.

"This collection is an incredible collection ... These were some of the first coins ever, ever struck by the United States government," said Laura Sperber, a partner in Legend Numismatics of Lincroft, N.J., which brokered the deal.

The seller wanted to remain anonymous, and the buyer, concerned about security, agreed to be identified only as "Mr. Simpson, a Western states collector," Sperber said.

"Both the buyer and the seller are very competitive people. And they're very successful in their careers, and they both love the romance and collectability of coins," Sperber said.

The coins span the period from 1792 to 1942. Highlights include test designs for the first pennies made in 1792 and six coins from 1872 that are often referred to as "Amazonian" patterns because the female figure portraying liberty is much stronger and regal looking than earlier versions.

It took the seller about 10 years to assemble the collection, Sperber said.

Gathering such a large collection of pattern coins is difficult because so few were created in the first place. And they were usually supposed to stay in the possession of the Mint — after all, these were the rejects.

"To accumulate as many patterns as there are in this collection, that's incredible," said Douglas A. Mudd, Curator of the American Numismatic Association Money Museum in Colorado Springs, Colo.

The coins could have made their way into private hands as gifts, or as trades with collectors for other coins that the Mint wanted to acquire, Sperber said.

Independent, third-party experts have verified the collection, Sperber said.

Many of the coins bear depictions of a woman representing liberty and not the profile of a former president, as displayed on coins currently circulating.

Until 1909, when Abraham Lincoln's face was placed on the penny, presidents weren't allowed on coins. At the time the first coins were minted in 1792, putting the nation's leader on a coin seemed too similar to the practice of kings being displayed on European coins. That wasn't considered the best example for a country less than a decade removed from the Revolutionary War.

"To put an individual on coinage was considered very unrepublican because the people have the power in a republic," Mudd said.

Sperber would not say how much her company earned for brokering the deal but said she hopes the magnitude of the sale will get more people interested in collecting coins.

"They're historical. They're beautiful works of art," Sperber said. "They're just plain neat."

The US Mint Click this to hassle-free property investment

Collecting mint-condition coins is a specialty of many collectors. When coins are collected and preserved before they are circulated, they are said to be in "mint" condition.

Coins with mint-made imperfections also make nice collectables. These mint errors happen when a defect occurs in the mint while the coin is being made.
