U.S. Large Size (pre 1928) "Horseblanket" or "Saddleblanket" Notes. All U.S. currency made prior to 1928 is of a larger size than modern "small size" bills, hence the nicknames "Horseblanket" or "Saddleblanket." There were many different series and types of notes printed prior to 1928 by the Federal government, and values range from the very common 1923 $1 Silver Certificates (blue seals), worth from $10 to $100 depending on condition, to ultra-rarities that can be worth tens of thousands of dollars or more. If you come into possession of any "large size" bills, we suggest that you consult one of our currency experts here at CAA-Heritage to help you make a determination of value.

A final area of coin investing to consider are the bullion coins, especially coins that are traded at close to spot price (as opposed to Proof Silver Eagles and other premium U.S. Mint offerings.) With the growth of China and India and the likelihood that they will become "superpowers" within the next generation, all precious metals are expected to rise over the long term. Copper, in particular, is expected to boom compared to current prices.

The $20 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle gold coin has been considered by many to be one of the most beautiful coins ever created. In addition to its beauty, investors privately acquire this gold coin which has outperformed gold bullion. This gold coin the Twenty Dollar gold piece also known as the Double Eagle is placed in the portfolios of investors worldwide for privacy and the guarantee that the United States government cannot go back and make anymore of these coins.

Generally speaking, 19th century gold coins with very low original mintage figures tend to have prooflike surfaces more often than not. As an example, the 1890 quarter eagle pictured above is an issue with a mintage of only 8,720 and it is often found with reflective surfaces. Some of the other types of coins that are sometimes seen with prooflike surfaces include Philadelphia Type Three gold dollars, Philadelphia quarter eagles from the 1870's and 1880's, Three Dollar gold pieces and Liberty Head double eagles from the 1890's.

Cherrypicking dealer stock, such as the boxes of slabbed coins or 2x2's, generally requires that you have a lot of back and forth interaction with the dealer. Typically, he'll hand you one box at a time to look through, and if you're fast, you might be pestering him several times in a short period of time for more coins to check. In such a scenario, it is important to be courteous and patient, and to only pull out and set aside the coins that you are pretty sure you're going to buy. The reason is that the dealer must go to several different places to put back any unsold coins you've pulled out.

Let's look at the numismatics collector scenario of investing. One of my dreams is buying bullion coins for their raw metal value but then having some of them actually turn out to have numismatic value as well. This means instant gains in my investment over my purchase price. You expose yourself to a greater chance of numismatic value if you diversify your bullion collection. Maybe a few of your bullion coins will end up having some true rare coin appeal.

There is a good way to diversify in gold coin investing: by date. When you start getting into date and buying older coins, you get into the realm of numismatics. Once you have a solid bullion collection of coins, old and rare coins can definitely help your diversification cause. One great way to do this is to throw a few $20 gold Saint Gaudens double eagles in your portfolio, the most beautiful gold coin of all time. However, the topic of numismatics is a little beyond the scope of this article which is all about diversifying your bullion coin collection.

Among my top five worst coin investments are modified coins, such as genuine U.S. Mint products that have been altered by adding holographics or coloring. These coins are generally considered "damaged" by serious coin collectors, and you will only get the bullion value when you go to sell them, if that. I have heard of dealers discounting them because of the added impurities that the paint and other crap applied to the coins adds to the metal.
According to many experts, the best type of investment coins are rarer, key date coins issued by the United States, in the best grade you can afford to buy them in. If you can't afford to shell out $2,000 a coin to buy key dates in high grades, then buy common coins in the finest grades you can. Lower grade, common coins have historically not appreciated as much in value as key date coins do, so they are probably not a good investment choice (although they're great for filling up the holes in albums, especially with kids helping out!)
