Gold Coins
Many people may be familiar with U.S. bullion coins, but GoldMax buys gold coins from countries all over the world.
No matter when or where they’re from, you can sell all of them at GoldMax!
Let’s take a look at just a few of them now:
American Eagle
Gold Composition: 91.67% gold
Gold Fine Weight: 1.0 troy ounce
First released by the United States Mint in 1986, this coin features Lady Liberty’s full-length figure with her hair blowing in the breeze, a version of Augustus Saint-Gaudens’ 1907 sketches for the $20 double-eagle. While it was inspired by Greek coins, the Gold American Eagle coin displays distinctly American symbols such as the torch and olive branch. On the reverse you could find a family of eagles until 2021, which has now been replaced with the beautifully detailed portrait of an eagle’s head.
Canadian Maple Leaf
Gold Composition: 99.9-99.99% gold
Gold Fine Weight: 1 gram to 1 troy ounce
Easily recognizable with Walter Ott’s distinctive Sugar Maple Leaf on the reverse and the Canadian monarch on the obverse, the Canadian Maple Leaf is a popular choice with collectors. This coin has been produced by the Royal Canadian Mint since 1979 with a fineness of .999 until the end of 1982, when it was increased to .9999 fine gold. The numbers agree: during its run, more than 25 million troy ounces have been sold!
South African Krugerrand
Gold Composition: 91.67% gold
Gold Fine Weight: .10 to 1.0 troy ounce
With only the 1oz size minted from 1967-1979, the South African Mint opted to include smaller sizes of this groundbreaking coin in 1980. The reverse displays the iconic image of a Springbok antelope, created in the 1930s, while the obverse pictures Paul Kruger, the former president often referred lovingly to as Oom Paul (Uncle Paul). Combine his last name with the South African currency, the Rand, and you’ve got the name of this highly recognizable coin: the Krugerrand.
Austrian Philharmonic
Gold Composition: 99.99% gold
Gold Fine Weight: .10 to 1.0 troy ounce
Produced by Münze Österreich since 1989, this is the only European coin with its value listed in Euros since it switched from Schilling in 2002! The Austrian Philharmonic coin features an unchanging design created by Thomas Pesendorfer, with an assortment of string and brass instruments on one side, and the balcony of the “Golden Hall”, or the Musikverein Concert Hall, and its famed giant pipe organ on the other.
Mexican Libertad
Gold Composition: 90-99.9% gold
Gold Fine Weight: .05 to 1.0 troy ounce
Minted since 1981 by La Casa de Moneda de México (Mexican Mint), the obverse of this coin remains unchanged since its creation, showcasing the Mexican coat of arms with an eagle battling a serpent while perched on a cactus. The reverse features Winged Victory, a symbol of independence and hope for the Mexican people based on the Roman goddess of victory, aptly named Victoria. Her image has stayed on the coin since it was first released; however, the perspective was shifted from a frontal view to a three-quarter profile in 1999.
PAMP Suisse Lady Fortuna Ingot
Gold Composition: 99.99% gold
Gold Fine Weight: 1 gram and up
This ingot is probably the most widely known in the last few years, skyrocketing to popularity due to its beauty and availability. First introduced in 1979, this beautifully detailed ingot depicts the Roman goddess of good fortune wearing a blindfold to display her impartiality. She is surrounded by symbols of her attributes, with sheaves of wheat and a poppy flower in her hair, the Wheel of Fortune peeking out from behind her, and the Horn of Plenty spilling precious coins into the Hands of Fortune at the very bottom.
Johnson Matthey Ingot
Gold Composition: 99.99% gold
Gold Fine Weight: 1 gram and up
Founded as a gold assaying business in London in 1817 by Percival Norton Johnson, Johnson Matthey became the Bank of England’s offical gold assayer one year after George Matthey joined the business in 1851. The company branched out in the years to come into the production of jewelry, silverware, cutlery, and more, and worked its way into the banking industry by the 1960s. They departed from precious metals in 2014, closing refineries that dealt in gold and silver to focus on recycling and reusing the six platinum-group metals: ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, and platinum. These bars are still seen in the precious metals trade from time to time but does not have the same level of demand in the current market as more modern art designs like the PAMP Fortuna above.
