Bullion vs Semi-Numismatic?
The Dollar is going into the toilet, and I don't want to be in a bread line... I want to invest in 1oz silver pieces or 1gram gold pieces.
But first of all I know S-N's are not reported and cannot be confiscated, but what about bullion? I really want to buy bullion bars because I have heard that they are the easiest to convert to other currencies, but I have no clue about this stuff. Is it better to invest in S-N coins, bullion bars, or bullion coins? Also is it wiser to go for the 1gram gold (which is about -) or to buy the 1oz silver (which is about -)?
Please only respond if you know this subject well! And thanks in advance!!!
Semi-Numismatics are the happy medium between graded Numismatic coins which carries a high premium above the market spot price and the bullion coin which carries the lowest premium above the spot market price. Semi-Numismatic coins offer the most Gold and/or Silver content for your money, which under current law provides privacy from government reporting as well as full protection from confiscation.
Semi-Numismatic Coins have all the investment benefits (privacy) of a Graded coin without the high markup in premium along with an unlimited upside profit potential. Semi-Numismatic coins have just enough of a premium above their melt value to qualify for exemption of government reporting and confiscation.
Example of Semi-Numismatic coins are: Swiss 20 Francs, U.S. Liberty, British Sovereigns etc..
Semi-Numismatic metals: are NON-Reportable to the Government. 1099s are not generated for their transactions.
Semi- Numismatic metals : are NON-Confiscatable by Gov.
