Gold Purchase Formats

There are a number of physical formats you can consider when buying gold:


  • Gold Coins: Some coins have a "rarity" component associated with them that can add to their value. Coins are a great option but avoid purchasing based on rarity unless you really know what you're doing
  • Gold Jewelry: Investing in jewelry is another option. You'll take craftsmansip, design, and purity into account when valuing these items.
  • Gold Bars: Bars are typically quite pure, and stamped with the name of the production refinery. Value is directly aligned to the amount of metal in the bar.
  • Gold ETFs: These are funds designed to follow the spot price of gold. It doesn't mean you own anything physically, and isn't an effective hedge against total system collapse (but can be a good investment vehicle for some).

Tips For Buying Gold In California

Stay Liquid

Having liquid gold on-hand and ready in the event of a crisis is the best hedge. Being invested in gold ETFs is fine depending on your objectives, but if you're truly hedging against unforeseen market collapses, you want physical metal in your possession.

Don't Buy Gold On Credit

Buying gold on credit or speculating on the future price can lead to getting yourself in a significant financial jam.


Instead, put some money to the side that you're sure you're not going to need in a short time horizon, and use that to invest.

Invest On A Long Time Horizon

When investing in any asset, including gold, it's important to keep the time horizon in mind. Prices fluctuate, and over a longer time horizon there's a better chance of your investment appreciating in value.


The last thing anyone would want is to invest money they'll need in the coming months, only to have the market move against them. Talk to your financial adviser, and carefully plan any future purchases.

Gold Purchase Format

As a general rule, you should look at buying legal tender gold coins wherever possible. This will almost certainly include less overhead and premium than other formats, and be closer to the true spot price of gold.


Purchasing rare gold coins should be avoided unless you really know what you're doing. Some subjective measures of value are easy to misjudge, and may result in you getting taken advantage of.
