Grow Children’s Futures with Modern World Coins

Artistic and collectible coins are great gifts for kids. They are gifts that keep on giving. Modern world coins tell stories and art, culture and science depicted on world coins are interesting to children.  Considering the buying power you can gift today to your children, they should interest you too.
 

A great way to look at future college tuitions is by how much gold or silver it will cost today. With rising cost of education, a gift of gold and silver can be a great choice to help keep up with the growing cost of education.
World coins have lessons. The lessons they teach are the conversations they start; a gift in itself.  Precious metal coins are conversation pieces.  They have hard asset value.  They possess historical and cultural significance.  Silver and gold coins have the capability to offer children financial support and their savings can be used later in life for education.

As an economic lesson, numismatic coins are rich. They include lessons to save, lessons to prepare for the future, valuable lessons about understanding commodities and currencies.  Modern world coins teach us how to invest when inflation is looming and the dollar’s buying power is dropping.

Gold and Silver gifts often grow in value over time. Buying United States treasuries and savings bonds today come with risk of a lack of repayment of your principal investment and the yield on such an investment, given the high risk today of significant inflation, is questionable. The ten year yield on silver coins and gold coins has the potential to be exciting. Gifts of gold and silver coins to children can help pay the national debt we have forced upon them.  As our children mature, so do gold and silver coins.

Gold and Silver are gifts that can buy a future.

Remember, there are no guarantees about whether or not a coin or any collectible, material thing or instrument in any asset class will increase in value and past performance of a coin’s return is Not indicative of future results.
