Precious Metals for a Precious Dad
By | June 07, 2019

Why risk adding to the pile of boring Father’s Day gifts when collectible coins, bullion, and currency are so much more memorable?

Gold is Great
There’s nothing quite like real gold, and a Gold American Eagle makes a memorable gift. This beautiful coin features Lady Liberty walking confidently against the sun’s rays. The reverse shows a bald eagle in flight carrying an olive branch to his nest where his mate awaits with their young. It’s a perfect image of how much Dad has meant to his family.

Gold American Eagle coins are available in multiple sizes and grades to suit almost any budget.

Silver is Sentimental
Less expensive but equally beautiful, U.S. and international silver coins come in a wide variety of sizes and designs. The 1-ounce American Silver Eagle coin has the same Walking Liberty depicted on the Gold Eagle on its face and a majestic bald eagle design on its reverse. These coins can be purchased loose or in attractive U.S. Mint gift boxes.

Bullion is Beautiful, Too
Coins of any type have numismatic, or collectible, worth in addition to their intrinsic metal value. But private mints make bullion coins and bars that are certified amounts of gold, silver, platinum, or palladium with no collectible value other than their worth as pure precious metals. These items are generally available at very low markups over the metal’s spot price. US Mint bullion coins are also available through private dealers.

And whether your dad stalks big game, bad guys, or werewolves, he’s bound to get a kick out of pure silver bullets. These 100% accurate replica .45 caliber Colt automatic rounds are one full ounce of .999 fine silver and make great conversation pieces.

Give Dad a Gift to Remember
