Coin Proof
Gold Bullion Coin
Gold proof or Gold Bullion
When we see or hear of a "gold" coin, we can assume it's made entirely of gold or at least mostly gold. What we can't always assume is how much it's worth. Although Gold Coins are generally valued at the current worth of gold rather than the face value of the coin, the coin may be a gold Proof Coin or a gold bullion coin. Proof coins are the coins that are made when they are working with or experimenting with the dies to get a specific effect. The result may be a frosted or mirrored-like appearance. Proof coins are generally sold to collectors whereas bullions are used as an investment purpose, without taking the nominal value of the coin into consideration. When purchasing Gold Coins to add to your portfolio or even give as a gift, most people will purchase a gold bullion coin as they have a wide variety to choose from.
Famous Gold Bullion Coin
When thinking of a gold bullion coin, almost the first one that comes to mind is the American Buffalo coin, which is the first coin to be made in the United States with 24-karat gold. This coin is a combination of timeless elegance and intricate design, resulting in a coin with a content of 1 ounce, pure .9999 fine gold. The content of this Gold Coin is guaranteed that the words 1 OZ .9999 PURE GOLD are written on the bottom of the coin. In terms of fineness of the gold, the American Buffalo is one of the purest gold coins ever to be minted in the U.S. The gold for this bullion, as per law, is only taken from American mining sources.
The design of the American Buffalo Gold Coin came from the images originally designed on the buffalo or Indian Head Nickel by James Earle Fraser in 1913. The front of the bullion coin has the face of a Native American while the back of the coin has a buffalo standing on a mound of dirt. Legend has it that a few different Native Americans posed for Fraser until he got it exactly as he wanted it to look. He also is said to have had someone distract the buffalo to prevent the buffalo from looking at him while he was drawing. Regardless of the legend, the designs are historical and continue to be favorites of the public.
Advantages of Having a Gold Bullion Coin
When purchasing gold coins, it may be advantageous and beneficial to make sure they are bold bullion coins because they have certain guarantees that you'll want if you're using them for investment purposes. For instance, when they're United States Mint gold bullion, the United States Government will guarantee their content, weight and purity so you know what you're getting. Many people collect and save bullion coins to be used in their Individual Retirement Accounts. In that respect, owning a gold bullion coin is the same as owning a paper bill of the same face value.

State of Israel Coins Akko Silver Proof Coin $382.88 The Bank of Israel has chosen the new Akko coin with which to open both the year 2010 and the new decade. Akko richly deserves to be included among the UNESCO World Heritage Sites worthy of preservation inasmuch as this 4 000 year old port city jutting into the blue waters of the Mediterranean on Israel s northern coast is a unique and priceless jewel. UNESCO s designation of Akko states that the exceptional history of the city is reflected in the fact that its well preserved Crusader subterranean city dating from the Middle Ages atop which is the Islamic fortress city of Ottoman times (18th19th centuries) presents a priceless picture and testament of how ancient cities were planned and constructed and how later cities were built emerging from and on top of the older ones. This is exemplified as well in the layered archaeological findings of Jerusalem and each city teaches us about the other one. It is interesting to note that the Crusader city with Byzantine and Roman remnants was discovered in the 1960 s when municipal development necessitated the construction of a modern sewer system. Akko incorporates and encapsulates the entire history and archaeology of the Land of Israel from Biblical times even before King Solomon through the Greeks and Romans the Byzantines the Crusaders the Ottomon Moslems Napoleon the British and finally the fledgling State of Israel (as depicted in the famous film Exodus with its dramatic prison escape from Acre s moated fortress). Akko (Acre) is also a microcosm of modern Israel where Jews and Arabs live work and interact together in normalcy which is enviable throughout the Middle East and boasts a thriving population of some 47 000. It is a tourist mecca as well and its beauty can be seen on this coin which portrays on its obverse the ancient fortress walls with the famous KhanelUmdan caravanseraie and its clock tower erected to celebrate the 25th year of the reign of the notorious Ottoman Butcher of Acre Sultan Suleiman Abdul Hami |

State of Israel Coins Jonah In The Whale Silver Proof Coin $382.88 Jonah the Prophet was commanded by the Lord to go from the Land of Israel to the city of Nineveh (thought to be Mosul in Iraq today) to warn its people to repent for their evil ways lest their city be destroyed. Jonah however chose to flee from his mission by boarding a ship bound for Tarshish (thought to be Spain today). When a violent storm arose the ship s crew believed that one of the passengers was responsible and cast lots to determine who it could be. The lot fell on Jonah who admitted his guilt and was cast into the sea which then calmed down. Meanwhile a big fish thought to be a whale swallowed up Jonah into its belly where he remained for three days and three nights. From the belly of the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord and was saved when the fish spat him out on the shore. He then understood he was destined to go to Nineveh as he had been commanded.
