One of the reasons many people look at buying the Iraqi Dinar is because of the volitilty of the US stock market and markets all over the world. Another alternative investment many people are looking at is gold coins as a store of wealth.

There are 2 kind of gold coins that may be of interest to particular kinds of investors. The first kind is bullion type gold coins. These coins are primarily for those investors who are looking for their investment to be stable or to follow the price of gold. Most true bullion coins will not have much more of a value than the price of gold. There are some gold bullion coins that do have collectible values, but most are only worth the price of the gold they contain.

The other kind of investment gold coins as what is known as numismatic coins. Coins that fall into this category have a value that is not so much related to the gold they contain but, rather the scarcity, age, quality, strike or some other unique feature. Some of these kinds of gold coins are valued far above the amount of the gold they contain. In fact, they are so valuable that they are usually not affected by the price of gold at all.
