November 16, 2009 – Just because gold and silver prices are rising, it doesn’t automatically mean that you can make money with any type of gold and silver investment. Some investments progress further over time but cost more up front. If you buy certain silver and gold investments on a peak, it could take you much longer than anticipated to see profits. Each individual’s investment goals and plans must be figured into the equation before making a precious metal investment.

If you are looking for a short-term hedge against inflation or deflation and you want to outpace the loss made in the US dollar, a bullion investment may be advisable. If you believe that the United States is in much hotter water, because of our failing economy and the outstanding national debt, then you might want to diversify with certified gold and silver coins. These coins track the spot prices of their respective metals, but they also carry a numismatic value that has caused our government to deem them private and non-confiscatable.

If our government makes another run on bullion like it did in 1933, certified gold and silver coins would most likely remain exempt from such a seizure. Investors who believe that our nation will be in full recovery in the next few months may prefer to invest in gold bullion for short-term profits, but investors who fear a deeper recession or even a depression are more apt to succeed with a certified coin investment.
