"Buying bullion coins. Thomas and Hanlon say new investors should stick to sovereign coins. Those are coins struck by major global mints such as the U.S. Mint, the Royal Canadian Mint and the Perth Mint. Coins made by those mints are easy to buy and sell, and they are known even to people outside of the coin world." #Numismatics   #CoinCollecting Gold Bullion Bars, Bullion Coins, Gold Coins, Mint Coins, Gold Investments, Gold Stock, Buying Gold, Nespresso Cups

German New Guinea 50c colour printed coin. When war was declared in August 1914, Australians sprung to action to fight for the cause.
