Reasons to Invest in British Gold Sovereigns

If you want a truly diversified portfolio, invest some of your assets in gold. Not only is gold an extremely liquid asset, but it provides insurance against fluctuations in the market. The only trouble is deciding how you want to invest in gold. The most sensible and prudent strategy is to diversify your gold holdings across two or three types of gold investments, including gold coins. The British Gold Sovereign is among the most widely traded semi-numismatic gold coins in the world, and a smart investment for people looking to buy into the gold market. Here are some of the best reasons to invest in British Gold Sovereigns.

Constant Liquidity
British Sovereigns are among the most widely traded and recognized gold bullion coins in the world. The British Sovereign’s immediate liquidity worldwide enhances the value of this legendary 22-karat gold coin and ensures a constant global trading market.

Historical Appeal
British Gold Sovereigns contain the intrinsic security of bullion with the additional profit potential that comes from their aesthetic and historical appeal. The first British Sovereigns were minted more than 500 years ago. The British Sovereign as we know it today was first introduced in 1816, with thousands of coins being minted all over the world during the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Trading Leverage
By some estimates, only one percent of all British Gold Sovereigns that have ever been minted are still in collectible condition. Compared to bullion coins and bars, the relative rarity of British Gold Sovereigns leads to leverage whereby the value of these coins increases by more than the actual price of gold in bull gold markets.
