{quote} The platinum American eagle is a beautiful coin and considering how low platinum is right now (lowest since 2009) my vote would be that one.
Yeah, I'm leaning towards platinum. Although, I'm questioning how valuable platinum will really be in the future with the way it has been over the better part of the past decade. In 20 years I don't want my son to look back and say "thanks for the coin, but why didn't you get me one that's valuable?" I don't think that's a risk with gold.

If PlayStation trophies are anything to go off (and they most definitely are), platinum is the best at 180 points. Gold is only worth 90 points

Buy gold first, before any other precious metal. Personally, I'd buy silver second but I see the argument for platinum.

He's not going to be disappointed with either of these two.

Thanks for the advice. I'm definitely going with 1oz American Eagle from apmex, the only question is what metal. I'd hope it stays in the family several generations so I'm looking at a 100 year time horizon. Platinum is rarer than gold and it has historically been worth more, so in the ultra long term I suspect it will retake it's place as the most valuable metal. If it were short or medium term I'd go buy gold without thinking twice.

Also, the platinum eagle is worth $50 more than a gold

So you can buy platinum for less than gold, but it is really worth more? Deutsche Bank’s arb desk is probably all over this...

One interesting difference between some of these coins is not all of them are IRA eligible.

I also read that there are some pretty intense penalties for forging American Eagle coins so that drives away a lot of counterfeiters from attempting to forge that coin.

Guys how do you feel about the collectors box version of coins?

For instance this palladium American eagle is absolutely beautiful and very enticing but sells for $1,000 over spot prices.. https://www.apmex.com/product/152858...agle-w-box-coa

I’m sure the case will help keep it in great condition but I wonder if you get your premium back when you sell it or if that’s a sunk cost.

Even the palladium eagle without a box sells for ~$600 over spot... maybe the Canadian maple leaf is a better choice on this one?

It looks like the high prices are just because the coin is "new":

  1. https://coinweek.com/bullion-report/...es-collectors/
  2. https://news.coinupdate.com/2018-w-a...s-speculators/


Surely this cannot go on for much longer.

That is absolutely correct. Anytime a new coin is minted, the first year is expected to carry a premium. Having said that, I'm not sure about any investment in palladium over gold. The first year palladium american eagle will only be a good investment if palladium appreciates, regardless of the premium. Gold is the better bet IMO.

I would advise against buying any coin not from a government mint, but figured I'd post it anyways. I just saw that there have been some new coins released.
