1. Saint-Gaudens 20-dollar Double Eagle Gold Coin-Issued from 1907 through 1933, the $20 Saint-Gaudens Gold Double Eagle Coin  is one of the rarest coins in the world. Individuals searching for a 1933-minted coin are out of luck because the United States did not circulate this style after President Franklin Roosevelt took the nation off the gold standard. This currency is a valuable investment because of its gold bullion content and its scarcity.

2. The 1933 Indian Head Gold Eagle Coin is another valuable gold coin that America banned during the Great Depression. The currency has a $10 face value, but collectors are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for a coin that is in excellent condition. Pictured here is the 1932 $10 Indian Head Gold Eagle because the 1933 coin is THAT RARE!

3. 1930 Indian Head Gold Eagle Coin-American mints did not produce any Indian Head Gold Eagle coins in 1931. This makes the 1930 Indian Head Gold Eagle coin rare, highly collectible, and an excellent investment opportunity.

4. 1/4-ounce American Gold Eagle Coin-American coins have more liquidity than the currency of many other countries, and the 1/4 Troy Oz American Gold Eagle Coin is a smart choice for investors because it is more liquid than its 1-ounce counterpart. This U.S. coin is particularly desirable as the currency choice for people who are just beginning to collect gold coins to secure their financial futures.

5. 1-ounce South African Gold Krugerrand Coin-The valuable 1 oz Gold South African Krugerrand Coin ranks almost as well as American Gold Eagle coins in terms of market liquidity. Its obverse side features the likeness of Paul Kruger, a former State President of South Africa, and its reverse side shows a Springbok antelope.

6. 1-ounce Canadian Gold Maple Leaf Coin-Many Americans enjoy investing in Canadian gold coin styles because they often trust government mints more than private mints. Produced by the Royal Canadian Mint, the 1 oz Gold Canadian Maple Leaf Coin contains very few base metals and Canadian gold from its country's mines.

7. 1-ounce Chinese Gold Panda Coin-Popular in part because of its panda design, the 1 oz Gold Chinese Panda Coin is an excellent investment product for new investors. This Chinese gold coin is highly collectible and each year features varying face changes.

8. 1-ounce Austrian Gold Philharmonic Coin-Renowned for its stunning design elements, the 1 oz Gold Austria Philharmonic Coin   has a 100-euro face value. This currency value is much lower than its spot value.

9. 1-ounce Mexican Gold Libertad Coin-For an investor looking for a coin that includes a good deal of gold, the 1 oz Gold Mexican Libertad Coin is a safe investment choice. This currency is a 0.99 fine gold coin and is one of the most highly collected coin styles in the world.

10. 2-peso Mexican Gold Coin-Minted in Mexico City, the 2-peso Mexican Gold Coin is famous for its beautiful design. This gold coin style contains nearly 0.05 troy ounces of gold, making it more liquid than this peso's higher-denomination counterparts are.
