Pre-1933 US gold coins falls into a unique category. Due to legal exemptions and its collectible status, pre-1933 US gold can never be confiscated by the government like other forms of legal tender. Pre-1933 gold includes coins minted between 1795 and 1933 when the Great Depression forced President Roosevelt to recall all gold coins to the U.S. Treasury by making it illegal for citizens to possess or invest in gold. Because so many coins were melted back into bars, these collectible coins are extremely rare. Double Eagles designed by Saint-Gaudens, Half Eagle Indian Heads, Liberty Head Gold Coins and California Gold Pieces are just a few of the options available to individuals interested in buying gold with collectible status. Many pre-1933 gold coins are certified by the PCGS or NGC, who grade the quality of collectible coins. View our gold dealer guide to locate companies specializing in pre-1933 US gold.
