Why I Expect Large Gains For Selected 19th and 20th Century 20 Franc Gold Coins
by Mark Albarian
President & CEO Goldline International, Inc.
There are a number of reasons why investors need
to own gold. Many of these reasons center around the fact
that gold is a safe haven asset. Those reasons include:
the current volatile market for stocks, an increasing threat
of terrorism, enormous trade and budget deficits, the potential
for deflation, and an increasing potential for an international
debt crisis.
There are also profit potential reasons to invest in gold.
Clearly, gold has upside potential to its previous record
high of $850 an ounce. Some analysts, such as Richard Russell,
are predicting that gold is likely to rise as high as $3000
an ounce. Therefore, it seems clear that gold has a great
long term outlook. However, even in the short term, gold
also offers excellent potential. Over the past 12 months,
gold has risen about 15% and has substantially outperformed
stocks. With bank deposits yielding very low rates, many
investors will prefer gold to bank deposits, or cash in
their safe deposit box.
If you agree with me that gold has excellent upside potential
and is a desirable asset, then the next question is what
form of gold to invest in. Goldline offers every gold coin,
from the most common bullion coins like Kugerrands, Maple
Leafs and American Eagles, to the rarest of rare coins,
including gold coins from historic and specialized collections
such as Wells Fargo Nevada Gold.
However, we find that most first time investors choose
the European 20 franc size gold coins as their first gold
investment. These coins offer a number of features and benefits
that are attractive to first time investors. These include
affordability, financial privacy and the potential to be
exempt from confiscation. Perhaps most importantly for first
time investors the 20 franc is offered with a seven day,
absolutely unconditional money back guarantee. This provides
the comfort and assurance of knowing that you will receive
your coins in a timely fashion, and that you will be satisfied
with them when you receive them.
Here are some important reasons every investor should own
some gold coins, specifically historic 20 franc gold coins…
1. Uncertainty in Our Financial Markets
With a weak economy and layoffs in the news, the outlook
for financial assets like stocks is shaky. Tech, auto, bank
and media stocks have already fallen sharply – even
the so-called “Blue Chips.” Lucent, the old
Bell Laboratories, has fallen from $70 to $1. Ford was once
worth more than $30 per share, now it is under $10. General
Electric shares have lost more than half of their value.
J.P. Morgan-Chase, one of the nation’s largest banks,
was once over $50. Recently, it fell below $15.
A weak economy, falling stock prices and uncertainty about
the future have hurt common stock investors and retirement
accounts like IRA’s and 401-k’s. These factors
are propelling a growing number of investors to add 20 franc
gold coins to their holdings as a gold diversification.
They know their gold coins will always be a valuable asset,
which is more than can be said about some common stocks.
2. Rising Impact of The War On Terrorism
Our newspapers and media reports are filled with news about
our nation’s overt and covert operations in the war
against rogue states and terror cells. The threat of a war
and terrorism increases tensions and anxieties – and
the demand for gold. I expect the threat of terrorism to
be with the U.S. for many years. These fears are bullish
for gold.
3. Low Interest Rates
“Cash has never been as seemingly wretched an option
as now,” said Tom Petruno in the Los Angeles Times
(Nov. 10, 2002). Savings accounts, Certificates of Deposit
and Treasury Bills are currently earning less than 2 percent
per year – the lowest return in our lifetime. That
means, Petruno points out, today’s savers are actually
losing money after taxes and inflation.
With interest-earning accounts losing value, assets that
offer substantial profit potential look very attractive.
Remember, gold is the safest form of money.
4. Gold's Favorable Price & Cycle Position
Gold peaked above $850 per ounce in 1980. For 22 years,
as common stocks appreciated, it was out of favor. Now stocks
are falling in value and gold’s luster as an under-valued
and under-priced investment is getting brighter. Gold has
recently bottomed – and many analysts are forecasting
sharply higher prices for the years ahead. Richard Russell,
James Sinclair and others expect gold to rise to $1000 and
possibly as high as $3000. A bull market in gold will cause
the value of 20 franc coins to rise dramatically. Investors
should acquire 20 franc coins now, while they’re still
affordable.
5. More Affordable
When compared with the slightly heavier, much scarcer U.S.
$5 gold coins of the same era and grade at around $350,
20 franc gold coins at less than $100 per coin are a more
affordable way to build your gold holdings.
6. Easy to Acquire

I believe that selected 20 franc gold coins will be among
the leaders as gold bullion and the coin market move to
higher levels in the years ahead. They are a potentially
profitable financial diversification. They embody the history
and monetary freedom of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
And, they’re a golden privacy shield to help protect
you and your savings from unforeseen volatility and risk.
Best of all, these affordable gold coins offer enormous
upside potential based on where they were at their historic
highs. The long-term gains could be staggering!
