Since the financial crisis began in 2007 (although I know a lot of us could agree it has been going on much longer), the value of precious metals, namely gold and silver, have outperformed most investments. As most successful trends go, people have caught onto the metals’ stellar performance and want to get a piece of the pie themselves. There are many ways to fill your portfolio with gold and silver. Investors pour money into ETFs, mining and exploration companies, mutual funds, and even jewelry, but one of the most popular, and what some may claim safest, ways to invest is with physical bullion. Cold, hard metal right in your hands.
Well if you are one of those physical gold or silver investors, you’ve stumbled upon a blog that’s just for you. In these times of mainstream gold and silver hype, there is room for some sketchy deals to take place, like with any hot commodity. We’re here at Gold Scams to talk about what to look out for and how to become an educated gold and silver bullion buyer. Every week, we’ll cover the latest in pricing, scams, and new buyer education – and include some words from the experts (Peter Schiff, David Morgan, and other influential persons in the gold and silver community).

How do I know the gold and silver eagles or buffaloes I receive are genuine?
You can always take coins to a secondary dealer or assayer to confirm the coin’s gold and silver content. This nice checklist may help too: http://coins.about.com/od/goldrarecoininvesting/f/fake_coin_fraud.htm
