The latest edition of Gold Coins of the World by Friedberg, an essential item for anyone dealing in coins, has been released. This catalog comprehensively covers major gold coins from ancient to modern times, along with guide prices. When compared to the prices in 2015, some fascinating trends emerge.

The price increases of particularly rare coins, such as the Holy Roman Empire’s Ducat Gold Coins and Ancient Gold Coins, are nothing short of extraordinary. For example, the beautiful 5 Ducat Gold Coin of Regensburg, renowned for its depiction of cityscapes, was listed at a guide price of $10,000 in 2017. Today, it has skyrocketed to $250,000—an incredible 25-fold increase!

Digging a little deeper, our company sold an MS-graded example of this coin in 2016 for ¥5 million. At the time, it was already considered pricey, but in a Tokyo auction in 2021, it sold for a staggering ¥42 million, marking a dramatic leap in value.

Another favorite of mine, the famous Ancient Gold Coin depicting a sphinx from the island of Chios, has also seen phenomenal growth. In the 9th edition of the catalog in 2017, it was valued at $60,000 (approximately ¥9 million) in Ch EF grade. By the 10th edition in 2024, its value has more than doubled to $165,000 (approximately ¥25 million).

Similarly, other rare Ducat Gold Coins and Ancient Gold Coins have exhibited remarkable price increases. Gold coins globally are riding a powerful upward trend!

When it comes to world gold coins, today is always the cheapest day to buy. For some particularly rare coins, even an estimated price cannot be provided, and they are simply labeled as “Very Rare.” If such coins were ever to appear on the market, one can only imagine the record-breaking prices they might achieve!

By simply browsing through the latest edition of Gold Coins of the World by Friedberg, the evidence is clear!

Investing in rare coins is always a case of “now or never,” and the chance to acquire a great coin exists only at that moment. Once that opportunity is missed, it will never come back.

“Coins are the only investment asset that responds to grim news by increasing in value!”

Now is the time to take action—don’t wait!
