The wee hours of the morning loss of an hour did not deter folks from arriving to the March Greater Atlanta Coin Show early.
Guests to the show enjoyed buying, selling, trading and browsing among the dealers' showcases of coins, currency, bullion and other items.
Outside, Mother Nature gave us an overcast day with temperatures in the upper 50s and light, sporadic rain throughout the day.
Of course, we appreciate all of our visitors, our dealers, our security and the hotel's staff. All of you contribute to making the show an interesting place to spend a few hours one Sunday each month.
With the continued increase in the gold metals' market and a strong silver value, our dealers were busy buying and selling silver and gold.
Some guests want to buy whereas others want to sell in this market. Both can be advantageous depending on the individual's situation.
Just remember, it wasn't that long ago that gold's value was in the $300 per ounce range. People who have held theirs through the years could make a significant profit with gold currently rising to the $3000 per ounce value.
On the silver side, people looked to buy bullion, mainly in ingots and rounds.
Whether looking for precious metals or searching for specific coins to add to a collection, the dealers at the show offer both expensive and inexpensive options.
Plus, the dealers at the show provide a wide variety of expertise to answer your questions and help you with your objectives.
Once again, the March show generated a busy and interesting place to spend time among the treasures.
Now, let's look at a small sample from the show including a novelty and several gold coins.

Our first example for March shows two naval ships.
These are from die-cast metal.
One appears to be the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier while the other is a naval gun ship.
Though not coins or other types of numismatics, these are certainly collectible items to remember and honor our wartime naval services.
Being metal, these two ships would be an interesting addition to a collection of military memorabilia.

Our next example is from the 1995 series of Civil War commemoratives produced by the US Mint.
This coin graded by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation) as Mint State 69 is the five dollar gold commemorative.
The obverse shows a bugler on his horse while the reverse has an eagle holding a banner "Let Us Protect and Preserve" while standing on a Union shield.
The five dollar commemorative gold coin contains 90% gold and 10% silver with a net weight of .2418 ounce pure gold.
The US Mint produced these coins in 1995 to provide monetary support to the nation's civil war battlefields.
This coin remembers the trials and tribulations of the civil war while providing an interesting way to collect gold.

The next specimen showcases the American Eagle five dollar coin, however the packaging is not original government issue.
Sometimes, collectors insist on original government packaging. In this case, the coin's value is tied to its metal content and the American Gold Eagle design.
The American Eagle Five Dollar contains .9167 gold, .03 silver and .0533 copper with a total net pure gold weight of 1/10 ounce.
The smaller American Gold Eagle coins contain the same designs as their larger counterparts.
The different sizes help people buy gold to match their budget and their interests.

Our last example includes three different 1870 gold coins produced by the Carson City mint location.
All three coins contain the Liberty Head design on the obverse. The reverse designs vary somewhat, especially on the double eagle ($20) gold coin.
More interesting, perhaps, is their mintages.
The Carson City mint produced 7,675 of the half eagle ($5) coins, 5,908 of the eagles ($10) , and 3,789 of the double eagles ($20).
PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service) estimates the survival rate across all grades as 77 for the half eagles, 66 for the eagles, and 41 for the double eagles.
In short, these three gold coins are rare, and their total value ranges well into the six-digit range.
They would be a nice, though expensive, addition to a coin or a gold collection.
