In this video, I give a brief overview of the history of European gold bullion coins. From 1870-1914 the world was on the classical gold standard. During this time a large quantity of gold coins were minted throughout Europe.
I'll be covering some of the pros and cons of this class of coin, as well as providing 3 examples of my personal favorite European gold coins.
Do you have any European gold coins in your stack? Let us know in the comments below. Thanks for watching, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe! =)

They are all gorgeous.
Brilliant! I´ve been stacking these coins for a few years. The French, Italian, Belgian, Spanish, Hungarian, Spanish and a few more all belong to the European or Latin Gold Monetary Union from 1865, and have the same composition, and you got the British, the German and the Nordic gold coins that correspond and are very attractive. All are considered to be bullion metal, but are in fact real but out of circulation coins. They are history. All are 90% pure, and the British 92,5%.
British sovereigns are right up there in this category for me.
Love stacking this type of gold. The German 20 Mark gold coins are my favorite. Just have to stick with Kaiser Wilhelm I and Wilhelm II on the obverse. Kaiser Friedrich III and the other German monarchs sadly carry too high of a numismatic premium.
Love the European gold coins.
Keep up this level of production and your channel is sure to grow! Thanks for all the knowledge you dropped.
thanks a lot, glad you liked it 👍
I Thoroughly enjoyed this. Excellent video.
Thank you. Very informative. Many stackers overlook these coins.
Interesting. I had wondered what price window was a good deal for British sovereigns (by weight)
Fantastic video and information, I really enjoyed watching. I still to modern bullion coins for stacking but I do enjoy seeing these older European coins. They do have really lower premiums and that's attractive.
Great video ,I like the Sovereigns
Got 3 helvetia 20 franc coins from my dad's collection. Thought they were tokens for a couple of months until compared them side by side with my gold eagles. Now I know. I want to start getting European gold coins as I stack. I am disappointed that my local lcs pasy 10% under spot for the helmet, ouch. Won't sell them to him.
Great video, thanks! I'm also a fan of the British Sovereigns on top of the 20 franc coins.
Great video, love the Franz Joseph coin stands out for me... the rest of the coins are also nice
20fr LMS
Round as a nickel
Thinner than a dime
Weighs more than a quarter
Hear it's golden chime
By comparing the specifications of these 3 common us coins to a gold 20 fr you can easily verify it's authenticity.
I have Sovereigns but I would like to get some other European gold.
Great video on European bullion Gold Coins. I only have one European Gold coin in my gold stack. It's a 20 francs from 1813 with Napoleon Bonaparte. Unsure if it's considered a bullion gold coin.
wow super nice coin❤❤❤
part of the fun is trying to figure out what you have
What is your view on the gold kurush coins? Are they a good investment?
very good
have you heard about the metric system? 20F is not so weird in this system... Title of the video really should be "The Smart Stacker's Guide for USAmericans To Investing In European Gold Bullion Coins"
Are they legal tender still in their respective countries?
The 20 FF, the 20 SF, the 20 Lira, 20 Belgian franc and I think the 20 Greek Dracma were all on the Latin Metallurgical gold exchange standard. That's why they all weigh the same. On another note......
"Bullion coins" is a redundant term.
Not counting numismatics, bullion is valued purely on 1) metal type 2) weight 3) purity
If one states they have a gold or silver coin......we already know from the material of the coin (gold or silver) that at least weight and purity is part of the coin's value. We don't need to add the term "bullion" to gold coins because the important characteristics of gold or silver already encompasses bullion (weight/purity). So, "bullion" coin is redundant and the term bullion is not needed when describing a gold/silver coin.
More information speaking to "bullion" coin being an incorrect illogical description. A cursory search on line for the definition of bullion found it to be "uncoined" metal.... ie metal such as bars or ingots before coining. So... you can't have an uncoined coin. Its not logical.
Bullion is one thing.
Gold/silver coins are different. The fiat stamp on the coin is the defining factor. In practicality an ancient coin is bullion because the fiat minted value is no longer valued. However, in techniqual terms it doesnt matter. It had a fiat declared value and had value beyond bullion based upon government decree, therefore, it is a coin.
i have a siler $1 coin 1851 i wont to know wont is it worth
Actually there is a run on these coins. Supply is low.
I guess the situation has evolved since I made this video... glad I got some a while ago!
Been thinking about buying some gold Brittanias, what a timely video! Thanks SSS!
Thanks for watching!
No problem! You have me reconsidering these over modern options.
