Collecting coins is an age-old hobby. Originating thousands of years ago, the art of collecting coins (and the
coin collecting industry in general) has taken a unique shape. An increasing number of individuals are interested in purchasing rare and valuable coins, not only for numismatic purposes, but also as assets to add to their investment portfolios. The general demand for rare, valuable coins has increased drastically over the years. And unfortunately with this increased demand, comes the risk of purchasing
counterfeit coins.
Authorised coin shops such as
The Scoin Shop hold specific licenses to sell authentic gold, silver and platinum coins to investors and collectors. It is crucial that buyers, especially those new to the trade, are aware of the range of fake collector’s coins that are being circulated. The Scoin Shop is the South African retail division of the South African Gold Coin Exchange: specialising in rare, valuable gold, silver and platinum coins for sale.
