                              The word is… INFLATION!

A New Tidal Wave of Inflationary Debt

Whether or not the out-of-control spending will jumpstart the U.S. economy is debatable, but the
inevitable outcome of Washington’s fiscal policies will be a sharp devaluation of the dollar as the
world becomes awash in greenbacks. This will manifest itself in the form of inflation, perhaps even
hyperinflation, such as that experienced in Latin America in the 1970s.

                         The Coming Boom in Tangible Assets

                                  In light of this anticipated inflationary spiral, the vast majority of
                                  true economic experts today point to tangible assets as the most
                                  certain way to hedge and preserve your wealth. For example,
                                  many predict gold will far surpass its historic “adjusted for
                                  inflation” high of $2,176 an ounce in the late 1980s—making
                                  today’s price of around $900 seem like a tremendous bargain.

                                  Many money managers, who have long recommended that
                                  investors hold 10% of financial assets in tangibles, have now
                                  doubled that number.

                                  And leading the way in tangible-asset protection is the venerable
                                  yellow metal for the ages: GOLD.


But There’s a Problem With Gold.

As you shall read in this Special Report, the government
can confiscate your gold. They’ve done it before, and
they can do it again.

So, yes, gold is a fine hedge against inflation—but it
may not be the best hedge. In this Report you will learn
how history’s most enduring collectible has
outperformed gold with no risk of confiscation—
and how market forces are lined up to fuel perhaps the
biggest run up in the key area of this collectible in its
2000-year history.

The collectible area we’re referring to is coins. Rare
coins. Not just any rare coins, but a specific segment
of the rare-coin market where there is huge pressure on
demand coupled with extremely limited supply.

As you will learn from these pages, some United States
coins—no matter how shiny, how old, and how
seemingly historic and steeped in collector value—are, in
fact, not rare at all and can be a hazard to your long-
term wealth.

At the same time, other coins—well-chosen and well-
purchased for the right reasons—may be …

The Ultimate Hedge Against Inflation

Before we talk about coins, however, let’s briefly recap the state of the U.S. economy and where
most observers believe we’re headed under the policies of the “spend now and figure out how to
pay it back later” administration.

Easy Money Undermines the US Dollar

To implement spendthrift fiscal policies, the Federal Reserve continues to print dollars in an effort
to spark economic activity through easy-money policies that can only serve to further undermine
the dollar and sew the seeds of future high inflation.

A blatant example of these policies hit home during the week of March 16 to March 21 when the
Fed announced that it was commencing open-market operations, which means it plans on
increasing the money supply by buying back U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds in the open
market.

This seldom-used mechanism is the most classic form of literally creating money out of thin air.
Not surprisingly, during that week the U.S. dollar saw its steepest weekly fall since the Plaza
Accord devalued the dollar back in 1985.

Investors beware: This is just the beginning!


A Vicious Cycle is Now at Hand.

The Fed is working at inflating the U.S. economy with easy money, which serves to undermine the
value of the dollar, which in turn results in less demand for the dollar, which in turn sends the
value lower still …

The cycle described above has obviously spooked the financial markets. Historically, high inflation
has been terrible for the bond market as well— and some of the roughest years in the stock market
were a result of high inflation.

In fact, did you know that the stock market over the past 12 years—based on today’s
values—has not outpaced inflation?




949-488-9530                  © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved              Page 3 of 8
In the past, investors have been able to turn to real estate as a reliable hedge against high
inflation. But, as you know all too well, that’s no longer a safe option.

In summation, what we have is an ongoing combination of unprecedented uncertainty and an
unprecedented crisis in the dollar.

Nobody knows exactly when inflation will hit, how fast it will accelerate, or what the long-term
impact of a vastly weakened dollar portends. Inflation has been described as being like toothpaste.
It can be difficult to start, but once it breaks loose, it’s nearly impossible to put back into the
monetary tube! No wonder that the last serious bout of high inflation lasted from 1973 to 1981, a
full eight years.

As a result, we’re likely to witness—up close and personal—the worst bout of inflation America has
ever experienced. And the coming inflationary crisis might be both more severe and longer than
any such episode that has occurred in the past.

How To Protect Yourself From the Coming Crisis

element in your financial foundation.

A Better Inflation Hedge Than Gold?

Although most investors should own some gold, gold may not be the best inflation hedge in
the years to come.

Many prudent investors hold gold bullion for insurance or security purposes—a sort of hedge
against crisis, inflation, and uncertainty.

Gold has served in this role for thousands of years, but laws created by governments that
have grown too big put this role in doubt today. Therefore, investors need a better
hedge.

Gold Confiscation: Can It Happen Again?
      Leading financial institutions collapsing.
      The value of the dollar in a freefall.
      Gold prices are soaring.

                         These are the same the circumstances
                        that led to the gold confiscation of 1933

The U.S. has had bans against, or financial disincentives for, the private ownership of
gold in the past. This is one reason why the U.S. Government has reporting
requirements for bullion transactions.

In fact, America has actually seen four different gold confiscations, the last of which
occurred during the Great Depression in 1933. From 1933 until 1974, U.S. citizens could not
legally own gold.

However, what few people realize is that when the freedom to own gold was restored in
1974, a provision of the Federal Reserve Act was retained that permitted the Secretary
of the Treasury to require individuals to surrender their gold.


            The President’s gold        This action would most likely be started by an Executive
              confiscation order        Order from the president. Nothing in the legislation that
    specifically exempted “gold         ended the forty-year ban against gold ownership changed
      coins having a recognized         the fact that Congress continued to treat the private
   special value to collectors of       ownership of gold as a privilege to be enjoyed at its
       rare and unusual coins.”         discretion rather than as a right.

In 1933, in an attempt to control the monetary and banking crisis associated with the Great
Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, with Executive Order No. 6102, confiscated all
privately owned gold in the United States.

Gold confiscation was undertaken in the name of stabilizing America’s monetary system. Today, if it
becomes necessary for the U.S. to bolster a collapsing dollar with gold, the Treasury no longer has
enough gold to accomplish the task.

       When gold bullion was confiscated, the government compensated
       individuals with paper currency at the then official gold price. How would
       you like to accept a grossly devalued dollar, next year or the year after,
       when the government needs your gold?

A Crucial Exception To The Confiscation of Gold

However, rare coins (defined as “coins having a recognized special value to collectors of rare and
unusual coins") were exempt from government confiscation provisions, not due to any love of coin
collectors, but because determining appropriate compensation, coin-by-coin, collector-by-collector,
would have been an administrative nightmare and logistical impossibility.

Twelve words provided the defensive blockade for coin owners: "nor shall private
property be taken for public use, without just compensation." Since the confiscation of rare
gold coins would be taking private property, “just compensation” would have to be paid.

                In other words, while it is relatively easy to confiscate gold,
                      it is virtually impossible to confiscate rare coins.

Not only do applicable laws expressly exempt rare coins from gold confiscation provisions, rare
coins are private and do not require the filing of information returns with the Internal
Revenue Service, as does gold bullion.




RARE COINS: The Better Safe Haven

That’s why, in times of crises such as hyperinflation or depression, it is far better to own
numismatics—that is, rare coins—than gold bullion.

To understand why this is so, you need to understand the market forces behind history’s most
enduring collectible. Then, we will describe what we believe is the best possible way to invest in
coins. And it’s not just our “opinion.” Our company actually owns more than $40 million worth of
the precise kind of coins you need to own, that is, if protecting your wealth is of importance to you.


Why Rare Coins?

       Because numismatic coins are not a fad. On the contrary,
       they’ve been collected for more than 2000 years.

       Because coins represent the very embodiment of the economic
       miracle America has brought to the world, they are a much
       sought after artifact of history.

       Because 100 million Americans collect coins, and there
       is constant upward pressure on the high end of the rare-
       coin market—where demand keeps growing and there
       simply are not enough coins to go around.

Well-chosen rare coins also offer a number of other advantages, in addition to protection from gold
confiscation. In fact, high-quality coins are a “win-win-win” for investors today:

                                            asset until normalcy returns?


Rare coins have a history of providing handsome returns in virtually all periods of
economic growth—inflationary and otherwise. This has been proven by an authoritative
study conducted by Dr. Raymond Lombra of the economics department at Penn State.

In his study, Professor Lombra examined the performance of various investments, including gold
bullion and rare coins, over a quarter century, ending in 2007. Here are some of the conclusions in
his study:

       During the 25-year period studied, rare coins were a better diversifier than gold
       for a portfolio of stocks and bonds.

       Rare coins achieved substantial gains even during periods when the price of gold
       fell. For example, from 1988-1990, rare coins appreciated more than 100%, while the
       price of gold fell from $500 to $360.

       The average annual return from rare coins was over 200% better than the average
       annual return on gold.

       The total return from rare coins in their best year was nearly 100% better than
       the return from gold in its best performing year.

       The total return from rare coins in their best three-year period was almost 100%
       better than the return from gold in its best three-year period.

In fact, if history is any judge, the biggest question when it comes to the long-term performance of
well-chosen rare coins is:

The word is… INFLATION! 949-488-9530 © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved Page 1 of 8
  • 3. A New Tidal Wave of Inflationary Debt Whether or not the out-of-control spending will jumpstart the U.S. economy is debatable, but the inevitable outcome of Washington’s fiscal policies will be a sharp devaluation of the dollar as the world becomes awash in greenbacks. This will manifest itself in the form of inflation, perhaps even hyperinflation, such as that experienced in Latin America in the 1970s. The Coming Boom in Tangible Assets In light of this anticipated inflationary spiral, the vast majority of true economic experts today point to tangible assets as the most certain way to hedge and preserve your wealth. For example, many predict gold will far surpass its historic “adjusted for inflation” high of $2,176 an ounce in the late 1980s—making today’s price of around $900 seem like a tremendous bargain. Many money managers, who have long recommended that investors hold 10% of financial assets in tangibles, have now doubled that number. And leading the way in tangible-asset protection is the venerable yellow metal for the ages: GOLD. But There’s a Problem With Gold. As you shall read in this Special Report, the government can confiscate your gold. They’ve done it before, and they can do it again. So, yes, gold is a fine hedge against inflation—but it may not be the best hedge. In this Report you will learn how history’s most enduring collectible has outperformed gold with no risk of confiscation— and how market forces are lined up to fuel perhaps the biggest run up in the key area of this collectible in its 2000-year history. The collectible area we’re referring to is coins. Rare coins. Not just any rare coins, but a specific segment of the rare-coin market where there is huge pressure on demand coupled with extremely limited supply. As you will learn from these pages, some United States coins—no matter how shiny, how old, and how seemingly historic and steeped in collector value—are, in fact, not rare at all and can be a hazard to your long- term wealth. At the same time, other coins—well-chosen and well- purchased for the right reasons—may be … 949-488-9530 © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved Page 2 of 8
  • 4. The Ultimate Hedge Against Inflation Before we talk about coins, however, let’s briefly recap the state of the U.S. economy and where most observers believe we’re headed under the policies of the “spend now and figure out how to pay it back later” administration. Easy Money Undermines the US Dollar To implement spendthrift fiscal policies, the Federal Reserve continues to print dollars in an effort to spark economic activity through easy-money policies that can only serve to further undermine the dollar and sew the seeds of future high inflation. A blatant example of these policies hit home during the week of March 16 to March 21 when the Fed announced that it was commencing open-market operations, which means it plans on increasing the money supply by buying back U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds in the open market. This seldom-used mechanism is the most classic form of literally creating money out of thin air. Not surprisingly, during that week the U.S. dollar saw its steepest weekly fall since the Plaza Accord devalued the dollar back in 1985. Investors beware: This is just the beginning! A Vicious Cycle is Now at Hand. The Fed is working at inflating the U.S. economy with easy money, which serves to undermine the value of the dollar, which in turn results in less demand for the dollar, which in turn sends the value lower still … The cycle described above has obviously spooked the financial markets. Historically, high inflation has been terrible for the bond market as well— and some of the roughest years in the stock market were a result of high inflation. In fact, did you know that the stock market over the past 12 years—based on today’s values—has not outpaced inflation? 949-488-9530 © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved Page 3 of 8
  • 5. In the past, investors have been able to turn to real estate as a reliable hedge against high inflation. But, as you know all too well, that’s no longer a safe option. In summation, what we have is an ongoing combination of unprecedented uncertainty and an unprecedented crisis in the dollar. Nobody knows exactly when inflation will hit, how fast it will accelerate, or what the long-term impact of a vastly weakened dollar portends. Inflation has been described as being like toothpaste. It can be difficult to start, but once it breaks loose, it’s nearly impossible to put back into the monetary tube! No wonder that the last serious bout of high inflation lasted from 1973 to 1981, a full eight years. As a result, we’re likely to witness—up close and personal—the worst bout of inflation America has ever experienced. And the coming inflationary crisis might be both more severe and longer than any such episode that has occurred in the past. How To Protect Yourself From the Coming Crisis There is really only one way to protect your hard- “Dollar debasement will doubtless trigger earned wealth in such a scenario, and that is to inflation. Over time, this will cause a buy and own tangible assets—and hold on to them flight from paper currencies to gold. I’ve tenaciously. already predicted gold at $3,000 within 30 months. I’ve heard other gold Gold is an obvious answer. For more than 5,000 analysts forecasting gold at $4,500 years, the value of gold has endured throughout within three years.

The economic and fiscal crisis that we are now facing has investment experts predicting new records for gold in the months and years ahead. “I served on the Gold Commission for eight or nine months in Congress, along But Isn’t Gold Near Its All-Time High? with fifteen other members.

  • 6. A Better Inflation Hedge Than Gold? Although most investors should own some gold, gold may not be the best inflation hedge in the years to come. Many prudent investors hold gold bullion for insurance or security purposes—a sort of hedge against crisis, inflation, and uncertainty. Gold has served in this role for thousands of years, but laws created by governments that have grown too big put this role in doubt today. Therefore, investors need a better hedge. Gold Confiscation: Can It Happen Again? Leading financial institutions collapsing. The value of the dollar in a freefall. Gold prices are soaring. These are the same the circumstances that led to the gold confiscation of 1933 The U.S. has had bans against, or financial disincentives for, the private ownership of gold in the past. This is one reason why the U.S. Government has reporting requirements for bullion transactions. In fact, America has actually seen four different gold confiscations, the last of which occurred during the Great Depression in 1933. From 1933 until 1974, U.S. citizens could not legally own gold. However, what few people realize is that when the freedom to own gold was restored in 1974, a provision of the Federal Reserve Act was retained that permitted the Secretary of the Treasury to require individuals to surrender their gold. The President’s gold This action would most likely be started by an Executive confiscation order Order from the president. Nothing in the legislation that specifically exempted “gold ended the forty-year ban against gold ownership changed coins having a recognized the fact that Congress continued to treat the private special value to collectors of ownership of gold as a privilege to be enjoyed at its rare and unusual coins.” discretion rather than as a right. In 1933, in an attempt to control the monetary and banking crisis associated with the Great Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, with Executive Order No. 6102, confiscated all privately owned gold in the United States. Gold confiscation was undertaken in the name of stabilizing America’s monetary system. Today, if it becomes necessary for the U.S. to bolster a collapsing dollar with gold, the Treasury no longer has enough gold to accomplish the task. When gold bullion was confiscated, the government compensated individuals with paper currency at the then official gold price. How would you like to accept a grossly devalued dollar, next year or the year after, when the government needs your gold? 949-488-9530 © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved Page 5 of 8
  • 7. A Crucial Exception To The Confiscation of Gold However, rare coins (defined as “coins having a recognized special value to collectors of rare and unusual coins") were exempt from government confiscation provisions, not due to any love of coin collectors, but because determining appropriate compensation, coin-by-coin, collector-by-collector, would have been an administrative nightmare and logistical impossibility. Twelve words provided the defensive blockade for coin owners: "nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." Since the confiscation of rare gold coins would be taking private property, “just compensation” would have to be paid. In other words, while it is relatively easy to confiscate gold, it is virtually impossible to confiscate rare coins. Not only do applicable laws expressly exempt rare coins from gold confiscation provisions, rare coins are private and do not require the filing of information returns with the Internal Revenue Service, as does gold bullion. RARE COINS: The Better Safe Haven That’s why, in times of crises such as hyperinflation or depression, it is far better to own numismatics—that is, rare coins—than gold bullion. To understand why this is so, you need to understand the market forces behind history’s most enduring collectible. Then, we will describe what we believe is the best possible way to invest in coins. And it’s not just our “opinion.” Our company actually owns more than $40 million worth of the precise kind of coins you need to own, that is, if protecting your wealth is of importance to you. Why Rare Coins? Because numismatic coins are not a fad. On the contrary, they’ve been collected for more than 2000 years. Because coins represent the very embodiment of the economic miracle America has brought to the world, they are a much sought after artifact of history. Because 100 million Americans collect coins, and there is constant upward pressure on the high end of the rare- coin market—where demand keeps growing and there simply are not enough coins to go around. 949-488-9530 © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved Page 6 of 8

In fact, high-quality coins are a “win-win-win” for investors today: Win #1: If inflation hits and the above scenario plays out, rare coins will outperform gold, just as they have over the past 35 years*, and they will not be subject to confiscation. Win #2: If by some miracle the Big Federal Inflation Budget (The Big FIB) turns the economy around and we return to unbridled prosperity, America’s 100 million coin collectors will drive up the prices of the most sought- after rarities. Win #3: Even in the worst-case scenario, where we lapse into a deflationary depression, wouldn’t you rather have your wealth preserved in an enduring, historic asset until normalcy returns? Rare coins have a history of providing handsome returns in virtually all periods of economic growth—inflationary and otherwise. This has been proven by an authoritative study conducted by Dr. Raymond Lombra of the economics department at Penn State. In his study, Professor Lombra examined the performance of various investments, including gold bullion and rare coins, over a quarter century, ending in 2007. Here are some of the conclusions in his study: During the 25-year period studied, rare coins were a better diversifier than gold for a portfolio of stocks and bonds. Rare coins achieved substantial gains even during periods when the price of gold fell. For example, from 1988-1990, rare coins appreciated more than 100%, while the price of gold fell from $500 to $360. The average annual return from rare coins was over 200% better than the average annual return on gold. The total return from rare coins in their best year was nearly 100% better than the return from gold in its best performing year. The total return from rare coins in their best three-year period was almost 100% better than the return from gold in its best three-year period. In fact, if history is any judge, the biggest question when it comes to the long-term performance of well-chosen rare coins is: 949-488-9530 © 2009 Rare Coin Wholesalers, All Rights Reserved Page 7 of 8
