Father’s Day is coming and what better way to show your dad how much he means to you than handing him a zillion bucks?
Crazy, you say? You may not have a lot of ready cash on hand, but you’ll be surprised at how little it takes to get your hands on a few million dollars…Zimbabwe dollars, at least.
When Just a Million Won’t Do
Your dad’s worth way more than a million to you and what better way to show it than with a crisp 100 million dollar bill? That’s just one of many ways a gift of collectible and novelty coins and currency can show how much Dad means to you this Father’s Day.
A genuine trillion-dollar note is guaranteed to bring a smile to Dad’s face, even if it’s not worth much more than the paper it’s printed on. And a real gold or silver coin or bar will bring a twinkle to his eye.
Gold is Great
There’s nothing quite like real gold, and a Gold American Eagle makes a memorable gift. This beautiful coin features Lady Liberty walking confidently against the sun’s rays. The reverse shows a bald eagle in flight carrying an olive branch to his nest where his mate awaits with their young. It’s a perfect image of how much Dad has meant to his family.
Gold American Eagle coins are available in multiple sizes and grades to suit almost any budget.
Silver is Sentimental
Less expensive but equally beautiful, U.S. and international silver coins come in a wide variety of sizes and designs. The 1-ounce American Silver Eagle coin has the same Walking Liberty depicted on the Gold Eagle on its face and a majestic bald eagle design on its reverse. These coins can be purchased loose or in attractive U.S. Mint gift boxes.
Bullion is Beautiful, Too
Coins of any type have numismatic, or collectible, worth in addition to their intrinsic metal value. But private mints make bullion coins and bars that are simply certified amounts of gold, silver, platinum, or palladium with no collectible value other than their worth as pure precious metals. While there is some processing and handling cost added, these items are generally available at very low markups over the metal’s spot price. US Mint bullion coins are also available through private dealers.
And whether your dad stalks big game, bad guys, or werewolves, he’s bound to get a kick out of pure silver bullets. These replica 45 caliber Colt automatic rounds are one full ounce of .999 fine silver and make great conversation pieces.
