$3 Gold Indian Princess Head Coins - 1856, 1878, 1874, RARE 1854, 1870-S. The three-dollar piece was a United States coin produced from 1854 to 1889. Its value was intended to tie in with the postal system. At the time, a first class postage stamp was worth 3¢, and such stamps were often sold in sheets of one hundred stamps. Therefore, the three-dollar piece was exactly enough money to purchase a sheet of stamps. The Treasury Department also withdrew its fractional currency issues starting in the late 1870's, of which there was a 3¢ denomination. A $3 gold coin would have helped facilitate this for those desiring gold in exchange for their 3¢ coins. Despite these potential uses, the coin was minted in small quantities.
Authorized by the Act of February 21, 1853, the coin was designed by James B. Longacre. The obverse depicts a representation of LIBERTY wearing a headdress of an Indian princess and the reverse a wreath of corn, cotton, and tobacco. The three-dollar piece was .900 gold and .100 copper for a total weight of 5.015 grams. It had a diameter of 20.5 mm with a reeded edge. Quantities were minted in Philadelphia each year of production, as well as in Dahlonega, New Orleans, and San Francisco in certain years. Proofs were officially recorded as being minted at Philadelphia from 1859 to 1889, and only proofs were minted in 1875 and 1876. Proofs of dates prior to 1859 are also known, including extremely rare branch-mint proofs. The total quantity of coins minted each year ranges from 2 for the 1870-S (of which only one has been confirmed to collectors) to 138,618 for the 1854. Today, any specimen has a value of at least several hundred dollars, and the most valuable is the unique 1870-S, currently (2007) valued at $4,000,000 in AU-50.

PAMP SUISSE PLATINUM BARS. Platinum is a heavy hard silvery metallic element, a precious metal used in jewellery, coins, chemical engineering, and a catalyst used in industry and for car exhausts. Platinum is closely related to five other metals, palladium, ruthenium, rhodium, osmium, and iridium. Collectively these six are known as the platinum group metals, often referred to as PGMs. They all have slightly similar atomic structures, leading to some similarity in chemical and mechanical properties, although there are, of course, many important differences.

Platinum Bars. Platinum (pronounced /ˈplætɨnəm/) is a chemical element with the chemical symbol Pt and an atomic number of 78. Its name is derived from the Spanish term platina del Pinto, which is literally translated into "little silver of the Pinto River." It is in Group 10 of the periodic table of elements. A heavy, malleable, ductile, precious, gray-white transition metal, platinum is resistant to corrosion and occurs in some nickel and copper ores along with some native deposits. Platinum is used in jewelry, laboratory equipment, electrical contacts, dentistry, and automobile emissions control devices. Platinum bullion has the ISO currency code of XPT. As of December 23th, 2008, Platinum was worth $845.00 per troy ounce (approximately $27.17 per gram).

Silver Bullion Bars.
Silver, like other precious metals, may be used as an investment. For more than four thousand years, silver has been regarded as a form of money and store of value. However, since the end of the silver standard, silver has lost its role as legal tender in the United States. (It continued to be used in coinage until 1964, when the intrinsic value of the silver overtook the coins' face values.)
