Throughout all time, gold has always remained the
stable standard of wealth and stability.
CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE
CGE was built from a
experienced team of seasoned
numismatists who were
frustrated with how tangible
assets and rare coin were being
mass-marketed to the public
through slick television
commercials, aggressive
telemarketing, and misleading
Internet promotions... where
the public consumer was being
"sold" in purchasing over-priced
coins at high commissions, with
little to no customer support.
Classic Gold Exchange wanted
to offer the public a fresh, new
approach to wealth
management through tangible
assets, that’s all about
transparency, accountability,
and client ownership of their
finances.
At Classic Gold Exchange
questions are encouraged, and
answers are straightforward.
There is no question we won't
answer, and no answer we
won't support.
FINANCIAL CLIMATE
We are living in one of the most exciting, yet challenging times in
human history. In today's ever changing global environment, what
we have learned from the past may have created financial security
for us today, but it may not be sufficient enough to keep us
comfortable tomorrow, yet get us to where we wish to be in the
future.
In today's ever-changing world, we either can innovate or
evaporate... and this is especially true in our financial markets.
With the onset of economic geopolitical concerns, and a declining
dollar, coupled with global terrorism threats, a well diversified
investment portfolio in tangible assets makes good financial sense
in today's ever changing world.
HISTORICAL FACTORS
Historically, there have been 8 primary factors that have led to
rising prices for tangible asset investments:
1. High inflation, or the fear of high inflation
2. A decline in the value of the U.S. dollar or other major currencies
3. Bear markets or volatility in stocks
4. High interest rates
5. Oil and Gas price shocks
6. Crisis in the banking sector
7. International loan defaults and other debt crises
8. Geopolitical tensions and crisis
As we know, several of these factors are taking place right now.
Consequently many experts are predicting much higher metals
prices where tangible assets will perform their financial insurance
role.
We are taught to "Hope For The Best, But Prepare For The Worst."
However “Hope” is not a good financial strategy… Hope isn’t
something to base your financial future on.
The will to win is worthless without the will to prepare. Today’s
preparation determines tomorrow’s achievement.

In today's world of financial market volatility and
economic uncertainty, investing without proper
diversification can be disastrous.
TANGIBLE ASSETS
There are a variety of tangible asset
investments that can provide
diversifying benefits to your overall
financial plan.
Though the price of tangible asset
investments can be volatile in the
short-term, they have maintained
their value over the long-term,
providing excellent protection
against the decline of the
purchasing power of paper money.
Moreover there have been periods
when tangible assets have
outperformed virtually all other
investments.
Whatever your goals, objectives and
financial circumstances, Classic Gold
Exchange recommends you take full
advantage of the various tangible
asset options available to assure
that you maintain and expand your
wealth in the years to come.

NEED TO KNOWS
Savvy investors are increasingly using tangible assets as part of
their financial plan to provide a solid counterweight for paper
assets. It is imperative that you diversify your investments to
preserve your wealth and even profit in all economic, geopolitical
and financial market environments.
No one knows with certainty what the future holds, however,
all investors share a common goal: financial security.
Whether or not you achieve financial security depends on the
success of your financial plan. Success in a financial plan in
today’s world means true diversification across asset class, not
just across different kinds of stocks and bonds. To achieve true
diversification, investors need to deploy a portion of their wealth
into alternatives, notably tangible assets.
Tangible assets are financial insurance. They have historically
provided protection against setbacks suffered by stocks, bonds
and the dollar. It is often said that investors should own tangible
assets and hope that they don't go up in value. Why? Because
rising tangible asset prices often mean other investments in a
portfolio are declining. Tangible assets give investors alternatives
when the going gets rough.
In reality, a properly diversified tangible asset portfolio includes
holdings that can and do rise, no matter what stocks and bonds
are doing. Nevertheless, there is some truth to the adage that
tangible assets perform best when paper investments are weak.
Tangible assets provide the portfolio diversification that protects
your wealth when other investments are suffering. The
conditions that make tangible assets rise are the same conditions
that throw the paper assets into turmoil. That is why tangible
assets serve so well as financial insurance, however they can be
much more than just a form of insurance, they can also help in
accelerating wealth.
Tangible assets can be high performance investments in their
own right, offering substantial potential for growth of capital.

Follow two simple rules:
1. Don't Pay Too Much
2. Buy Truly Rare Coins
FOUR AREAS OF THE U.S. COIN MARKET
Ever since the signing of the Coinage Act in 1792, there have been
many different coin types produced by the U.S. Mint, that fall into
four basic areas of the U.S. Coin Market.
• Modern Bullion Coins (Protection)
• Collector & Commemorative Coins (Satisfaction)
• Pre-1933 Gold Coins (Diversification)
• Investment Quality Coins (Acceleration)
Each area provides benefits to the investor and collector depending
on their financial goals and collecting objectives.
The most commonly known areas are modern bullion and
collectable coins because of the media hype and commercials
about gold and silver coins.
Modern Bullion Coins can be protection as a hedge against
inflation, and have little to no numismatic value beyond the spot
price.
Collector Coins are purchased purely for customer satisfaction
and enjoyment and are not recommended for investment
purposes.
The two lesser known areas to explore are Pre-1933 gold coins and
Investment Grade Coins which have a fixed limited supply and high
market demand.
Pre-1933 Gold Coins are used for portfolio diversification in
tangible assets, and have numismatic value beyond the spot price.
Investment Quality Coins are good for wealth acceleration, and
are considered excellent investments as they have a limited supply
with increasing demand.
Not all coins are created equal and knowing the difference between
high-grade investment-quality coins and ordinary collectible coins
is essential to maximize profit potential.
Classic Gold Exchange focuses on
Pre-1933 Gold Coins and Investment Quality Coins

CGE's business values are based on providing an
outstanding array of unique benefits and services
to match the exceptional tangible asset
investments that we place with our investors.
PRIMARY PROFIT PROPERTIES
Rare investment grade coins have 5
primary profit properties.
Rarity
Understanding true rarity is key to
successful investing, which only
comes from years of experience in
numismatics. A great rare coin is in
high demand due to small mintages,
or limited numbers of survivors.
Value
Great coins undoubtedly show
superiority through their market
demand and value; however the
spectrum for rare coins can run from
the thousands of dollars to the
millions of dollars each.
Quality
The vast majorities of great coins
are in excellent condition…
standardized coin grading from the
two top tier certified graders (PCGS
& NGC) takes the guess work out of
personal opinions.
Beauty
The aesthetics involved in a coins’
greatness are apparent… The
intricacy of design, color and overall
beauty, determine value and appeal
for collectors and investors alike.
History
Great coins have great stories tied
to them... Moments of history are
preserved in unique tangible coins
you can hold in your hands. Rare
coin pedigrees historically lead the
market in price appreciation over
time.
CGE BUSINESS VALUES
Integrity
Integrity should be first and foremost for any business. Without
trust and honor, none of the other qualities and properties of a
business have any true meaning. Integrity is about being true to

are here to serve our client's needs and provide the answers to all

our experts have over a century of experience in tangible asset
investments. There is no substitute for experience. Experience is
about the importance of learning the lessons of roads travelled
and of passing on those lessons to our clients to profit from.
Education
CGE is committed to investor education. The University of Rare
Coins online campus is our commitment to industry education.
Education is about making sure that our CGE clients understand
what they are buying or selling, and the historical significance of
those items.
Transparency

customer relationship software system, which tracks purchase
portfolios, to support our clients in making rapid and well-
informed decisions. Transparency is about openness. It is about

of their rare coin investments.

Because of their rarity, security and privacy
advantages, semi-numismatic, Pre-1933 coins are
sometimes referred to as “Bullion with Benefits.”
THE PRE-33 GOLD STORY
The US Mint issued gold coins
from 1795-1933. Circulating gold
ended during the Depression.
In 1933 President Franklin
Roosevelt made it illegal to own
gold. He ordered all circulating
gold coins recalled and melted.
Past Lessons, Future Warnings
Over the last four thousand years,
the only period in which humanity
has not consistently based its
currency in metal, specifically
gold, is the last 40 years.
We were on the "Gold Standard"
backing every dollar in gold from
1792 to 1971, when President
Nixon announced that the U.S.
would no longer officially trade
dollars for gold, abolishing the
"Gold Standard" to help pay for
the Vietnam War.
Gold went from $35 at Nixon’s
announcement to $800 by 1980,
and the Treasury Department
cranked-up the printing presses.
Fast forward to today, now we are
over $17 Trillion in debt, just
backed by the Government's
word, with no end in sight
(quantitative easing).
Pre-33 Gold is a great investment
because it has a limited supply
with high demand, it is a private,
portable, solid liquid asset.
GOLD IS REAL MONEY!
PRE-1933 GOLD COINS
Pre-33 gold is the perfect bridge between bullion and rare coins...
Semi-numismatic U.S. Gold Coins are not Rare-Date Coins, but
instead their Common-Date counterparts from the same era with
the same designs.
The difference is that coins from certain years or mint marks are
very scarce with “Rare-Dates” verses “Common-Dates” with high
mintages or survival rates.
Why Pre-1933 Gold?
Pre-33 coins are another form of gold with advantages beyond
Bullion.
• Undervalued Asset Class With Global Market Acceptance
• Segmented Profit Niche With Low Prices & High Returns
• Diversification To Hedge Against a Declining Dollar
• Physical Tangible Assets That Provides Immediate Liquidity
• Combats Economic Global Geopolitical Concerns
• Protects Against a Deepening Euro Zone Threat Crisis
• Large European Supply of U.S. Pre-1933 Raw Gold Coins
• Top-Tier Authentication Grading & Certification (NGC/PCGS)
• Unique Assets Class With High Growth Potential
What Pre-1933 Gold?
Pre-1933 Gold was minted from 1795 to 1933... the United States
produced gold coinage for circulation as solid foundation of
commerce and trade in the early days through the early 20th
Century.
The U.S. Mint issued its first gold coins in 1795… Over the next
138 years the mint produced a variety of gold coins across six
different denominations.
• $1 Liberty, Indian Princess
• $2.5 Capped Classic, Liberty, Indian
• $3 Indian Princess
• $5 Capped, Classic, Liberty, Indian
• $10 Capped, Liberty, Indian
• $20 Liberty, Saint
Surviving Pre-33 gold is
fixed at an extremely
limited supply with an
increased demand.
It's non-reportable, and
can't be confiscated.
It has profit potential
beyond spot price.

  • 1. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 1 of 16 Numismatic Portfolios & Managed Accounts An Innovative Approach to Wealth Management Through Tangible Asset Investing
  • 2. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 2 of 16 Throughout all time, gold has always remained the stable standard of wealth and stability. CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE CGE was built from a experienced team of seasoned numismatists who were frustrated with how tangible assets and rare coin were being mass-marketed to the public through slick television commercials, aggressive telemarketing, and misleading Internet promotions... where the public consumer was being "sold" in purchasing over-priced coins at high commissions, with little to no customer support. Classic Gold Exchange wanted to offer the public a fresh, new approach to wealth management through tangible assets, that’s all about transparency, accountability, and client ownership of their finances. At Classic Gold Exchange questions are encouraged, and answers are straightforward. There is no question we won't answer, and no answer we won't support. FINANCIAL CLIMATE We are living in one of the most exciting, yet challenging times in human history. In today's ever changing global environment, what we have learned from the past may have created financial security for us today, but it may not be sufficient enough to keep us comfortable tomorrow, yet get us to where we wish to be in the future. In today's ever-changing world, we either can innovate or evaporate... and this is especially true in our financial markets. With the onset of economic geopolitical concerns, and a declining dollar, coupled with global terrorism threats, a well diversified investment portfolio in tangible assets makes good financial sense in today's ever changing world. HISTORICAL FACTORS Historically, there have been 8 primary factors that have led to rising prices for tangible asset investments: 1. High inflation, or the fear of high inflation 2. A decline in the value of the U.S. dollar or other major currencies 3. Bear markets or volatility in stocks 4. High interest rates 5. Oil and Gas price shocks 6. Crisis in the banking sector 7. International loan defaults and other debt crises 8. Geopolitical tensions and crisis As we know, several of these factors are taking place right now. Consequently many experts are predicting much higher metals prices where tangible assets will perform their financial insurance role. We are taught to "Hope For The Best, But Prepare For The Worst." However “Hope” is not a good financial strategy… Hope isn’t something to base your financial future on. The will to win is worthless without the will to prepare. Today’s preparation determines tomorrow’s achievement.
  • 3. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 3 of 16 In today's world of financial market volatility and economic uncertainty, investing without proper diversification can be disastrous. TANGIBLE ASSETS There are a variety of tangible asset investments that can provide diversifying benefits to your overall financial plan. Though the price of tangible asset investments can be volatile in the short-term, they have maintained their value over the long-term, providing excellent protection against the decline of the purchasing power of paper money. Moreover there have been periods when tangible assets have outperformed virtually all other investments. Whatever your goals, objectives and financial circumstances, Classic Gold Exchange recommends you take full advantage of the various tangible asset options available to assure that you maintain and expand your wealth in the years to come. TANGIBLE ASSET COIN MARKET Modern Coins Collectable Coins Pre-1933 Gold Coins Investment Coins NEED TO KNOWS Savvy investors are increasingly using tangible assets as part of their financial plan to provide a solid counterweight for paper assets. It is imperative that you diversify your investments to preserve your wealth and even profit in all economic, geopolitical and financial market environments. No one knows with certainty what the future holds, however, all investors share a common goal: financial security. Whether or not you achieve financial security depends on the success of your financial plan. Success in a financial plan in today’s world means true diversification across asset class, not just across different kinds of stocks and bonds. To achieve true diversification, investors need to deploy a portion of their wealth into alternatives, notably tangible assets. Tangible assets are financial insurance. They have historically provided protection against setbacks suffered by stocks, bonds and the dollar. It is often said that investors should own tangible assets and hope that they don't go up in value. Why? Because rising tangible asset prices often mean other investments in a portfolio are declining. Tangible assets give investors alternatives when the going gets rough. In reality, a properly diversified tangible asset portfolio includes holdings that can and do rise, no matter what stocks and bonds are doing. Nevertheless, there is some truth to the adage that tangible assets perform best when paper investments are weak. Tangible assets provide the portfolio diversification that protects your wealth when other investments are suffering. The conditions that make tangible assets rise are the same conditions that throw the paper assets into turmoil. That is why tangible assets serve so well as financial insurance, however they can be much more than just a form of insurance, they can also help in accelerating wealth. Tangible assets can be high performance investments in their own right, offering substantial potential for growth of capital.

We provide 24/7 online access to our secure, password protected portal for total transparency. Follow two simple rules: 1. Don't Pay Too Much 2. Buy Truly Rare Coins FOUR AREAS OF THE U.S. COIN MARKET Ever since the signing of the Coinage Act in 1792, there have been many different coin types produced by the U.S. Mint, that fall into four basic areas of the U.S. Coin Market. • Modern Bullion Coins (Protection) • Collector & Commemorative Coins (Satisfaction) • Pre-1933 Gold Coins (Diversification) • Investment Quality Coins (Acceleration) Each area provides benefits to the investor and collector depending on their financial goals and collecting objectives. The most commonly known areas are modern bullion and collectable coins because of the media hype and commercials about gold and silver coins. Modern Bullion Coins can be protection as a hedge against inflation, and have little to no numismatic value beyond the spot price. Collector Coins are purchased purely for customer satisfaction and enjoyment and are not recommended for investment purposes. The two lesser known areas to explore are Pre-1933 gold coins and Investment Grade Coins which have a fixed limited supply and high market demand. Pre-1933 Gold Coins are used for portfolio diversification in tangible assets, and have numismatic value beyond the spot price. Investment Quality Coins are good for wealth acceleration, and are considered excellent investments as they have a limited supply with increasing demand. Not all coins are created equal and knowing the difference between high-grade investment-quality coins and ordinary collectible coins is essential to maximize profit potential. Classic Gold Exchange focuses on Pre-1933 Gold Coins and Investment Quality Coins
  • 5. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 5 of 16 CGE's business values are based on providing an outstanding array of unique benefits and services to match the exceptional tangible asset investments that we place with our investors. PRIMARY PROFIT PROPERTIES Rare investment grade coins have 5 primary profit properties. Rarity Understanding true rarity is key to successful investing, which only comes from years of experience in numismatics. A great rare coin is in high demand due to small mintages, or limited numbers of survivors. Value Great coins undoubtedly show superiority through their market demand and value; however the spectrum for rare coins can run from the thousands of dollars to the millions of dollars each. Quality The vast majorities of great coins are in excellent condition… standardized coin grading from the two top tier certified graders (PCGS & NGC) takes the guess work out of personal opinions. Beauty The aesthetics involved in a coins’ greatness are apparent… The intricacy of design, color and overall beauty, determine value and appeal for collectors and investors alike. History Great coins have great stories tied to them... Moments of history are preserved in unique tangible coins you can hold in your hands. Rare coin pedigrees historically lead the market in price appreciation over time. CGE BUSINESS VALUES Integrity Integrity should be first and foremost for any business.

  • 6. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 6 of 16 Because of their rarity, security and privacy advantages, semi-numismatic, Pre-1933 coins are sometimes referred to as “Bullion with Benefits.” THE PRE-33 GOLD STORY The US Mint issued gold coins from 1795-1933. Circulating gold ended during the Depression. In 1933 President Franklin Roosevelt made it illegal to own gold. He ordered all circulating gold coins recalled and melted. Past Lessons, Future Warnings Over the last four thousand years, the only period in which humanity has not consistently based its currency in metal, specifically gold, is the last 40 years. We were on the "Gold Standard" backing every dollar in gold from 1792 to 1971, when President Nixon announced that the U.S. would no longer officially trade dollars for gold, abolishing the "Gold Standard" to help pay for the Vietnam War. Gold went from $35 at Nixon’s announcement to $800 by 1980, and the Treasury Department cranked-up the printing presses. Fast forward to today, now we are over $17 Trillion in debt, just backed by the Government's word, with no end in sight (quantitative easing). Pre-33 Gold is a great investment because it has a limited supply with high demand, it is a private, portable, solid liquid asset. GOLD IS REAL MONEY! PRE-1933 GOLD COINS Pre-33 gold is the perfect bridge between bullion and rare coins... Semi-numismatic U.S. Gold Coins are not Rare-Date Coins, but instead their Common-Date counterparts from the same era with the same designs. The difference is that coins from certain years or mint marks are very scarce with “Rare-Dates” verses “Common-Dates” with high mintages or survival rates. Why Pre-1933 Gold? Pre-33 coins are another form of gold with advantages beyond Bullion. • Undervalued Asset Class With Global Market Acceptance • Segmented Profit Niche With Low Prices & High Returns • Diversification To Hedge Against a Declining Dollar • Physical Tangible Assets That Provides Immediate Liquidity • Combats Economic Global Geopolitical Concerns • Protects Against a Deepening Euro Zone Threat Crisis • Large European Supply of U.S. Pre-1933 Raw Gold Coins • Top-Tier Authentication Grading & Certification (NGC/PCGS) • Unique Assets Class With High Growth Potential What Pre-1933 Gold? Pre-1933 Gold was minted from 1795 to 1933... the United States produced gold coinage for circulation as solid foundation of commerce and trade in the early days through the early 20th Century. The U.S. Mint issued its first gold coins in 1795… Over the next 138 years the mint produced a variety of gold coins across six different denominations. • $1 Liberty, Indian Princess • $2.5 Capped Classic, Liberty, Indian • $3 Indian Princess • $5 Capped, Classic, Liberty, Indian • $10 Capped, Liberty, Indian • $20 Liberty, Saint Surviving Pre-33 gold is fixed at an extremely limited supply with an increased demand. It's non-reportable, and can't be confiscated. It has profit potential beyond spot price.
  • 7. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 7 of 16 Serious investors should invest in the ultra-rare numismatic market for maximum profit appreciation. ULTRA-RARE U.S. COINS Because not all rare coins are created equal, serious rare coin investors choose to focus only on the most valuable of all rare coins… those it has defined as “investment quality coins”. Investment grade coins have a track record, and are uniquely appropriate for investors who are looking for a substantial return on their investment. These coins have the greatest potential for future price performance and are characterized by a number of factors that include: • Past Performance • Precious Metal Content • Historical Significance • Artistic Beauty Investment quality coins constitute approximately 25% of The United States rare coin market. INVESTMENT QUALITY COINS Investment grade coins have outperformed stocks and bonds over the last 25 years, realizing more than a 300% ROI in the last decade. Why Rare Coins? There are many good reasons to invest in the U.S. Rare Coin Market. • A multi-billion dollar industry • Unrestricted, private asset class • Private, Portable & Liquid asset • Fixed supply, increased Demand • 70+ years of market performance • Tangible diversification • Third-party grading and certification • Electronic trading platforms What Rare Coins? There are many denominations, coin types, and rare dates that qualify as an investment quality coins. Here are a few of the best to consider. • Early United States Mint Coinage 1972-1836 • Select Proof and Mint State Coinage 1837-1891 Early Type • Proof Gold Coinage 1915 and Earlier • Rare-Date U.S. Gold Coinage from the 19th & 20th Centuries • Select Proof & Mint State Barber Coinage 1892-1915 • Select Proof Morgan Silver Dollars 1878-1921 • Select U.S. Territorial & Pattern coinage • Any "Greatest 100" Pedigreed coinage* Historical Rare Coin Returns Investing in “The100 Greatest U.S. Coins” would return a value of… • 50 years = 19,701% • 30 years = 1,413% • 8 years = 157% *Source: "The 100 Greatest U.S. Coins," 3rd Edition By Jeff Garrett (Whitman Publishing, 2008) Updated May, 2011 by leading rare coin Numismatists
  • 8. NUMISMATIC PORTFOLIOS MANAGED ACCOUNTS 800-976-0013 CLASSIC GOLD EXCHANGE Page 8 of 16 When deciding on the investment in a particular asset class, you should weigh whether the risk is worth the reward you will receive.
