Just think, back in the gold rush of the 1800's people took extreme chances on finding something that was only heresy and had little rock hard evidence of its existence. Today we have technology that enables us to find where gold most likely is. There is more research going on to find gold in mass quantities and less fooling around and digging in the dirt.

Companies such as Cannon Exploration Inc. are using their advanced technologies to find gold in Canada. On the 14th of April 2010 they even confirmed through their samples of the soil that there is indeed gold on their property. Imagine investing in a company such as this. Right now their shares cost only $0.0018. When this company hits big their shares could easily be $3.00. If you bought 100,000 shares for $180, and the stock increased by over 16000%. you would have a profit of $300,000. This is just a low estimate at that.

It is predicated that the gold value for the second quarter of 2010 will reach over £775,00 or $1,200 per ounce. Even if you were to invest in the bigger companies that sell their shares for £750,00 or $1160 you can easily expect to make a profit, considering the rising price for gold. If you like owning genuine gold, if you enjoy been able to hold it in you hand and feel the weight of your gold then it is far better to invest in half sovereigns, full sovereigns or gold bullion coins.

Hopefully the crash of 2007 will be nothing more than a faint memory. The economy is picking its self up off the ground and brushing off the dust, now is the time to invest! It does not matter if your a longer term investor or simply a coin collector, gold sovereigns are always a good investment. The price of gold has never gone down (and is very unlikely to ever go down) because there is a limited supply, it is a practical item, a great way to store wealth and a highly used material in many electronics.
