Krueggerands and Eagles aren't pure gold, about 22k. Maple leafs are 4 nines, Koalas and Pandas three nines. I think you may want something with clearly marked metal content in a familiar size : 1 ounce, 1/2 ounce, 1/4 ounce, etc. Maples, Eagles, Koalas, Kruegerrands AND Pandas are marked this way. The newer Austrian Philharmonics are in standard sizes of 1/10, 1/4, etc. Older Phillharmonics have values of 0.44 oz.

Contrast with Wyoming: 1. No sales tax. 2. Platinum too expensive, nobody buying platinum coins. 3. Palladium relatively unknown. Dealers only seen palladium maples twice. 4. Best seller -- bags of US junk silver (pre 1965 i think), $1000 face has 715 oz of silver in it. 5. Gold eagles and maple leafs most popular gold coins. 6. Krugerand less popular and less expensive because of it.
