\n as money since 560 B.C., when King Croesus of Lydia created a gold coin in his own

\n Gold is an ideal foundation for a diversified financial plan because the price of
\n gold often appreciates in response to factors that reduce the value of mere paper
\n assets. Among the many factors and events that can cause the price of gold to rise
\n are: increased industrial and investment demand for gold; bank failures; federal
\n budget deficits; rising inflation or the expectation of rising inflation<\/a>; devaluation
\n of the dollar and other currency-related crises; increases in the price of other
\n commodities; stock and bond market collapses; and international tensions. <\/p>\n

\n forms, such as coins and bars. But when considering what to acquire, you won?t be
\n overwhelmed by the number of choices. There are basically two categories:
