From December 4 to 12, the customary autumn sale session of Pandolfini's Time-based numismatics will be staged. More than one hundred lots will be offered, including many multiples, offered according to a careful selection of Italian and international coins and medals exclusively in gold called Aurea. Eighty euros per gram and more: this is the fixing that has registered the sale of the noble yellow metal in the last month, in conspicuous and continuous growth now for several years, making it appear undisputedly the safe haven asset par excellence and synonymous with security. Not even the economic crises and Covid-19 have shaken the notion that the blond metal is a staple and safe reference point in the market since, over the past two centuries, it has maintained its value unchanged even against the rate of inflation. Metallic coins and medals, in particular, lend themselves well to combining this purpose with that of collecting pleasure, thanks in part to their small size, which makes them easily stored and transportable objects. Their affordability also, thanks to the varied ad hoc offerings in single and multiple lots, make them attractive to all pockets of those who want to diversify their portfolios.
