When to Invest

K-Score Portfolios are designed for Accredited Investors who desire to offset riskier components of their investment portfolio with lower risk instruments.  Situations where a K-Score Portfolio may provide special value include:

Exposure to Interest Rate Sensitive Investments

Research has demonstrated that rare US coins perform exceptionally well during times of inflation, deflation and low inflation.  They may provide balance for investment portfolios that contain:

  • Bonds
  • Notes
  • Preferred Stock
  • Mortgages

Reducing Portfolio Volatility

A 62-year study of rare coin performance published in the Journal of Financial Planning found that the standard deviation of returns for rare coins was lower than six of the seven equity groups studied.  Rare US coins may offer value to investors who hold:

  • Private Equity Investments
  • Mid and Small Cap Stocks

Desire for Alternative Tangible Asset Value Investments

The long-term stability, growth and volatility-reducing properties of certified rare US coins offer an alternative to more traditional investments for those who are:

  • Transitioning out of one tangible asset class (such as real estate)
  • Building a long-term investment portfolio for trusts and estates

As a Hedge Against Long-Term Equity Market Volatility

On a ten-year moving average basis, rare US coin returns are negatively correlated with the DJIA (-0.68) and may provide a role as a hedge in:

  • Pension Plans
  • Qualified Benefit Plans
  • Endowments
  • Trusts and Estates

 

As with any tangible asset acquisition, consult with a qualified financial advisor before purchasing a K-Score Portfolio.  Past performance of rare US coins and K-Score portfolios may not be indicative of future performance.  Many factors including ongoing collector/investor interest and general economic conditions may impact rare coin values. Numismatic Investment Corporation does not guarnatee future results. Investments in rare coins and K-Score Portolios may lose value..

The data ... suggests (that rare US coins are) a highly attractive complementary asset category that even with a small allocation provides good diversification for a well-diversified portfolio, and whose returns look impressive when compared against the fixed-income category and as an inflation hedge.
