Sometimes it is the size of a coin that determines how useful it is in an emergency. The 4 Florin Gold Gulden contains 2.91 g of pure gold. Among gold coins, it is a lightweight that allows values to be portioned finely. For your crisis protection, that is a real advantage, because in every situation you decide for yourself how much value you use.

The imperial double-headed eagle on the reverse

The product photo shows the reverse: a double-headed eagle with outspread wings, crowned and holding a sword and orb in its talons. Sword and orb are regarded as classic signs of imperial power. The Latin inscription means Austrian Empire, and the statement of value names both florins and francs. The other side of the coin shows Emperor Franz Joseph I. For collectors and investors alike, the coin thus combines a historical design with real precious metal.

Small, light and usable anywhere

With a fine weight of 2.91 g, the 4 Florin Gold Gulden is remarkably handy. For exchanging everyday goods in an emergency, small denominations of gold or silver are best suited. The coin accompanies you discreetly when travelling and is equally suitable for emergencies at home or far abroad. Several of these coins together form a reserve that can be used in parts as needed.

Gulden, florin and franc

The names on this coin tell a piece of European monetary history. Florin is another name for the gulden, and the well-known abbreviation fl. goes back to the Florentine gulden. The additional statement of value in francs reveals that the gold content corresponds to that of a 10-franc piece. In this way, the gold gulden links Austrian tradition with a standard that was familiar far beyond Austria.

Protection against currency devaluation

Paper money can lose purchasing power when confidence in a currency fades. Gold, by contrast, has an intrinsic value that does not depend on the decisions of a government, and it is a scarce good with a limited supply. As an inflation hedge and for the preservation of value over many years, the 4 Florin Gold Gulden is therefore a sensible addition, especially if you want to spread your wealth across many small units. For private investors in Germany, a gain on sale remains tax-free once the one-year holding period has expired.
