As a good gold starter coin I recommend either the $20 Saint Gaudens in MS-63/64 for $500 to $650; or the $20 Liberty in MS-62/63 for $500 to $700.
The most common date Saints are the 1924 & 1927. The 1904 Liberty is most common for that series.

The Saint. Appeals to collectors, investors, speculators, and the general public. You won't impress your friends with a VF one dollar gold piece as you will with a choice UNC Saint.
