      Coins made of gold are typically 90% to 91.7% pure. Compared to pure gold, which is quite soft, alloying makes the coins far more resistant to wear. Most modern bullion coins are made of pure gold because they are unlikely to be used as regular currency in the future. Stamp and coin trader hold all the vast range of coins.
