Liquidity: Gold coins are generally easy to buy and sell, providing liquidity when needed. Especially graded examples, which are more easily traded.

Tangible asset: Unlike stocks or digital assets, gold coins are tangible, and some investors prefer physical ownership. Especially when there is mistrust of financial institutions.
