​
Volatility of Market: The success of an investment in coins is dependent in part upon extrinsic economic forces including supply, demand, international monetary conditions and inflation, or the expectation of inflation. The impact of these forces on the values of coins cannot be predicted with any certainty. Customer acknowledges that the coin market can be volatile and that coin prices may rise or fall over time and that past performance is no indication of future performance. Moreover, rare coins are not suitable investments for anyone seeking current income. Prosperity Gold Group shall not be liable for loss caused directly or indirectly by any exchange or market ruling, government restriction, or any “force majeure” (e.g. Acts of God, fire; war, insurrection, riot; communications or power failure) or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Prosperity Gold Group.

Customer expressly acknowledges and agrees that Customer has been advised to seek independent tax advice and that Prosperity Gold Group has made no representations regarding the tax impact of Coins held as an investment in an IRA.
​
No Refunds Except as to Counterfeit Coin(s): Prosperity Gold Group shall not be obliged to accept returns of any coin(s) for refund other than counterfeit coins returned in their original holders within ninety (90) days of purchase.

​
Disclaimer of Express Warranties: Prosperity Gold Group warrants that the nature and precious metals content of the purchased item(s) are as described and are genuine, but no other express warranty is made in respect to any purchased item(s). Grades and descriptions of rare coins are opinions only, not statements of fact or guarantees, and are based on standards and interpretations that can and do change over time. Prosperity Gold Group uses contemporary grading standards and interpretations to grade coins, or relies upon the opinions of independent grading services such as the Professional Coin Grading Service, Inc., Numismatic Guaranty Corporation of America and ANACS. Prosperity Gold Group does not guarantee that the coins it sells will achieve the same grades from Prosperity Gold Group itself or from any independent grading service in the future.
​
Performance: Performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investments in precious metals will fluctuate in value, when redeemed they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Investors may lose value at time of redemption. Before risking your retirement funds, you should consult with qualified legal and tax adviser to obtain a second opinion.
​
Diversification: Although every situation may differ, Prosperity Gold Group believes precious metals should be part of 7-18% of an individual`s investment portfolio. All coins and bars can go down and up in value. Investing in physical gold and silver may not be suitable for every investor. Rare coins, semi-rare coins and/or Bullion should be considered a long-term investment. All above listed may bear a bid and ask spread of an industry average 28% to 2% on Bullion, numismatic items and/or scrap precious metals. The buy and sell/bid and ask price/quote may fluctuate and are determined by numerous factors such as, but not limited to: item(s), rarity, futures price, demand, quality, open interest and spot price fluctuation. The rarer the item(s), the thinner traded it is, making the bid and ask price quote larger and wider. Which is why Certified & Graded coins are not recommended for investors looking to capitalize in the direct move of the corresponding spot market. Although, we cannot make any warranties and/or guarantees that one asset will guarantee a larger profit or any profit upon liquidation, it is Prosperity Gold Group’s general opinion that Rare Certified coins are an investment asset to Avoid.
​
