Demand for gold has been predicted to remain high as a result of the problems in the worldwide economy.

According to Merit Financial, the precious metal is "a must" for anyone who wishes to build their portfolio, with investors of all sizes buying gold coins in the current climate.

The company explained that gold is a "hot commodity" and encouraged those wishing to make an investment to carry out research into the options that are available to them.

It suggested that owning physical gold is "crucial to portfolio diversification" and suggested that the best returns may come from numismatic coins.

Last week, Main Street recommended that consumers in the US buy gold in order to protect against an increasing risk of inflation as more and more money is injected into the market.

The portal noted that there is "always value" in the precious metal, regardless of what happens with currency.
