Atlanta Gold & Coin Buyers extended Memorial Day wishes to its customers and prospective customers when this article was published. The company also expressed particular appreciation for servicemen and women and for their service and sacrifice.

When this article was originally published, Memorial Day specials were widely being promoted, and Atlanta Gold & Coin reported having several specials of its own. The original article introduced the following list as coins being sold at discounted rates from its already industry-leading prices.
- 40% silver coins – Many people may not realize that Kennedy half dollars struck from 1965 – 1970 contain 40% silver. Because these pieces were not at the front of mind for most buyers and held less silver than the better-known 90% silver coins, they could be obtained at a discount. The article characterized 40% silver coins as one of the lower-cost ways to invest in silver.
- 90% silver coins – At the time of publication, Atlanta Gold & Coin reported having 90% silver coins—dimes, quarters, and halves—in stock and offering them at discounted Memorial Day-special rates. The article said that 90% silver coins, together with American silver eagles, remained the most popular methods for investing in silver coins. It also reported a limited supply on hand at that time and urged readers to act quickly.
- American silver eagles – As noted above, the original article described 90% silver coins and American silver eagles as the most popular U.S. silver-coin investments. At the time of publication, Atlanta Gold & Coin said that, like its 90% silver-coin inventory, its American silver eagle supply was limited and was being offered at reduced rates; readers were invited then to contact the company that day to reserve coins.
- Canadian silver maple leaf coins – The article described Canadian silver maple leaf coins as second only to American silver eagles and 90% silver coins in demand and popularity. It characterized them as widely recognized, liquid coins that could be traded readily regardless of location. As with the other items noted above, the original article reported that Atlanta Gold & Coin was selling Canadian silver maple leaf coins that day at a reduced Memorial Day-special rate.
The original article said the offers above represented only a small portion of the coins Atlanta Gold & Coin had in stock at the time of publication. It also stated that the company purchased a broad range of coins and currency, and presented Atlanta Gold & Coin Buyers as its preferred dealer for people then interested in buying or selling coins and currency.
At the time of original publication, the article described the following: When originally published, readers were invited to contact Atlanta Gold & Coin at 404-236-9744 or by e-mail to schedule an appointment and reserve coins.
