Gold has always been a favorite of the rich and powerful. It's been mined since around 6000 B.C., and kings and queens loved having it in their treasuries.

STUTTGART, BADEN WüRTTEMBERG, GERMANY, DEUTSCHLAND, June 2, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Harald Seiz, CEO of Karatbars International: Gold in Ancient Times

The kings of Greece and the Roman emperors wore golden crowns and jewelry to match. One Hittite prince loved gold so much, he sent presents to the Pharaoh in Egypt and asked for gold in return. The ancients even liked to take it with them. In 1876, a golden mask was discovered in Greece, said to be the death mask of King Agamemnon. King Tutankhamen was buried in a fabulous golden mask that weighed about 22 pounds.

Medieval Gold

The oldest medieval golden crown was the Iron Crown of Lombardy, made in the 9th century. An 11th-century crown of the Holy Roman Emperor was studded with precious stones and featured an arch and a cross. The Holy Crown of Hungary goes back to the 12th century. It was gold with inlaid enamel, and Hungarian kings were not considered official until they were crowned with it.

Royal Gold in Modern Times

In her younger days, Queen Elizabeth II wore a golden coronet with crosses and fleur-de-lis. Her ancestor Queen Victoria, being of small stature, passed on the traditional crowns and commissioned a better-fitting golden one studded with diamonds.

You can have gold, too, as both protection and an investment for the future. Harald Seiz is the founder and CEO of Karatbars International GmbH, a company that allows people to purchase small quantities of gold. He points out that the national debt of many countries is causing inflation, but gold can provide security; it keeps its value and is the most stable currency. Instead of focusing on what we don't have, Mr. Seiz suggests we work toward our goals. Buying gold in small amounts can help us achieve our goals.

Harald Seiz worked in the insurance and property industries in the 1980s, then went on to be an independent adviser. He became an entrepreneur, and his company earned more than 60 million euros in the 1990s. He's led Karatbars International since 2011 and believes people should secure their future through capital formation. Mr. Seiz points out there's a huge demand for gold, making it the perfect investment.

We can't all be kings and queens, of course. But with careful investing, we can at least have a golden future.
