Georgia, the last of the 13 original colonies, was established in 1732. It is known as the Peach State, a reference to its many fruit orchards. In 1829, gold was discovered in the mountains of North Georgia. The ensuing gold rush led to the establishment of a federal mint in Dahlonega, which operated until the gold rush petered out, shuttering in 1861.

Today, gold bullion remains a popular investment in Georgia. Georgia’s investor-friendly tax policies have made the state a haven for previous metal buyers, and the state is home to many renowned coin shops.
