In your case, gold may be a good investment, but there is something to keep in mind:

All persons are hereby required to deliver on or before May 1, 1933, to a Federal Reserve bank or a branch or agency thereof or to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System all gold coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates now owned by them or coming into their ownership on or before April 28, 1933

This may never happen again, but it's something to consider when selecting which coins to purchase.
