One of the thirteen original colonies, Delaware was the first state to ratify the U.S. Constitution. Today, it is among the wealthiest states in the country, owing in great part to its business-friendly tax policies.

More than half of all publicly traded companies in the U.S. — and 63% of the Fortune 500 — are incorporated here.

This makes Delaware one of the best places to buy gold and silver in the country. Delaware is home to several of the nation’s most renowned coin dealers.
