21K or 24K Gold — which is better to invest?

The Direct Answer: For pure investment: 24K (bars & coins) is superior due to minimal markup and 100% pure gold value. 21K makes sense only if combining jewelry & savings, accepting markup loss (5-15%) on resale. Rule: every unit paid in markup is guaranteed immediate loss requiring price appreciation to recover.
