Why Buy Gold Coins Online?

To qualify as VAT free investment quality, gold coins must be: ‘minted after 1800 with a Gold purity of at least 900 parts in 1000. Such coins must be or have been legal tender in their country of origin and are normally sold at a price that does not exceed 180% of the value of the Gold contained in the coin.’

All of our coins satisfy the requirements for VAT free status and in addition, our range of British Gold Coins, produced by The Royal Mint, is Capital Gains Tax free.

What is The Best Way To Buy Gold Coins?

The worst way to buy gold coins is through an online auction site. We have heard many horror stories from people who have bought goods at apparently bargain prices only to find that they have ended up with sub-standard and counterfeit coins and a seller who has disappeared.

The best way to buy gold coins safely and securely is through an online distributor such as UKBullion.com. Our secure and verified website provides lots of good information and images of the products that we sell and you can browse without the pressure of a sales assistant hovering in the background. Check out our extensive customer reviews and rest assured that you’ll be getting an excellent service when you buy gold coins from us.

All of our gold coins are priced in line with the global live gold price which is updated every five seconds to ensure that you are getting the most up to date pricing possible.

We offer an excellent collection of VAT Free gold coins, including Gold Britannias and Gold Sovereigns which are also Capital Gains tax Free.
