Tax Free Gold Bullion

Anyone who is interested in investing in bullion gold in the UK has two main options - bars or coins. Both have their own benefits and each appeal to investors for different reasons including flexibility and divisibility, value for money and even collectability.

Though most gold coins throughout history have been produced as bullion, the modern standard of production for investment coins means that, though many are legal tender and have a face value, they do not enter circulation. Often minted at the same time as other variations of the same coins such as commemorative and proof coins, bullion coins are valued on their intrinsic gold value. This means that you do not have to pay high premiums for rarity, special finish or packaging. And, when you buy online with Physical Gold, we offer discounts on larger volumes. Gold bullion coins are available in various denominations. Investors seeking the best value should buy larger denominations to obtain the best prices (an example is 1oz). Investors generally seek flexibility and divisibility when they buy gold bullion online. A top-seller for Physical Gold Ltd are gold sovereign coins, these are easy to trade in, popular worldwide and offer future investment potential for collectors too. Older sovereign coins that also have historical value, including coins that pre-date 1933 and encompass the head of monarchs like Edward VII & VIII, George V & VI, Queen Victoria and early Elizabeth, are semi-numismatic gold bullion UK coins. Sovereigns have been used as gold bullion coins dating back many hundreds of years. Image via Wikimedia. It is possible to buy gold bullion UK semi-numismatic coins at a lower cost than their modern equivalents since their condition is often inferior. Though they may have an inherent historical value, unless they are rare or collectible, they can be a good way to create a mix across your portfolio and spread the risk of exposure to the volatility of any changes in market conditions. Physical Gold offers a range of ways to buy gold bullion online including those coins that offer a collectible or historic value in addition to their inherent gold value.
