Gold coins we buy

We buy British coins including Full and Half Sovereigns, Britannias and commemorative gold issues, alongside international bullion coins such as the Krugerrand, American Eagle, Canadian Maple Leaf and Vienna Philharmonic.

Bullion coins are valued primarily on their gold content, but proof, limited-edition and historic coins can carry a numismatic premium. Where this applies we offer the higher of the two figures.

Condition is documented carefully. Coins are kept in their capsules where possible and handled only with clean tools.

Three values to consider

Metal value, bullion value, collector value

Coins are worth at least their gold content, often more. We always check all three and offer the highest figure.
  • Metal value

    Weight × purity × current gold market rate — the floor figure for any solid gold coin.

  • Bullion value

    Recognised bullion coins (Sovereigns, Krugerrands, Britannias) typically trade slightly above metal.

  • Collector / numismatic value

    Proof issues, low-mintage years and rare commemoratives are reviewed against current collector markets — please don't clean coins before sending.

Frequently asked questions

Do I get more for a coin than its scrap gold value?+

Bullion coins typically command a small premium over scrap; proof and rare issues can be worth substantially more.

Should I clean my coins before sending?+

No — cleaning can damage the surface and reduce numismatic value. Send them as they are.

Do you buy single coins?+

Yes. Single Sovereigns and Krugerrands are perfectly welcome.

How are proof and limited-edition coins valued?+

We check current collector markets in addition to the metal price and offer the higher figure.
