Should I buy gold bullion bars or gold coins?
All our gold bars and coins are investment grade solid gold products. The premium on each product is dependent on many factors such as the mining, minting and refining costs of the product – the desirability and availability of the product and the collectible desire of the product. Because of these factors, coins generally command a higher premium than bars. Therefore unless you are a coin collector or wish to start a coin collection, bars will normally be the more economical option.
Which coin/s or bar/s should I buy?
This is dependent upon many factors – and really is a personal preference.
