Frequently Asked Questions About Gold Bullion
What is the difference between bullion and worked gold?
Bullion is pure gold — usually 24-karat — with no making charges, whereas worked gold carries craftsmanship fees that affect the selling price.
What are the most common bullion weights?
Common weights include 1g, 5g, 10g, 20g, one troy ounce (31.1g), 100g, and up to one kilogram.
Can bullion be sold easily?
Yes, gold bullion is in demand and straightforward to sell, especially when hallmarked by a recognised assay authority.
What is the difference between bullion and a gold coin in Britain?
Bullion is pure gold (24-karat, 999.9) with a low premium starting from around 2% for a kilogram bar, and is VAT-exempt but subject to CGT when sold at a profit. Coins such as the Sovereign and Britannia are officially struck by the Royal Mint, carry historic value, and are exempt from both CGT and VAT.
What are the investment advantages of the Gold Sovereign?
The Gold Sovereign offers three key advantages: (1) exempt from Capital Gains Tax (CGT) as UK legal tender, (2) VAT-exempt, (3) high liquidity in British and global markets. Its premium is typically 4–10% above spot.
Is buying gold tax-exempt in Britain?
Yes, investment gold is VAT-exempt in the United Kingdom. For Capital Gains Tax (CGT), British legal tender coins such as the Sovereign and Britannia are CGT-exempt, while bullion bars and foreign coins are subject to CGT when sold at a profit above the annual exemption.
What is the difference between bullion and a gold pound coin?
Can bullion be purchased online?
Yes, many dealers offer online purchasing, but it is advisable to deal with trusted sources that provide an invoice and guarantee.
What is the difference between small and large bars?
Large bars (such as 100g or 1kg) typically have lower making charges per gram, while smaller bars are easier to liquidate and resell.
Is zakat due on gold bullion?
Yes, zakat is due on gold bullion when: (1) the nisab threshold is reached (85g of pure gold), and (2) a full lunar year has passed. The rate is 2.5% of the current value.
