Gold Bars

Which gold bar is best to buy?

Gold bars in the UK come in different weight types: gram, kilogram, and ounce. Gold bars in the UK are VAT-free. If you are preparing to invest in gold bars, there are many different size bars available ranging from 1g, 2.5g & 5g – these would also be great for gifting. However, it is worth considering 50g, 100g, 250g, and 500 grams gold bars as an investor. For a beginner 24 carat gold, 1 ounce gold bars are ideal. Opt for 1/10 Ounce, 1/4 Ounce, 1/2 Ounce, and 1 oz gold coins for more options.

All gold bars for sale are dispatched from Birmingham, UK, the same day for next-day delivery. We use Royal Mail Special Delivery, and your bullion will be delivered right to your doorstep.

Why invest in gold bars?

Usually, bars are far more reasonably priced than gold bullion coins because their greater quantity means they are much cheaper to manufacture therefore have the lowest premium over spot price. Consequently, they are commonly favoured by investors who want to purchase a large quantity of precious metal for a low cost. Investors are also inclined to Good Delivery bars or known as Gold Ingot.

Buying gold bars is one of the best ways to diversify gold in your portfolio. Unlike paper currency, gold remains in minimal supply. Demand for the world’s favourite precious metal outweighs supply, guaranteeing that gold will either retain its value or increase no matter what happens in financial markets. Furthermore, investment gold bullion bars are exempt from VAT in the UK. This is a plus for new customers who want to diversify their portfolio and invest in precious metals and those who already own gold but would like to buy more without paying additional taxes on top of your purchase price.
