Pre-owned bullion is all about value. You're buying the same weight and purity of precious metal as you would with a brand new item, but at the lowest possible margin we can offer. Because these pieces have been owned before, they may show small marks, handling scuffs or other signs of wear. That's perfectly normal, and it doesn't change the metal content, weight, or specification in any way.
Every item is carefully checked and authenticated before it reaches our shelves, so you can buy with complete confidence. For many investors, the appeal is simple: you get more metal for your money. Condition is secondary to value here; if your goal is to maximise the amount of bullion you own, pre-owned stock can be a very cost-effective choice.
Britannia coins are The Royal Mint's own gold and silver bullion coins. Gold Britannias were first made in 1987, and silver Britannias followed in 1997. The 2027 coins celebrate 40 years of the gold coin and 30 years of the silver coin.
Every coin shows Britannia, the figure who has stood for Britain on coins since Roman times. Today's coins are struck in 999.9 fine gold and 999 fine silver, and they're UK legal tender.
