Buy gold coins

Some well-known gold coins include:

• Gold American Eagle – issued by the United States, highly popular worldwide due to its historical significance and recognizability
• Gold Krugerrand – issued by South Africa, one of the oldest investment coins and the world's first gold investment coin
• Gold Britannia – issued by the United Kingdom, recognizable for its classic Britannia design often updated
• Gold Philharmonic – issued by Austria, valued for its theme featuring the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and purity

These coins are internationally recognized and valued for their purity, quality, and ease of trading on the global precious metals market.

Our range includes a wide variety of gold coins, ranging from investment-grade gold coins to collectible gold coins.

The most common gold coins are minted in 1 troy ounce, equivalent to 31.103 grams. There are several gold coins that are globally recognized and highly tradable. The Silver Mountain offers well-known investment-grade gold coins such as the Krugerrand and Maple Leaf.

In practice, 1 troy ounce gold coins are the most commonly purchased. The price per gram is lower, and the spread between buying and selling prices is narrower compared to gold bars of similar weights. For larger purchase amounts and weights starting from 50 grams, gold bars tend to be more cost-effective.

In addition to the 1 troy ounce variant, we also offer smaller denominations of coins in our range. We have coins ranging from 1/25 troy ounce up to 2 troy ounces. Additionally, we offer Dutch 'gouden tientjes' (gold ten guilder coins) and 'gouden dukaten' (gold ducats) in our assortment.

Gold coins represent high value and density. Due to gold's high weight and small surface area, it takes up little space and you can easily store it somewhere. Gold coins come in airtight containers to ensure the gold stays in good condition.

Storing gold at home is possible, but it is almost never insured so it may be wise to store the gold at a specialised company. At Edelmetaal Beheer Nederland, it is possible to have your gold coins stored. Storage is possible both in the Netherlands and in Switzerland. You pay a storage fee for this storage facility.

Of course, you can also choose to spread out and store the gold in several places. In any case, if you invest in gold, it is always important that you have easy physical access to it yourself. A common saying in the gold trade is not for nothing ‘If you can't hold it, you don't own it’.

Gold coins are often highly liquid, meaning that it is always possible to sell them at a fair price. This price is based on the gold value of the coins. There is no consideration for collector value upon resale, so the condition of the coins and the specific year are not relevant.

For gold investment coins, such as the gold American Eagle and the gold Kangaroo, you receive a unique buyback guarantee at The Silver Mountain. This buyback guarantee means that you can always sell the gold coins back, regardless of the price or quantity, at a fixed formula. The bid price for gold coins of 1 troy ounce corresponds to 100% of the gold price at the time you wish to sell. This ensures that you can always easily sell your gold coins.

For coins of other denominations or lower gold purities, our bid price is different. For example, the bid price for gouden tientjes (Dutch gold ten-guilder coins) is 95% to 98% of the current gold price. These coins are slightly less liquid. Our subsidiary, Inkoop Edelmetaal, buys all gold coins and always displays the most recent bid price on its website.

When purchasing gold coins, you can immediately see the delivery time and applicable costs. It is possible to have the coins delivered fully insured via our own delivery service or to arrange a pickup appointment at one of our offices. We also offer the option to store your gold coins with our sister company, Edelmetaal Beheer Nederland. This service is available for orders starting from €5,000.
