Our recommendations can be found on our silver page, from 1oz coins to 1kg bars! Obviously you will not find silver on here so you will need to visit our original website 24carat.co.uk


Beware the £1 Billion Scrap Gold Buying Rip Off

In the last few months we have seen a proliferation of adverts, leaflets and flyers to buy scrap gold "Top Prices Paid", "London Prices Paid", are typical claims. Many of these are from small traders actually paying very low prices despite their loud noises. We also buy scrap gold and pay more than 99% of our competitors. Don't get ripped off! We were recently featured in the Mail on Sunday's article 'Gold Fever'. We also have a Scrap Gold Sellers Advice page.

Buying & Selling
In the past few weeks, we have had a number of people ask us where they can sell gold coins. Naturally we both buy and sell. It seemed so obvious to us that we didn't think we needed to mention it.

One Ounce Coins versus "Real" Coins
It's easy to believe that one ounce coins offer the best value, but older "real" coins such as sovereigns can be a better buy.

22 Carat versus 24 Carat Coins
We are often asked which are the better buy, but both types of one ounce coins contain exactly the same amount of gold.
