CGT Free Gold Coins

What is Capital Gains Tax?

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is a form of levies imposed on the profit garnered from the sale of assets, such as real estate, investments, and collectibles.  For UK residents, bullion coins which are current UK legal tender pound sterling coins are exempt from CGT.

Invest in CGT-Exempt Coins from The Royal Mint

As an official partner of The Royal Mint, we are able to offer a diverse range of popular Royal Mint coins from many of their popular series. Gold, silver, and platinum bullion coins manufactured from The Royal Mint are classified as CGT-exempt investments such as gold sovereigns and Britannia coins.

Why Should I Buy Gold?

One common question among investors is whether to buy gold over alternative investments. Gold is considered a hedge against inflation during times of economic uncertainty. During the Covid-19 pandemic, there was a significant surge in investors turning to gold, which increased demand and elevated its price. Since then, several factors have caused gold to reach all-time highs, including increased geopolitical tensions, high inflation in the West, heightened interest rates, central banks buying gold, and tariffs potentially causing future trade wars.

Another frequent query we hear at Chards Coin and Bullion Dealer is, "When is the best time to buy gold?" The answer is that there is never a perfect time to buy, as precious metal investments are not regulated in the UK, and investment values can fluctuate, potentially decreasing as well as increasing. However, since the Covid-19 pandemic, gold has increased by 89% over the last five years, meaning those who invested during that period have profited significantly. Nevertheless, there is no guarantee that this trend will continue over the next five years.

Why Buy Gold Coins?

Buying gold coins can be a smart investment for UK investors, especially middle-aged males, as they offer a hedge against inflation during economic uncertainty. Gold coins diversify your portfolio, providing a tangible asset that holds historical value. They are also highly liquid, making it easy to convert them into cash when needed. Additionally, gold coins from reputable sources like The Royal Mint can offer tax advantages, such as Capital Gains Tax exemption, enhancing their appeal as a secure and profitable investment.
