Selling investment-grade gold bullion is different from selling jewellery — pricing tracks the spot market closely, and customers expect tighter margins. We buy bullion bars and ingots of all sizes in St Helens, quoting transparently against today's per-gram market rate so you can see exactly how the offer is built.
Gold bullion is valued almost entirely on its weight and purity (typically .999 or .9999 fine gold) against the current market rate. Larger bars carry tighter margins and therefore a higher percentage of spot value compared to smaller bars. You can sense-check the figure beforehand using today's UK gold price or our guide on how much your gold is worth.
For higher-value transactions we can offer secure bank payment as well as cash. Please call ahead so we can ensure we have the right team and funds available for the appointment. If you're weighing up timing, our short read on whether now is a good time to sell gold is a useful starting point.
If you also hold sovereigns, Britannias or krugerrands, those are valued slightly differently — see our dedicated page on how we buy gold coins in St Helens. Mixed bullion and coin lots are welcome in a single visit.
