Understanding Gold Bullion & Coin Valuation in the UK: LBMA Spot, Sovereigns & Britannias
As the historic birthplace of modern bullion trading, London sits at the center of global precious metals pricing through the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). Selling gold bullion in London is straightforward when you understand spot pricing and UK tax advantages.
The LBMA Gold Price: Global Institutional Fixing
Set twice daily at 10:30 and 15:00 GMT, the LBMA fixing serves as the global institutional benchmark. Our bullion acquisitions are tied directly to live LBMA spot prices in GBP per troy ounce and per gram.
Capital Gains Tax Exemption on Sovereigns & Britannias
Produced from 22k and 24k gold, British Sovereigns and Britannia bullion coins hold legal tender status in the United Kingdom. This grants them a major advantage: they are completely exempt from UK Capital Gains Tax (CGT) for British residents.

We purchase investment gold bars (1g to 1kg) from accredited LBMA Good Delivery refiners, including Metalor, Umicore, PAMP Suisse, Argor-Heraeus, and Valcambi. Purity is verified instantaneously in front of you using precision density testing and XRF spectrometry.
