Selling to The Royal Mint
The Royal Mint offers a buy-back facility for any full tubes of coins or bars that are stored at The Vault®. From within your account area, you are able to request a quotation to sell any products which you have stored with us. Our buy-back fee is 2% for gold and platinum coins or bars, 4% for silver coins and bars and 1% for digital products.
Please note that The Royal Mint will offer to buy your vaulted silver or platinum bars and coins back at the live metal spot price minus a fee.
The VAT paid on purchase is a requirement under UK law and is passed to HM Revenue & Customs. It is not refundable upon sale. There is no VAT liability on the sale of goods by non-VAT registered individuals.
Alternatively, you may also request delivery of any of your vault holdings - apart from your digital products, which are not available for delivery.
We also offer a buy-back service for any gold, silver or platinum bullion which you have taken delivery of, or have previously purchased elsewhere. The costs for this service are detailed on our sell to us page.
