Should you buy gold coins or gold bars?
So, you have decided to buy physical gold. The choice between gold coins and gold bars depends primarily on your budget. Gold bars (composed of at least 999-fine gold) are denser and easier to store and sell. On the other hand, the value of gold coins (composed of gold in a less pure form) is valued differently and can also fluctuate according to supply and demand. They also need to be stored in a more specific way to hold their value. Contact GFI’s specialists anytime for more advice.
