Why add 1oz gold coins to your collection?

1oz gold coins are among the most popular with collectors, and for good reason. These larger gold coins offer a larger surface area for more ornate and intricate designs, making them more visually striking and perfect as collectables. This display of craftsmanship is most impressive with the likes of Britannia, USA Eagle and Krugerrand coins. The greater weight of fine gold is another key selling point, giving you a heavier feel in hand and more pure gold per coin.

Whether you're buying new or pre-owned 1oz gold coins, each comes with its own story and significance. They're the perfect complement to smaller gold sovereign coins, adding some weight and style to your collection.
