Sell Your Gold Coins
Gold has long been regarded as one of the safest and most enduring investments, and its value continues to appreciate. If you have gold coins you are thinking of selling, now is the ideal time to explore what they could be worth. At Burlingtons Ltd., we specialise in helping clients uncover the true value of their coins through our discreet, personalised service, providing free, clear valuations and immediate payment.
If you are unsure whether your coin is genuine or pure gold, there are a few simple checks you can make before seeking a professional valuation:
- Weight and Size: Authentic gold coins are minted to precise standards. If your coin feels unusually light or the dimensions are slightly off, it may not be pure.
- Hallmarks and Mint Marks: Most gold coins feature markings that indicate their origin, purity, or issuing authority. These can help confirm authenticity.
- Magnet Test: Gold is not magnetic, so if your coin is drawn to a magnet, it is unlikely to be genuine.
- Visual Appearance: Real gold has a distinctive shine and does not tarnish. Coins that show signs of discolouration or wear may be gold-plated rather than solid.
Of course, nothing replaces an expert assessment. We have the expertise to quickly and accurately determine the authenticity and value of your coins, giving you peace of mind. We also know that parting with valuable items can feel daunting, so our goal is to make the process straightforward, transparent, and reassuring from start to finish.
Gold Coins We Buy
We buy a wide variety of gold coins, from widely traded bullion to rare collectables. The coins we most regularly handle are:
- Gold Sovereigns: These are iconic British coins with strong investment and collector appeal.
- Gold Britannias: One of the most respected coins ever produced by the Royal Mint.
- Krugerrands: These are popular South African bullion coins, valued for their high gold content.
- Chinese Gold Pandas: These are sought after for their unique annual designs and rarity.
- Bullion Coins: These are coins purchased primarily for their gold content, such as American Eagles and Canadian Maple Leafs.
You can start the process of selling your gold coins today. Simply get in touch with us to book an appointment for a valuation. One of our friendly and professional team members will get back to you as soon as possible.

How Much Will I Get for My Gold Coins?
We cannot give an exact number until we have seen your coins, but the value is normally influenced by a number of factors, including:
- Amount: This is the weight of gold contained within your coin or collection.
- Fineness: This is the purity of the gold, usually expressed as carat or percentage.
- Age: Older coins may carry higher values due to rarity or historic significance.
- Condition: Well-preserved coins often achieve better prices than those that are heavily worn.
- Collectability: Some coins are desirable not only for their gold content but also for their design, rarity, or place in history.
When you choose to sell through us, we make sure you understand exactly how each of these factors affects your valuation. Whether your coin’s worth is purely bullion-based or enhanced by collectability, we explain everything clearly, so you feel confident in your decision.

FAQs and Useful Information
Do you buy coins that are damaged or scratched?
Yes. Even if your coins are worn, scratched, or not in perfect condition, they still carry value based on their gold content. In some cases, rarity or collectability can outweigh surface condition, so it is always worth having them assessed.
Do I need to clean my coins before valuation?
No. In fact, we recommend that you do not attempt to clean your coins, as this can sometimes reduce their value. Our specialist is experienced in assessing coins as they are, and we will provide a clear valuation without the need for any preparation on your part.
How do I know if my coin is bullion or collectable?
Bullion coins are primarily valued for their gold weight and purity, while collectable coins may have additional worth due to rarity, design, or historic interest. If you are unsure, we will explain this distinction during your valuation and let you know whether your coin carries a premium above its bullion value.
Can I sell coins that are not in their original packaging?
Yes. While coins in original presentation boxes or packaging may attract added value and interest from collectors, we are happy to buy coins without their cases.
