Things to consider while buying Gold Coins

Remembering a few simple steps while buying gold coins could ensure that you get the best value for money.

  • The purity of Gold Coins: There are primarily two ways to gauge the purity of gold coins. Karat and fineness. Karat is more commonly used to measure the purity of gold. 22 Karat gold contains 22 parts of gold and two parts of other metals such as silver or zinc. It makes the gold more durable while making jewellery. 24 Karat is the purest form of gold which contains 24 out of 24 parts of gold. Fineness is another parameter to measure the purity of gold. According to the World Gold Council, even a pure gold coin may contain a minimal amount of impurity which a manufacturer may not be able to remove. These impurities are generally alloy. Fineness can be defined as the weight of gold in proportion to the total weight of gold coin including impurities. Usually, a 24 Karat gold is 99.9% pure, and 22 Karat gold is 92% pure.
  • BIS certification/Hallmarking: A hallmark or trademark is a purity certification of the gold coins and gold articles in accordance with the Indian Standard specifications. Gold is evaluated and tested at an official hallmarking centre and then certified that the metals used meets the national and international standards of purity and fineness. Gold that is not accredited by BIS (Bureau of Indian Standard) may not be the real deal. Certified gold coins could save you lots of efforts and time in trying to authenticate the gold coin as the quality test is thoroughly conducted for recognition.

  • Packaging: It is advisable to buy gold coins in tamper-resistant packaging. It is also recommended not to open or scratch the packaging if you are planning to resale it. Check the packaging of the coin before purchasing it. An Intact packaging assures that no tampering has been done to the product.

Ensure that the bill mentions the critical details such as Karat, weight, and price per gram. It is essential to get a permanent bill that properly documents your purchase. The bill gives proof of purity, proof of legality, the proper value of purchase and evidence of legal ownership.
  • Ease of selling Gold Coins: If you are buying gold coins from banks, it is important to note that the banks will not buy back those coins as per the directive from Reserve Bank of India.
