Pre-Owned Bullion Gold Coins

Pre-owned gold coins represent excellent value as they are usually sold at a lower premium than newly minted coins, offering a great opportunity to get the most gold for your money.

New coins attract manufacturer's premiums and delivery costs, and so are generally more expensive than second-hand ones. Manufacturers premiums do not apply when purchasing pre-owned gold coins. With the exception of coins with numismatic, historic, or collectible value, the value of a pre-owned gold bullion coin is determined only by the current market price of the precious metal, and so bullion dealers are able to sell pre-owned gold coins at lower premiums than new.

All of the pre-owned products for sale on the Atkinsons website have gone through rigorous testing procedures before they are offered for sale. Each gold coin is tested using the latest XRF technology and is examined in by one of our team of experienced appraisers to authenticate its weight, size, and condition.

Our pre-owned gold coins are bought from the general public. A large majority of the pre-owned items we sell at Atkinsons are bought from previous clients, which means we often know the provenance of these products.
