About gold bullion

Sovereign gold coins, generic gold rounds, and refiner bars all trade at premiums shaped by mintage, year, weight, and the dealer fabrication chain. Their guaranteed weight and purity make them the easiest products to compare across dealers — what differs is the markup over spot.

How we rank

Every dealer listing is measured as premium = (dealer price − spot value) / spot value, where spot value is the live gold price times the product's weight. Prices refresh hourly; anything older than 24 hours is hidden. Lower premium means more of your dollar goes to metal, so we sort ascending.
