All of the products that we sell for dispatch can be stored within The Royal Mint vault

Coin tubes and larger gold, silver and platinum bar storage fees are charged at 1% + VAT per annum based on the average daily market value of your total metal holding that is stored in The Vault®. Single coin capsules and smaller bars are charged at 2% + VAT per annum based on the average daily market value of your total metal holding that is stored in The Vault®. DigiGold management fees are charged at 0.5% + VAT per annum based on the average daily market value of your total gold holding that is stored in The Vault®.

No. Gold is a commodity and its price is influenced by supply and demand. Gold has traditionally performed well over the long-term and has increased in value every year for the last 5 years, but this is not an indication of future performance. If the price of gold falls, then the value of your holding will also decrease. This could mean that the value of your gold holding could fall below the value of the money you have invested.

All products stored within The Vault® are fully insured against any physical loss, damage or theft.

We aim to provide our customers with their Annual Statements within three months of the end of each financial year. If you require an ad hoc statement before this time, please get in touch with our account management team by emailing pmsales@royalmint.com.
