Sell Gold Bullion Bars for Cash
Sell gold bullion bars with Moonstone Gold through our UK postal service. Request a free insured pack, receive a no-obligation offer and get immediate payment by bank transfer after accepting your valuation.
Whether you have one small bar or several investment pieces, we explain the offer before you decide. Also, we return your items free of charge if you decline. Before sending valuable bullion, check that the agreed delivery cover suits the contents.
Sell Gold Bullion Bars in Different Sizes
We assess minted and cast gold bars in a range of weights. For example, you may have small gram bars, one-ounce bars or larger pieces from refiners such as PAMP, Metalor, Heraeus or Umicore.
First, record each bar’s marked weight, purity and refiner. Then, note any serial number and keep the original packaging or certificate alongside it. These details help identify the items, although we still need to assess the bars themselves.
If you have a large bar or several valuable pieces, contact our team before posting. We can discuss the collection and suitable delivery arrangements. Do not assume that a standard pack provides unlimited insurance.
Understanding Weight and Purity
Before you sell gold bullion bars, check the units on each piece. Bars may show their weight in grams, kilograms or troy ounces. A troy ounce equals approximately 31.1035 grams, so it differs from an ordinary ounce.
A 999.9 fineness mark indicates 99.99% gold. However, a mark alone cannot establish authenticity. We assess the actual item before confirming the purity and weight used in your offer.
For an initial estimate, use our gold price calculator with the appropriate weight and purity. Also, exclude packaging from any home measurement. A certificate card or protective case contributes weight without adding gold to the bar.
How to Sell Gold Bullion Bars Online
- Request your pack: complete the form below with your contact and delivery details.
- Check the cover and send: follow the supplied instructions and use the agreed prepaid, tracked and insured Royal Mail service.
- Review the valuation: we assess your bullion and contact you with an offer. Once you accept, we make an immediate bank transfer.
Before posting, confirm the insurance limit and any conditions that apply to your parcel. If your bars exceed that limit, speak to us first. Finally, keep your proof of posting and tracking details until the process finishes.
What to Compare When You Sell Gold Bullion Bars
Your offer depends on the assessed gold content and the applicable buying rate. However, an advertised market price and a buyer’s final payment can differ. Ask what each figure represents before comparing quotes.
For example, compare offers for the same bar weight and purity. Then, check whether fees or deductions reduce the amount you would receive. Also, ask how long the offer remains available, because market prices can change.
Keep a record of the bar details and the total quoted payment. This gives you a clearer comparison than a headline price alone. You can also review our UK gold market price information for background.
Packaging, Certificates and Refiner Marks
Original packaging can help identify a bar and preserve its condition. Therefore, leave sealed bars in their packaging before requesting an assessment. Tell us if a seal looks damaged or if the certificate details differ from the bar.
Similarly, keep receipts and serial-number records where available. These documents provide useful context, but they do not replace checks on the metal itself. If you lack the paperwork, contact us to discuss the item.
The LBMA’s Good Delivery overview explains its bullion market standards. However, a familiar refiner name on a retail bar does not independently prove authenticity. Our assessment remains necessary before we make an offer.
How We Assess Your Bullion
When you sell gold bullion bars to us, we check their identity, weight and precious-metal content. We also review the details you supply about their origin and packaging. Then, we explain the basis of the proposed payment.
Our gold testing information describes assessment methods. The appropriate checks depend on the bar’s size, construction and condition. Therefore, ask how we will assess a sealed item before sending it.
If an assessment differs from your expectations, request an explanation before accepting. An online estimate cannot establish authenticity or confirm the final amount remotely. You remain free to review our offer and decide whether to proceed.
Preparing to Sell Gold Bullion Bars by Post
First, list every bar you intend to send, including its weight and serial number where present. Next, photograph the items and packaging for your own records. Keep that list so you can compare it with the assessment.
Follow the supplied packing instructions and stop heavy bars from moving inside the parcel. Also, keep separate items from striking one another. Contact us if the pack seems unsuitable for the size or weight of your bullion.
Finally, check the contents and include the requested contact details before sealing the package. Do not post until you understand the cover for the full value. Suitable packaging and agreed insurance arrangements matter particularly for larger holdings.
Immediate Payment When You Sell Gold Bullion Bars
Once you accept our offer to sell gold bullion bars, we make an immediate payment by bank transfer. First, confirm the bank details needed to send your money to the correct account. Ask any valuation questions before agreeing to the sale.
Alternatively, if you decline the offer, we return your bullion free of charge through our insured delivery service. Requesting a pack does not oblige you to sell, and you can consider the offer before deciding.
