Questions
What is the 1oz Silver Britannia?
The Silver Britannia is a one-ounce 999 fine silver coin with a £2 face value. As sterling legal tender it falls under the same CGT rule as the gold coins. Silver is not investment gold, so new coins carry 20% VAT; prices here include it.
How much silver is in a 1oz Silver Britannia, and what is it worth?
It contains 31.10g of fine silver (1 troy oz). Its melt value is that weight times the spot price; dealers sell above it and buy back below it. Silver price today.
How much will a dealer pay for a 1oz Silver Britannia?
None of the dealers we measure has a current published buyback price for it. Some dealers buy without publishing a price and quote on request. Buyback prices for every product.
Do I pay Capital Gains Tax when I sell a 1oz Silver Britannia?
No. It is UK legal tender, and gains on sterling currency aren't chargeable to Capital Gains Tax (TCGA 1992 s21(1)(b); HMRC Capital Gains Manual CG78305). That holds however much profit you make. Capital Gains Tax guide.
Is there VAT on the 1oz Silver Britannia?
Yes. Silver is not investment gold, so new silver bought for delivery carries VAT at 20%. The prices on this page include it. Pre-owned silver sold under the VAT margin scheme shows VAT only on the dealer's margin. VAT guide.
Why do dealers charge different prices for the same coin?
Each dealer adds its own premium to the spot price to cover minting, handling and margin, and some charge for delivery. The silver inside is worth the same everywhere, so the premium and delivery are what you're really comparing. It is not returned when you sell. How dealer premiums work.
