## Frequently asked questions

### What is this website?

It's a list of the cheapest gold coins and bars I can find, from 1 gram up to 100 grams. A script checks the sellers' prices every 30 minutes and sorts them, so you don't have to open twenty tabs.

### How is this website different?

**The price you see is the price for one.** A lot of sites show the "as low as" price, which is what you'd pay if you bought twenty of something. I'm usually buying one, so that's the price I show wherever the seller publishes it.

**It only lists what's in stock.** No pre-orders, and nothing sold out sitting at the top of the list.

**It's fast.** Sort it, search it, and filter it all on one page. Leave the page open and new prices just show up on their own. You never have to hit refresh.

**Nobody pays to be here.** No ads, no sponsored sellers, no affiliate links. I don't make a dime when you click on something, so I've got no reason to push one seller over another.

And every price is in U.S. dollars, which you'd think would go without saying.

### How often are the deals updated?

I check every seller's prices every 30 minutes. The deals on this page are current as of 03:01 UTC on 2026-10-12.

### Is gold a good investment?

Gold has historically been considered a strong store of value, especially during times of economic uncertainty or inflation. Over the long term, the price of gold has steadily increased, reflecting its role as a hedge against currency depreciation and market volatility. While gold may not offer the same short-term returns as stocks, it tends to retain its value over time, making it a popular choice for preserving wealth. However, like any investment, its performance can fluctuate, and it's important to consider it as part of a diversified portfolio.

### What's a stacker?

A stacker is someone who accumulates precious metals, like gold or silver, as a form of wealth preservation. Stackers typically prefer physical bullion such as coins or bars and focus on long-term investment strategies. The goal is often to "stack" as much metal as possible to protect against inflation or economic uncertainty. Most stackers aim to accumulate 5-10% of their net worth in metal.

### How do I start stacking gold?

Stacking starts with choosing the right type of gold for your collection. Most beginners opt for popular 1 ounce coins or bars like the American Gold Eagle or Canadian Maple Leaf. Make sure to buy from reputable dealers, compare premiums over spot price, and consider storage options like a safe or bank vault. Diversify your purchases over time, and be mindful of your budget, ensuring that you buy when the price aligns with your goals.

### What is the gold spot price?

The gold spot price is the current market price at which one ounce of gold can be bought or sold for immediate delivery. It reflects the global price of gold in real-time, influenced by factors such as supply, demand, geopolitical events, and market speculation. The spot price is widely used as a benchmark in the gold industry and fluctuates constantly during market hours, which are primarily set by major commodities exchanges like COMEX.

### Why do gold coins and bars have a premium?

The premium on gold coins and bars is the additional cost above the spot price of gold. This premium covers manufacturing, minting, distribution, and dealer costs. Coins tend to have higher premiums than bars due to their intricate designs and collectible value, whereas bars are usually closer to the spot price because they are simpler to produce.

### What sizes of gold do you list?

Bars and coins from 1 gram up to 100 grams: 1 oz, 1/2 oz, 1/4 oz and 1/10 oz, plus gram bars of 1, 2, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 grams. The ounce sizes each have their own page, the gram bars share one, and there is one page with every size together.

Some coins are not a round weight. A British sovereign holds 0.2354 oz of gold, a French 20 francs 0.1867 oz, a Mexican 50 pesos 1.2057 oz and an old US $20 double eagle 0.9675 oz. Those are on the Other weights page, each with the gold it holds, and their premiums are worked out from that weight.

The 1-ounce size is the most widely traded and usually carries the lowest premium for its weight, which is why it is the home page. Smaller pieces cost less in total but more per ounce of gold. That is why every price here is shown with its premium in dollars and as a percent: the percent is what lets you compare a 1 gram bar with a 1 ounce coin.

I don't list 5 oz and 10 oz bars or anything heavier, or sets and multi-packs.

### What about Costco gold?

Costco began selling gold to members in 2023, offering 1 oz gold bars primarily through its online store. Executive members can enjoy a 2% discount, and using the Costco Anywhere Visa card adds an additional 2% cashback — a combined 4% discount that you'll receive later in the form of a rebate. These savings make Costco a competitive option for purchasing gold, though stock is often limited and sells out quickly.

Costco's products don't always appear in the main list on this page, but the table below shows all of the 1 ounce gold products currently available on Costco's website. The discounted prices of these products might make them competitive with products from other sellers.

| Product | Price | With the 4% discount |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| [1 oz Gold Bar PAMP Suisse Lady Fortuna Veriscan (New in Assay)](https://www.costco.com/1-oz-gold-bar-pamp-suisse-lady-fortuna-veriscan-(new-in-assay).product.4000363990.html) | $4,250.00 | $4,080.00 |

### What's the best way to buy gold with a credit card?

Purchase from Costco or Walmart. Those sellers don't have higher prices or fees for credit cards.

### Where should I store my gold?

Storing your gold securely is crucial to protecting your investment. Many stackers choose to store their gold in a home safe, but it’s important to ensure it is fireproof and bolted down. Alternatively, you can store gold in a bank's safe deposit box or a specialized vault service, which offers additional layers of security and insurance.

### Will I need to pay sales tax on gold?

Whether you need to pay sales tax on gold depends on your location. In many states or countries, precious metals like gold are exempt from sales tax if purchased for investment purposes, especially above certain thresholds. It’s important to check local tax laws to see if exemptions apply where you live.

### How do I sell gold?

Selling gold is relatively straightforward. You can sell to local coin shops, bullion dealers, or on online platforms like [r/Pmsforsale](https://www.reddit.com/r/Pmsforsale/) that specialize in precious metals. It’s important to shop around for the best offer, as prices and premiums may vary. Ensure you understand any fees involved before making a transaction.

### How much can I sell my gold for?

The amount you can sell your gold for depends on the current spot price of gold and the type of gold you are selling. Dealers will typically offer you slightly below the spot price to cover their costs, and this is known as the buyback price. The condition and purity of your gold, as well as market demand, can also affect the price. Shop around for competitive offers, and always sell to a reputable dealer to get the best value.
