Gold Coins — Sovereign Bullion from the World's Great Mints

Gold coins are the most trusted format of physical gold: each one is struck by a government mint, carries legal-tender status, and is guaranteed for weight and purity by the issuing nation. Anchor Bullion carries the seven most traded 1 oz gold coins in the world, all priced live off the gold spot market with free insured shipping over $199.

The Lineup

• American Gold Eagle — the official U.S. gold bullion coin; durable 22-karat alloy, unmatched U.S. liquidity.
• American Gold Buffalo — America's first .9999 fine 24-karat coin, with Fraser's 1913 Buffalo Nickel design.
• Canadian Gold Maple Leaf — .9999 pure with micro-engraved security features from the Royal Canadian Mint.
• Australian Gold Kangaroo — Perth Mint craftsmanship with an annually changing kangaroo design.
• Austrian Gold Philharmonic — Europe's best-selling gold coin, .9999 fine with a euro face value.
• British Gold Britannia — The Royal Mint's flagship, .9999 fine since 2013 with four-layer security.
• South African Krugerrand — the original 1967 bullion coin and still the world's most widely traded.

22-Karat or 24-Karat?

Every coin above contains at least one full troy ounce of gold. The difference is the alloy: 22-karat coins like the Eagle and Krugerrand add copper for scratch resistance, while .9999 fine coins like the Buffalo, Maple Leaf, and Britannia maximize purity. Neither is better — durability versus purity is a matter of preference, and all are IRA-eligible except where noted on the product page.
