Premiums over the Ask spot on check/wire prices, in-stock products only. Past premiums don't predict future ones. How we measure

Where our coins and bars come from

Coins by the country that issues them, bars, rounds and grain by the country of their refinery. One tile per country, placed on its location; tiles are moved aside only where countries are too close to fit.

On Nov 3, 2026, the map shows 18 origin countries: coins issued by 14 and bars, rounds and grain from refineries in 9. For 1 oz gold coins, South Africa had the lowest typical premium, 1.7% over the Ask spot (8 compared).

Each tile shows the typical premium of 1 oz gold coins over the Ask spot, by issuing country. Lighter tiles carry lower premiums. Select a country for its coins and bars.

How we measure premiums

Premium over spot = our check/wire price ÷ (the Ask spot price × the piece's fine metal content) − 1. A 1 oz gold coin at $4,200 when the gold Ask is $4,000 an ounce carries a 5% premium. Card and PayPal payments add 5% to the check/wire price.

  • Check or bank wire

    The price the premium is measured on

  • Card or PayPal

    5% added to the check/wire price

The Ask spot is the price level dealers quote when you buy metal; it sits a little above the bid quoted on trading screens. We measure from the Ask because it is the buying side of the market, the same basis our live price pages show. Today's numbers use the Ask at the time our prices were last updated.

History comes from one record per product per day since Oct 27, 2024: our daily price snapshots, and before them our recorded prices, each against the spot price it was set from and converted to the Ask the same way as today's numbers, so today and history compare like with like. Days before a product's definition changed (a single coin relisted as a tube, for example) are left out.

Charts show a 14-day rolling median; the dashed line is the 2-year median. A dot marks the day we lowered our premium on a product, when the lower premium still stands today, and the shaded band runs from that day to today.

"Lower than on X% of days since …" compares today's premium with every day of the product's own history (bid basis on both sides); for a group, it is the median of its products' own figures. It appears only when today is lower than on at least 51% of those days, and for a group only when its typical premium today is not above its 2-year median. Products need 90 days of history for their own figure.

Coins are grouped by the country that issues them (legal tender); bars, rounds and grain by the country of the refinery or mint that made them. Rows compare one size with the same size; sizes are never mixed. Unbranded and random-brand bars are listed as "Generic (various)". Each row's 2-year median is the median of its products' own 2-year medians. The map is drawn by us in a simplified Miller projection; each tile sits on its country's location unless countries are too close to fit, when it is moved aside and a line points to the location. A tile's shade follows the typical premium of the chosen size on a log scale, lighter for lower; the number on the tile is the value. Country cards chart the size with the most products, as a 14-day rolling median.

Premiums move with supply and demand, and smaller pieces cost more per ounce to make. Past premiums don't predict future ones. This is information about our prices, not investment advice.

Common questions about premiums

What is a premium over spot?

It is what a coin, bar or round costs above the value of the metal in it, to cover making, distributing and selling it. We show it as a percentage of that metal value.

Why is the premium measured over the Ask?

The Ask is the buying side of the market: the price level dealers quote when you buy metal, a little above the bid quoted on trading screens. It is also the basis our live price pages use, so the numbers match.

  • Buying from us

    Premiums are measured over the Ask

  • Selling to us

    Our buy prices start from the bid

Why do smaller coins and bars cost more per ounce?

Making, packing and handling a piece cost much the same whatever it weighs, so on a small piece they are a larger share of the metal's value. That is why 1 gram and 1/10 oz gold pieces carry far more than kilo bars; the By size view shows it for every format.

Why do premiums change?

They move with supply and demand for each product and with what mints and refiners charge us. We also review our own premiums; a dot on a chart marks a day we lowered one. Past premiums don't predict future ones.

Is the premium all I pay on top of the metal?

No. You pay the check/wire price shown on the product, which already includes the premium; card and PayPal add 5%. Shipping and any sales tax are extra.
