1/2 oz Gold Coin: frequently asked questions
-
The cheapest 1/2 oz gold coin tracked right now is $2,279.50, held by PMR Bullion. That works out to around 3.4% over the $4,408.10 gold spot price. Prices update throughout the day as dealers adjust their listings.
-
A 1/2 troy ounce gold coin weighs 1/2 oz (15.5518 g). Troy ounces are slightly heavier than the everyday avoirdupois ounce, so a half troy ounce is a little more than half an imperial ounce. The coins on this page are 999.9 fine gold (24 carat).
-
A 1/2 oz gold coin contains exactly half the fine metal of a 1 oz coin and costs roughly half as much in absolute terms. However, smaller denominations typically carry a higher premium over spot per ounce because production costs are similar regardless of size. The 1/2 oz format suits buyers who want gold exposure in smaller increments or prefer a lower entry price per piece.
-
We currently track 4 dealers listing 6 1/2 oz gold coins. Comparing prices across dealers before buying can make a meaningful difference, as premiums over spot vary between sellers.

Tax treatment varies by country. In the UK, investment gold is VAT-free, and gains above the £3,000 annual allowance are taxed at 18% or 24% depending on your income band. US investors pay up to 28% on long-term gold gains. In Canada, 50% of any gain is included in taxable income at your marginal rate, and gold bullion coins are generally GST-free.
