Buying Gold
For many investors, the option to buy gold as an investment over other commodities has always been a safe option, as it is an asset with intrinsic value as well as a hedge against economic and political crises. And given the finite supply, the rare metal looks to only increase in value over time, making it a wise investment choice for many.
There are two main options when buying gold – bars and coins. Coins contain a set weight of gold, with Sovereign coins weighing 7.322 g with 0.2354 troy ounces gold content, while Krugerrands are 33.93g with exactly 1 troy ounce (32.148gms) gold content. Gold bars range from 5g to 1 kilo, are all pure gold and a better choice for investors looking to buy gold in bulk, but have limited flexibility.
Buying Silver
Although silver does not carry the same value by weight as gold, it is still a good investment option as it is more speculative. The greater volatility of silver prices means it can be a worthwhile asset to buy low and sell high.
While many investors gravitate toward gold products like the Krugerrand coin, silver remains an appealing alternative, especially for those looking for greater price swings and potential returns.
Note that silver is charged a 20% VAT, so it’s worth considering as a long-term investment to cover the cost of the value added tax before selling
