    BOGOF deal

    Legal tender too, so you could pay debts to your ex-wife with it

    That's tidy...

        Indeed.

        The Sovereign, gold & silver Britannia and Lunar Bullion coins are exempt from UK capital gains tax for UK residents only, due to being legal tender.

        Gold bars aren't legal tender. Although your local pub would probably take one as payment for a pint.

              Why buy gold when you can buy yourself a bigger home instead?

              No storage fees, VAT free and CGT free and you get to live in it for the duration of the investment?
