Price comparison · snapshot
Compare precious metal prices: gold, silver, platinum and palladium
We compare coins and bars at 14 dealers and convert every price to what you actually pay per troy ounce. Below, the cheapest per metal; every price is one click away.
Delivered is the price including delivery to the Netherlands, with the shipping costs the shop publishes itself; ordering more in one go often shifts that. The ranking is by price per troy ounce, not by the delivered amount: a shop that publishes no rate would otherwise win by saying nothing. More in the disclaimer.
The same data, three other questions
Germany is cheapest on 75% of the products sold in more than one country. Add the shipping to the Netherlands and Netherlands jumps from 25% to 30%.
Over 482 products with dealers in two or more countries; the second figure over the 446 for which we know the shipping costs in both countries.Does it matter where you buy?On 543 products sold by more than one shop, the dearest is typically 9% above the cheapest, for exactly the same piece of metal.
Median over all products with two or more dealers.Does it matter which form you buy?For silver there is 53% between the lowest and the highest price for one troy ounce. Same metal, same weight, just a different form.
Over 189 prices on the silver board.Collector series
1310 editions with an annual design. Same metal, but the premium pays for the design and the mintage, not the weight.See the gold series
Bigger is cheaper per ounce, but less divisible. You sell a kilo bar in one go, at one rate, at one moment. With ten separate 1/10 coins you can step out bit by bit. That difference is exactly what you pay for in the premium.
