How much silver does a silver investment coin contain?

What is the difference between silver coins and silver bars?

In contrast to gold, the choice of bars or coins for silver is more important because of VAT. Silver is an industrial metal as opposed to gold, which is categorized as a monetary metal. As a result, Silver bars 21% VAT charged. As for all other "white" precious metals such as platinum, palladium and rhodium. For individuals, it is therefore better to Silver Coins silver coins are subject to the margin scheme in the Netherlands. In the margin scheme, the trader does not calculate the VAT on the turnover, but on the difference between the selling price and the purchase price of the goods: the (profit) margin.  As a result, a lot less VAT is paid for silver coins. It can only be interesting for business customers to buy silver bars because in some cases they can reclaim the VAT. 

The most advantageous for both private and business customers is to buy silver bars or platinum bars to be purchased in combination with storage outside the EU, such as in Switzerland or Singapore. Because these bars are in a customs depot, no tax is levied on them. These bars are therefore VAT-free!

What does diverse years mean?

You can use both Silver Coins if Gold Coins choose "various years" or newly minted copies. The various years are all years except for the year in which we live (or at the beginning of the calendar year the previous year). 

Coins from previous years are often an economical choice. These coins are purchased from private sellers or institutional investors where the production margin is eliminated and logistics costs are lower. This makes it possible to offer the coin at a lower price. The conditions and prices for back sale to Holland Gold are the same for every coin. 

How can I test silver, platinum and palladium for authenticity?

The precious metal you buy from us often comes directly from leading mints and accredited refineries. We carefully check the precious metal in our range for authenticity. 

You can silver Easy self-testing:

  1. Weigh the precious metal with a calibrated scale. The weight will have to be exactly the correct weight. Keep in mind that there may be packaging. Please note that in the case of Troy Ounce Coins a small positive deviation from weight is common. 
  2. The sound test. You can tap against the product with a (different) Gold coin. The bar or coin must make a (slightly) singing or high-pitched sound. The sound should not kill immediately.
  3. The specific gravity test. You can measure the dimensions of the product. Of course, the dimensions must correspond to the dimensions in the product specification. If you know the composition of the product (e.g. 100% silver), you can check the specific gravity based on the dimensions and weight. You do this by means of the following formula: p = m / v. Where 'P' stands for density, 'm' is the mass and 'v' is the volume.
  4. The color test. You can compare the product color with a similar product.
