With gold prices reaching historic highs, now is the perfect time to sell gold coins from your collection. Potteries Auctions is offering a limited-time 0% commission deal on gold coins, which means you keep 100% of the hammer price at auction.
Why Sell Gold Coins Now?
Whether you want to sell gold coins like a single sovereign or a complete collection of Krugerrands, we offer free valuations and a trusted, transparent selling process. Our 0% commission offer ensures maximum returns for sellers taking advantage of the current gold market conditions.
Several key factors are driving the sharp price increases, including concerns over international trade conflicts between the United States and China, as well as decreased production from mining operations and a surge of investment from both individual investors and ETFs eager to capitalise on potential market gains before prices rise further.
Following our first 0% commission sale in October 2025 and a successful single-owner auction in 2024, plus gold coins featured in every one of our monthly auctions, we have built a strong base of buyers actively seeking gold coins.
Record-Breaking Results
The numbers speak for themselves when you sell gold coins at auction. Take this 1904 full gold sovereign as an example: one sold with us in November 2023 for £305, and another identical coin sold with us in July 2025 for £525, a remarkable 72% increase.
The only difference between these two sovereigns? Gold prices have skyrocketed, making it harder for bidders to find bargains and easier for sellers to achieve premium prices in our saleroom.
The full gold sovereign dated 1904 on the left sold for £305 a year and a half before the coin on the right, which sold for £525, a 72% increase
Another example, this George V full gold sovereign dated 1911 sold for £340 in March 2024 (left), and £740 in October 2025 (right), a 118% increase in just a year and a half
Global Reach
It’s difficult to predict how long these record gold prices will last, but we consistently achieve well over the gold price for clients who sell gold coins at auction. We add sensible reserve prices combined with marketing to a global audience of collectors and investors.
