|May 08, 2025
THE Royal Mint has seen sales of its bullion coins soar to a new record high as Britons flock to invest in precious metals amid turmoil in the financial markets.
-
The UK's official maker of British coins, based in Llantrisant, said the surge reflects people turning to so-called “safe haven” assets in a bid to protect their wealth.
Between January and March, revenue from bullion coins was quadruple the amount generated in the same period a year ago, the Royal Mint revealed.
It also jumped 46% when compared with the previous three months, between September and December.
The Royal Mint said it reflected the strongest start to the year since it first started selling the coins online.
