About this range

Buying gold notes from The Yard Mint

24k Aurum gold notes from 25mg upward — a small quantity of genuine gold sealed into an illustrated, collectible note. They're the most affordable way into gold ownership, with some designs starting under £20.

Each note carries real, weighable gold content alongside artwork that ranges from wildlife to historic themes, which makes them popular both as an entry point for new buyers and as gifts.

Looking for a similar format with more established collector demand? See our Goldbacks range, or step up to gold bars for the lowest premium over spot.

Gold notes — common questions

Is the gold in a note real?

Yes — each note contains a stated weight of genuine 24k gold, sealed within the note for protection.

Are gold notes VAT-free like bars and coins?

Gold notes generally fall outside HMRC's investment gold definition, so VAT may apply. Any VAT due is already reflected in the price shown.

What's the difference between a gold note and a Goldback?

Both are small-denomination gold foil products. Goldbacks are a specific branded series designed to be spendable as a voluntary local currency in participating US states; our Aurum gold notes are a broader range of collectible designs without that spendability feature.

How quickly do you dispatch?

All in-stock orders are dispatched within 24 hours of cleared payment, fully insured, via Royal Mail Special Delivery, FedEx or DHL. You'll receive tracking updates throughout.

Do you buy gold notes back?

Yes — we operate a buyback programme on most items we sell. Get in touch for a current quote.
