About Us
A Family Business Built on Trust
The Yard Mint is a UK-based precious metals dealer specialising in gold and silver coins, bars, Goldbacks, and secure vaulting. We exist to make owning real assets straightforward, transparent, and genuinely enjoyable.
What We Do
We source from the world’s most trusted mints — including The Royal Mint, The Royal Canadian Mint, The Perth Mint, and PAMP Suisse — so every coin and bar we sell is genuine and holds real value.
Our range spans investment-grade bullion, collectible coins, Goldbacks, and vaulted storage. Whether you’re building a portfolio, marking a milestone, or looking for a gift that lasts, we have something worth owning.
A 1 oz Britannia is the same coin wherever you buy it. The difference is our pricing, our service, and the people behind it. If you find the same product for less elsewhere, let us know — we’ll do our best to match it.
How We Work
We keep our listings accurate and up to date. Inventory in this industry moves fast — limited-edition coins sell quickly and restocks take time. If you see something you want, we’d recommend securing it promptly.
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.
We also offer a buyback programme on most items we sell, and professional vaulting for customers who prefer secure off-site storage. All vaulted assets are held under bailment — your metals, your title, off our balance sheet.
The Founder
JT Ferdinand
Founder & Director
The Yard Mint was founded by JT Ferdinand, a London-based entrepreneur with a background in business and consumer markets. Dissatisfied with an industry that too often prioritised complexity over clarity, JT built The Yard Mint to be different — a dealer defined by transparent pricing, genuine service, and personal accountability. As a family business, every order matters.
