Capital Coins

Limited edition British gold coins

Capital Coins is a dealer specialising in limited edition British gold coins, based in London. Its catalogue focuses on Royal Mint commemoratives and historic sovereigns, and each piece is listed individually with its year, specification and grade. Most coins are offered sealed and certified by NGC or PCGS; where a piece is not certified, the listing itself states this explicitly.

Catalogue and selection criteria

The site organises its offering into certified proof coins, uncertified proof coins and accessories. Each listing includes an individual photograph of the obverse and reverse, along with the full specification: year, denomination, fine gold content, mintage and designer. The company states that it compares its price with that of other UK dealers before listing a coin and that it aims to offer the lowest price, a claim that reflects its own commercial presentation.

Certification grades

The catalogue can be searched by certification grade. The company distinguishes between PF70 and PR70, the highest numerical grade for proof coins, which NGC calls PF70 and PCGS calls PR70, and PF69 and PR69, defined as a near-perfect proof coin with only minimal imperfections. At the time of analysis, the site indicated 36 coins in the seventies group, with 13 available, and 12 in the sixty-nines group, with one available.

Presentation and condition of each piece

Presentation varies from one coin to another and is described on each coin's listing, not as a common feature of the entire range. A piece may include its presentation case with a numbered certificate or be sealed in its certification holder. Where a coin has been certified, the listing records the service that graded it, the grade and any designation as it appears on the holder.

Shipping, payment and customer service

The company offers free, fully insured shipping on all UK orders, regardless of the coin's value. Payments are made through an encrypted checkout and card details are not stored on the site. For enquiries about specific pieces or available stock, you can request a callback by providing your name and phone number; the company states that it uses this data only to respond to the enquiry and does not pass the number on to third parties. Customer reviews are collected through Feefo and the company does not select which ones are published.

Informational content and legal notices

The site includes guides on British proof coins, the difference between proof and bullion coins for UK buyers, and the PCGS and NGC certification system. Capital Coins operates as a trading name of CC Britain Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. The company presents all coins as collectibles and not as investments, and warns that tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may change.
