Gold Certificates

Vancouver Gold carries a limited supply of physical gold (not on premises) that we offer for sale in the form of Gold Certificates. Each Gold Certificate is backed by physical gold. This is the most efficient way to invest in gold, as we do not charge holding fees. There are no transaction fees, if you hold your certificates for longer than 3 months.

We have a strict limit on the Quantity of Gold Certificates we sell as they all must be backed by our physical holdings of gold. You can sell your Gold Certificate back to us at any time. Or, if you prefer, you can exchange your certificate for physical gold (in the form of gold bars) by paying a fabrication fee of $40 per ounce (note: fabrication time applies).

The table below is created using an example gold price of $1350 CAD per Troy Ounce. Contracts purchased this day would cost exactly $1350/Ounce. The sales prices for contracts sold at this spot rate would depend on the period of time held, as described below.

	Contracts held for over 90 days	Held for between 30 and 90 days	Held for 30 days
Payout Price	1350	1343.25	1336.50
Holding Costs	0%	0.5%	1%

You can lock in a selling rate at any time, and we will settle the transaction within 5 business days of the date of sale. Alternatively, you can take delivery of physical gold bullion at any time, by paying the holding cost (if certificate was held for less than 90 days), and a fabrication fee of $40 per ounce. (note: fabrication time applies)
