1/4 oz Gold Coins

When you examine the different options for gold coins here on Provident, you’ll undoubtedly find our selection of ¼ oz gold coins. In fact, many coins are commonly minted with ¼ oz of gold, including those of the world’s top sovereign mints.

Easy on the budget

The reason behind the popularity of ¼ oz gold coins is both simple and obvious: the cost. For investors who are either just beginning their journeys or have limited funds to commit to their goals, fractional coins like these offer a sort of middle ground, pricewise, between 1 oz gold coins and gold bars or rounds.

Common ¼ oz gold coins

The first country ever to introduce a fractional bullion coin is also the first country to offer bullion coins to the public – South Africa. After debuting the 1 oz Krugerrand in 1967, the RSA built its market share to a near-monopoly and, in search of new revenue, produced three new coin weights in 1980. The release included the ¼ oz version of the 22-karat coin.

However, other countries grew tired of both South Africa’s dominance over the market and its commitment to its racist apartheid policies. So, in addition to unveiling their own 1 oz coins, many sovereign mints released their own ¼ oz gold bullion coins.

The lasting result is that you can find numerous ¼ gold coin options these days. Just on Provident Metals, you’ll find ¼ oz options from:

• The US Mint
• The Royal Canadian Mint
• The Perth Mint (Australia)
• The Royal Mint (Great Britain)
• The Mexican Mint
• The Armenian Mint
• The South African Mint
• The Bavarian Mint (Germany)
