Hey guys, I know this questions may have been asked a lot before

What size of physical gold is the most popular and the best to hold?
Both in terms of premiums and the ease to liquidate when (and if) gold price skyrockets.

Also the same question whether it's best to get bullions or coins, minted or cast.
For silvers I've done a lot of research before and went with the kilo bars, but what's the best option for gold?

Sincerely appreciate any help with this!

Perhaps a Perth Mint 1 oz Gold coin but 1/10 of an ounce are very popular.
The Perth Mint has plenty of bullion gold coins to select from, some have a limited mintage, some have collector appeal.
Here's a link to their site and approximate prices.

Here's a link to pdf documents from the Perth Mint where you can see how many coins were minted, the various sizes and names.

Please do plenty of research regarding fakes; the Chinese copy everything including, blister pack, certified, tamper-evident cases.
 
Depends on your requirement for liquidity. If you need to sell quickly fractional (less than 1 oz) is your best bet. But you will pay heavy premiums over spot.

If you want a better return on your investment than you need the size with the best spread and you will want larger bars.

Perth mint products will always sell fast.

Personally, as said above, I prefer the numismatics such as sovereigns, Ducats, Krugerrands, roosters and $200 australian coins ect. Being non 999 gold you will have to factor in GST too.

Best to have a mix of all types.
 
I don't know the Australian market, but in the UK I built a business buying and selling small gold and selling through social media. The question you need to ask yourself is this, are you happy selling peer to peer, if so then pay the premium for smaller gold as it will be premium in and premium out, if you want anonymity then buy best bang for your buck play the spot price and sell to a dealer.
