Selling gold Britannia coins

I contacted Scottish Bullion about selling them some gold coins. They offered me a fair market price for the coins, on their weight.
My time in their office was brief, Morgan was quick to verify the coins and take my details for payment.
I received the money into my account within one working day.
I would definitely use them again.
Thanks

I was able to schedule an appointment time with ease.
The staff were polite and helpful prior to and during the appointment. Craig was my contact and he was highly proficient and reassuring.
A polite email notification was received from Dylan in the accounts department and payment was received in my account within 24 hours of my transaction, well within the 5 working days I had been advised.
I will not hesitate to use Scottish Bullion (Edinburgh) again and will certainly recommend them to others.
