Brexit, the prospect of a new Government, and all the uncertainty these things bring has led to the price of gold<\/a> spiking and remaining near record highs for a few weeks now. For anyone who happens to own a bit of unwanted scrap gold, it could be the ideal time to make a good deal of cash, by selling your scrap gold<\/a> today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A golden price opportunity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

UK Scrap Gold has been watching gold prices continue to outperform other assets over the last few weeks with great interest, and you can track them too \u2013 just check out our Live Gold Prices page<\/a>, to stay up to date on the movements in gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re thinking about selling gold bullion or gold coins<\/a>, it might be one of the best times in history to do so \u2013 as of late July, gold prices are hitting levels that have only been seen once before, in the summer of 2011. Gold failed to sustain that level for long, so the fact that it\u2019s back at this level for such a sustained period of time is a sign that it could be just the time to sell scrap gold<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to get a quick and easy valuation for your scrap gold, without having to send it over just yet? Check out our Gold Scrap Calculator<\/a>. Just a gram of scrap gold, with a purity of 9 carat, could earn you as much as \u00a313.31 with UK Scrap Gold (as of late July), all the more of a reason for you to sell scrap gold<\/a> with us today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jewellery and coins<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
