British hallmarks tell you more than the purity

A UK hallmark struck by an assay office carries the fineness number, a sponsor's mark identifying the maker, and often a date letter and the town mark for London, Birmingham, Sheffield or Edinburgh. 14ct reads 585.

This is a genuine assay rather than a manufacturer's claim, which is why British hallmarked items are straightforward to sell. A date letter can also mean the piece is worth more than its metal, so look it up before scrapping anything old.

9ct is the British default

9ct, stamped 375, is by far the most common gold in the UK and is only 37.5% pure. If you have inherited jewellery and assumed it was 14ct, check: the value difference is substantial, at roughly two thirds more for 14ct of the same weight.

Common questions

Is 14ct gold common in the UK?

Less common than 9ct or 18ct. It is permitted and hallmarked as 585, but British jewellery has traditionally used 9ct at the affordable end and 18ct at the top.

Do I pay tax when I sell gold jewellery in the UK?

Selling second hand personal jewellery does not normally create a VAT liability. Capital gains tax can apply on large gains from investment gold, which is a separate matter from scrapping a ring.
