Importing silver bullion bars and silver Britannia coin allowances
Hello, i would like to know what the allowances are for bringing silver bullion bars (.999 and .9999 purity) and silver Britannia coins into the UK are(arriving/carrying through airport)? Would the silver bullion (.999 and .9999 purity) be classed as 'other goods' with a limit of 390GBP limit without needing to pay tax? or would it be it be classed as cash equivalent which would mean up to 10000GBP without the need to declare? Also with the Silver Britannia coins, since they are legal tender as stated by the Royal Mint and Bank of England what would be the allowance i could bring with me? would it be on the face value, which is 2 GBP per coin or the silver weight value which fluctuates?
