Best in the UK

Absolutely the best! Martin is incredible — he keeps excellent stock, manages it efficiently, and consistently offers rare coins that you won’t find anywhere else. Despite clearly having a busy schedule, he goes out of his way to ensure his customers are happy. Fantastic service — I would 100% recommend him.

Excellent service from Martin

I've ordered a few coins from Martin over the year. Martin has always been very helpful, friendly, and just a really nice guy. Always available for help with orders. Very good prices it's nice in this day and age to have a professional personal touch to buying.
A fantastic Silver trader I wouldn't shop anywhere else.
Steve.

Happy customer

Very happy with the product and service. Exactly as advertised. Martin went out his way to call and help me with the purchase when I had trouble at checkout. It even came 2 days later during the very busy Christmas period where the postal service can be out of control. Great competitive price on silver. I will be a returning customer.

Impressive

Impressive! Coins arrived really quickly was like pass the parcel unwrapping them! As the grandchildren get older it’s been harder to find Christmas and Birthday presents for them so a few years ago I started buying them a silver coin each for these occasions always buying from royal mint so was a bit worried buying from elsewhere but I shouldn’t have been, if you haven’t bought from Martin at silver trader go start investing now. I shall be back for more
Thankyou

Superb

My first (and not last) purchase from Silver Trader. Very competitive pricing and slick service. Was slightly concerned with bank transfer payment as easy to defraud but absolutely no problem and my order arrived by 1300 hrs the next day. Coins supplied in pristine condition in capsules with certificates of authenticity. Top service and will be buying from Martin again.

Really speedy and free delivery

Really speedy and free delivery! 2024 Libertad was genuine but had a couple of little dints and tarnish blobs in the field which was a bit annoying as I was planning to put the coin in a “bullion of the world” collection which I’m assembling. (On the other hand this is second hand bullion after all, and I had used a cheeky discount code (saved 80p), which I’ve since realised was bad form, as it was only intended for bank transfer purchases).

Thank you For the review Warren, sorry about the little imperfections sadly dints happen to bullion coins when they are shipped inside tubes of 25 before I place them in capsules so not much i can do.
I am a little bit annoyed that a 4 star review knocks my rating down from 4.9 stars to 4.8 but i suppose trustpilot has to try and intimidate people into paying for a service / account they never wanted or signed up for to begin with lol. sincerely martin

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

No fuss, so easy, and also no trouble. Perfect.

I get emails to notify me of all his news. After I had such an easy experience last year, I made sure I got more ASAP. If you want something different, with a production number, or colourised coins, you wont find better prices, with amazing delivery times.
Made my experience so easy. I even added to my order last year before it was sent, so passed on a discount to that purchase.
Any questions, he will respond and clarify any things you need to ask about.

Great service and very prompt delivery

Great service and very prompt delivery. This is the first order I have made though Silver Trader and will be ordering more products from this company. Unlike one purchaser I accept bullion coins can have or develope milk spots and I have not seen this on my purchase which I see as an added bonus. Glad I watched a YouTube video which recommended this company, the service is the best by far. Lastly, my purchase turned out to be over £8 cheaper than another company I bought from on the same day, so on this occasion Silver trader has been outstanding against the competition. Very happy with my purchase
