100 Euro Germany Oberes Mittelrheintal Gold Coin – Germany

GOLDMARKET is a family-owned and independent company specializing in precious metals. We assist individuals, investors, and wealth holders in buying and selling physical gold through our branches in France and Belgium. Every transaction is conducted in your presence: hallmark verification, weighing, and a detailed written calculation, regardless of whether you decide to proceed with the transaction.

The 15,55 g of fine gold contained in this coin represents €3,691.88 as of September 4, 2026, based on a price of €122,22 per gram of fine gold. This is the value of the pure gold content, excluding premium and value-added tax; it is recalculated each time the page is displayed.

No. The amount shown on this page is the value of the pure gold content: the price per gram of pure gold multiplied by the mass of pure gold in the coin, excluding premium and value-added tax. The trade-in value is determined at the branch, after examination and weighing of the coin you present.

This coin meets the criteria of Article 298 sexdecies A of the French General Tax Code: a fineness of 900/1000 or higher, minted after 1800, legal tender—current or past—in its country of origin, and a price usually less than 80% lower than the value of the gold it contains. The European Commission publishes a list of these coins annually. The fineness of this particular coin is 999,9/1000.

The difference is called the premium. It covers minting, packaging, and distribution, and it varies with the coin's availability on the market: a sought-after coin fetches more than its weight in gold. The amount shown on this page is the value of the precious metal it contains, excluding the premium; the selling price is shown at the top of the page.

The ounce carries the lowest premium because the minting costs are spread over a larger quantity of metal. Fractions—half, quarter, tenth—cost more per gram, but they allow for sales in smaller quantities. This example contains 15,55 g of pure gold, for a gross weight of 15,552 g.

For an investment coin, the value is minimal: it's the amount of pure gold that determines its worth, and the year of issue may vary depending on availability. Keep the capsule, the case, and the certificate of origin, as these facilitate identification upon return. A coin sought after by collectors, however, falls under the category of numismatics and is valued differently—we will point this out to you during the examination.

When purchased, investment gold is exempt from value-added tax (VAT), according to Article 298 sexdecies A of the French General Tax Code. Upon resale, two tax regimes apply. The flat-rate tax on precious metals, at a rate of 11,5%, is levied on the sale price and requires no supporting documentation. If you can establish the date and price of acquisition, you may prefer the capital gains tax regime for the sale of movable property: the capital gain is reduced by a 5% allowance per year of ownership beyond the second year, and the sale is definitively exempt from VAT after the twenty-second year, according to Article 150 VC of the same code. We will explain both options to you before the transaction—please keep your invoice.

Yes, at any time, within our network of branches, during the day's trading hours. The transaction is conducted in your presence: identification, weighing, and a detailed calculation provided in writing, regardless of whether you decide to proceed with the transaction. Payment is made exclusively by bank transfer, upon presentation of a valid form of identification. We do not accept cash transactions, regardless of the amount, and we do not process anonymous trade-ins.

Both options are available. Collection is free of charge from one of our branches in France and Belgium, by appointment, upon presentation of an identity document and your order confirmation. If you prefer delivery, it will be sent via insured and anonymous parcel, requiring a signature upon delivery.
