Default How to buy physical gold?

Hi,

I have a question for the community here. I've decided to put around 5% of my net worth in gold (gold coins or gold bars), but I'm not sure where to buy it? Can you recommend a reputable company to buy gold from (I'm in Toronto)?

By looking online it looks like the coins are more expensive than gold bars, and I was wondering why the difference? Which is better in your opinion gold coins or gold bars? If gold coins, which gold coins?

Do I have to pay GST and/or PST when buying gold bullion?

Any advice is highly appreciated.


Thanks!
