I'm looking to buy some physical silver coins. I can purchase the coins VAT free which is good but it is unclear to me if there is CGT on the sale of the coins at a future date. I know if I buy gold or silver bullion any gain is subject to CGT. My query would be for coins that are legal tender such as Britannia, Austrian Philharmonic coins, Canadian Maple Leafs etc.

Has anyone any knowledge of the CGT implications for the sale of silver coins?
 
Same as other assets - Gain = Sale price - Cost taxed at 33%

Why do you think it should be any different
