Import Tips

Verify the coin's precious metal content via assay certificate to confirm classification under Chapter 71 and avoid reclassification as bullion

Ensure documentation proves the coin is not legal tender (e.g

marked 'copy' or 'replica') to prevent Customs holding as currency

Declare exact weight and purity; common pitfall is undervaluation leading to penalties under precious metals import rules
