When talking about precious metals like gold, silver platinum and palladium, bullion is investment grade bars and coins that are at least 99.5% pure although most modern bars and coins are 99.9% or more pure. Some people refer to only gold bars/ingots as bullion but it is commonly accepted today, that coins, bars and rounds are called bullion if they are greater than 99.5% purity.

Precious metals are exempt from GST / HST. A precious metal is defined as a bar, ingot, coin or wafer of gold, silver or platinum, refined to a minimum purity of 99.50% in the case of gold and platinum, and 99.9% in the case of silver. Gold, silver and platinum products are exempt from HST/GST.
