Bank of Ghana’s gold coin
The investment price of the Bank of Ghana’s (BoG) gold coins continues to rise, driven largely by the marginal depreciation of the Ghana cedi against the US dollar.
The increasing prices mean buyers must spend more cedis to purchase the same 0.25-ounce gold coin, potentially limiting access for smaller investors. Nevertheless, gold coins remain a stable and tangible investment, offering a hedge against inflation and currency depreciation.
The Central Bank introduced these gold coins as a strategy to curb the hoarding of US dollars and absorb excess liquidity in the market, ultimately aiming to strengthen the cedi against major foreign currencies.
Rising demand for gold coins also helps ease pressure on the cedi, contributing to broader macroeconomic stability.
As of Monday, December 22, 2025, BoG reported updated prices for its gold coins, reflecting the rising value of gold in both local and international markets.
