Over the years the Netherlands has issued gold ducats and (my favorite) double ducats at slightly above spot price.

 

Slightly being a relative term. The quality though is pretty amazing.

The nice thing about the Dutch ducats is you can likely collect them over a period of 400 years. Being .986 fine, they were one of the finest gold coins available for quite some time.

Are these all of them?

 

USA-Eagle

Canada-Maple Leaf

UK-Britania

Australia-Kookaburra

Mexico-Libertad

China-Panda

Austria

Krugerrand

 

I do not know what your definition of Bullion Coin is but Britannia and Wiener Philharmoniker are 8 - 12 % premium Bullion Coins in Europe

The new American Bufalo is 12 %

Mexico Libertad is not seen

Kurgerrand-Maple-Nugget-New Eagle are exactly at goldprice but so are 20 Francs from Belgium, France,Switzerland, 10 Fl holland and the sovereign

some so called investor coins go for melt or less ; many 100 canadian dollar commems do not get melt price and yet they are supposed to be not Bullion Coins but for me they are

4 Ducats from Austria restrike nearly allways goes below melt ( you know those big wafer thin coins)

 

I got this investor coin 14% below melt on ebay France
