FAQ - frequently asked questions

How much gold does the 1 oz (31.103 g) bar contain?

The bar contains exactly 1 oz (31.103 g) of pure gold with 999.9/1000 fineness, equivalent to 1 troy ounces. Bar dimensions are 24 × 40 × 2 mm.

What is the difference between minted and cast bars?

Minted bars have a smooth, mirror-like surface and sharp edges, as they are produced by stamping from rolled strips. Cast bars have a rough, matte surface and are made by pouring molten gold into moulds. Minted bars are usually more expensive due to the more complex production process but look more aesthetically refined.

Does the bar come with an assay certificate?

Yes, every bar comes from an LBMA-certified refinery and is delivered with a serial number and assay certificate confirming fineness and weight.

Who manufactures this bar?

The bar comes from one of the certified LBMA Good Delivery accredited manufacturers (including PAMP, Argor-Heraeus, Valcambi, Heraeus, Umicore). The specific manufacturer may vary depending on stock availability, but every bar meets the same 999.9/1000 fineness standard.

Is investment gold subject to VAT?

No. Investment gold (bars with a minimum fineness of 995/1000 and qualifying coins) is VAT-exempt across the European Union under Council Directive 98/80/EC. This is a significant advantage of gold over silver or platinum.

Why is this bar cheaper?

The bar is offered at a reduced price due to damaged packaging. The metal content itself remains fully valuable - fineness 999.9/1000 and weight are unchanged, and the bar can be realised at the spot price in any bullion buyback. A buying opportunity for investors who prioritise pure metal value over aesthetic condition.
