100 g Platinum Bar Various LPPM Producers
100 g Platinum Bar Various LPPM Producers is a fully valuable investment platinum bar weighing 100 g, manufactured by the renowned refinery Różni Producenci (LPPM countries) from 999.5/1000 fine platinum - the highest investment-grade platinum purity standard compliant with London Platinum & Palladium Market (LPPM) Good Delivery requirements. Each bar is individually packaged in a certified CertiPAMP/CertiCard blister with a serial number stamped directly on the bar that matches the number on the accompanying assay certificate confirming fineness and weight.
The bar comes from one of the certified LPPM Good Delivery accredited platinum manufacturers (including Valcambi, PAMP Suisse, Johnson Matthey, Heraeus, Argor-Heraeus, Tanaka). The specific manufacturer may vary depending on stock availability, but every bar meets the same 999.5/1000 platinum fineness standard and full weight conformity confirmed by an assay certificate with serial number.

- high recognition and liquidity on the secondary market - bars from LPPM-accredited manufacturers are easily tradable across Europe;
- diversification of a precious metals portfolio - platinum has a different price profile from gold and silver (strong correlation with industrial demand, particularly the automotive sector - catalytic converters);

Authenticity certificate and traceability
Each bar is delivered in an original protective blister with assay certificate, which guarantees the metal's origin and confirms compliance of fineness and weight with the LPPM Good Delivery standard. The serial number stamped directly on the bar matches the number on the Różni Producenci assay card and allows unambiguous product identification on the secondary market. Opening the blister does not invalidate the certificate, but we recommend keeping the bar in its original packaging for the maximum price on potential resale.
Why invest in platinum?
Platinum is one of the rarest precious metals in the world and at the same time a critical industrial commodity used in automotive catalytic converters (Diesel engines, hydrogen fuel cells), electronics and jewellery. Annual global mine output is approximately 190 tonnes, making platinum about 30 times rarer than gold (data: World Platinum Investment Council, World Gold Council). This natural scarcity, combined with growing demand from hydrogen technologies, creates a unique investment profile - distinct from classical monetary metals such as gold or silver.
Investors building a diversified precious metals portfolio often add platinum as a complement to their gold and silver positions. See also gold bullion bars, silver bullion bars and current precious metals prices.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Is 100 g Platinum Bar Various LPPM Producers an original LPPM investment bar?
Yes. The bar comes directly from manufacturer Różni Producenci LPPM Good Delivery (LPPM countries, since None), accredited by the London Platinum & Palladium Market (LPPM) Good Delivery for platinum. Fineness 999.5/1000, mass 100 g and serial number are confirmed by an assay certificate included with every bar in a certified blister. GoldInvest24 sources its products exclusively from the authorised distribution channels of the manufacturers.
Why is investment platinum 999.5 fineness and not 999.9 like gold or silver?
The LPPM Good Delivery standard for investment platinum (Pt 1 grade) sets the minimum fineness at 999.5/1000 (i.e. 99.95% pure metal). This results from platinum's metallurgical specifics - achieving higher fineness while maintaining the plasticity required for rolling and minting bars is costly and not justified from an investment standpoint. All major platinum coins worldwide (Maple Leaf, American Eagle, Philharmonic, Kangaroo) also have 999.5 fineness, making it the de facto global standard for the investment platinum market.
Is investment platinum subject to VAT?
Yes. Unlike investment gold (which is VAT-exempt under Council Directive 98/80/EC), investment platinum is subject to standard VAT throughout the European Union — typically 23% in Poland and 19% in Germany. The Council Directive 98/80/EC exemption applies exclusively to gold; platinum and silver are subject to the full VAT rate. For certain imports or under specific dealer schemes, the German differential taxation under § 25a UStG may apply, taxing only the dealer margin. The displayed price already includes VAT and is the final retail price; a VAT invoice is issued with each order.
How does platinum differ from gold and silver as an investment?
Platinum has a fundamentally different investment profile from gold or silver. First, it is about 30 times rarer than gold (annual mine output ~190 tonnes vs ~3,100 tonnes for gold). Second, around 40% of annual demand comes from the automotive sector (Diesel engine catalytic converters and hydrogen fuel cells) - which is why platinum prices respond strongly to industrial cycles and emission regulations. Third, platinum has historically traded both at a premium to gold (until 2014) and at a significant discount (after 2015, in connection with the Dieselgate scandal). This different profile makes platinum a valued component of precious metals portfolio diversification.
Can I sell the bar back to GoldInvest24?
Yes. GoldInvest24 operates an investment platinum buyback at prices linked to the current London Platinum Fix (LPPM quotation, twice daily). The buyback price is influenced by fineness (999.5), weight, packaging condition (original blister with assay certificate), serial number matching the assay card, as well as the current market spread. Bars in undamaged blisters with legible assay cards achieve the highest resale prices - therefore we recommend keeping the product in its intact original form.
