Why buy this gold bar?

Perth Mint is recognised at every professional bullion dealer in Europe, which translates into very high liquidity on the secondary market. The refinery processes both primary gold (mine-doré) and recycled gold (LBMA Responsible Gold), meeting the highest ethical sourcing standards. Thanks to LBMA Good Delivery accreditation, the bars are accepted without additional verification at bullion banks, dealers and precious metals exchanges worldwide.
Investors building a diversified precious metals portfolio often combine gold bars with bullion coins and monitor current metal quotations. See also gold investment coins, silver bullion bars and current precious metals prices.
