Small minted bars are usually sealed in a tamper-evident assay card showing the weight, fineness and serial number. Making and packing a tiny bar costs almost as much as a larger one, so the premium per gram is the highest in the range. The 1 g bar suits gifts and first purchases more than building a large holding.
Small gold bars are a simple way to start buying gold or to add to a holding regularly. Gold is valued by weight and purity, so a bar of 999.9 fine gold is priced the same way anywhere in the world. The main difference between sizes is the premium, which falls as the bar gets larger.
A 1 g gold bar is priced live from the gold spot price plus a stated premium of 18%, in any of six currencies. At checkout your price is locked for 10 minutes while you confirm your order. You then pay by bank transfer (UK Faster Payments, SEPA or SWIFT), quoting your order number. Any VAT for your delivery country is shown before you order.

Small minted bars are usually sealed in a tamper-evident assay card that shows the weight, fineness, refiner and serial number. Keeping the card sealed makes the bar easier to verify and sell.
