About this bar

A gram of pure gold. The smallest real gold bar we sell — a first purchase or a gift, not the cheapest gold per ounce. Contains 0.0322 troy oz of fine gold (.9999). Packaging: Sealed CertiPAMP assay card.

A single gram of .9999 fine gold, sealed in a PAMP Suisse CertiPAMP card with the Lady Fortuna design.

This is the smallest piece of gold we sell. A gram is about 1/31 of a troy ounce, so the cost is low and the premium per ounce is by far the highest in the catalogue: you are paying for refining, assay packaging and handling on a very small piece of metal.

Buy it as a gift, as a way to hold something physical, or to see what refined gold actually looks like. If you are buying gold by the hundreds or thousands of dollars, larger bars and coins give you far more metal for the same money.

We say that plainly because the premium is easy to miss when the ticket price is small.

Questions

How is the price of the 1 g Gold Bar calculated?

It contains 0.032151 troy oz of fine gold. At the current spot price of $4,003.95/oz that metal is worth $128.73; our premium for one unit is $15.71 (12.2%), paying by bank transfer. The price updates with spot until you lock it at checkout for 10 minutes.

Why is the card price higher?

Card networks charge us a fee on every card payment. Our list price is the card price; paying by bank transfer (ACH) or wire saves you 4%.

Can it go in an IRA?

Yes: it meets the IRS fineness rules for a precious-metals IRA. It must be held by an IRA custodian at an approved depository, not at home, and the custodian has the final say on what it accepts.

How much gold is a gram?

About 0.0322 troy ounces, so roughly one thirty-first of a one-ounce bar.

Is this an efficient way to buy gold?

No. Small bars carry the highest premium per ounce. It's a good gift and a poor way to accumulate metal.

How will it be shipped?

Fully insured, in plain packaging with no reference to what's inside, and a signature is required on delivery. Tracking is emailed when it ships.
