Design

The bar features the Umicore logo, its weight (1 troy ounce), purity (999.9), serial number, and the inscription Feingold — German for “fine gold.” This German term reflects Umicore’s historical roots in German and Belgian mining and metal industries and remains in use because German has traditionally been the trade language in the European precious metals market.

The 1 troy ounce Umicore gold bar is a minted bar, meaning it is struck from a sheet of gold using a precision die. It is a certificate bar: sealed in a hard plastic case similar in size to a bank or credit card, which also serves as the certificate of authenticity. The packaging displays the serial number matching the one engraved on the bar and includes a hologram for verification of authenticity.

Umicore produces its gold bars sustainably in the world’s largest precious metal recycling facility, part of its international recycling division, where metals recovered from electronic waste are refined and reused.

1 Troy Ounce

One troy ounce equals 31.103 grams. The name originates from the French city of Troyes, which was an important European trading center during the Middle Ages. This city introduced a standard unit for trading precious metals. Today, the troy ounce remains the most widely used unit for gold and silver. The international gold price is quoted in U.S. dollars per troy ounce, making it the global standard. Note that a troy ounce is not the same as the regular ounce used for everyday goods, which weighs 28.35 grams.
