Do gold bars have a certificate?

Yes, all gold bars come with a certificate of authenticity. This certificate is not a separate document but is either part of the packaging or enclosed within it.

For smaller bars and all bars from C.Hafner, the certificate is integrated into a hard, sealed plastic case. Larger bars from Umicore and Argor-Heraeus include a printed certificate within a soft, sealed wrapper. Some certificates also feature security or holographic elements to further ensure authenticity. The details on the certificate always match those stamped on the bar itself.

Holland Gold exclusively sells gold bars produced by LBMA-accredited (London Bullion Market Association) refiners. The Good Delivery status is an internationally recognized standard that sets strict requirements for production, weight, and purity. This ensures that LBMA-approved gold bars can be traded globally without additional verification.

Each LBMA gold bar contains the following information:

  • Refinery logo or name
  • Gold fineness
  • Unique serial number
  • Weight
