The 100 gram gold bar from Argor-Heraeus is a popular choice among investors, appreciated for Swiss precision and the global trust this manufacturer enjoys. Argor-Heraeus is renowned for its exceptional quality standards and has been a leading name in the precious metals industry for decades. The refinery produces internationally recognized LBMA-certified gold bars containing 999.9 pure (24-carat) gold. Each bar has a unique serial number and is delivered in a plastic blister pack that also serves as an official certificate of authenticity. This guarantees Swiss investment gold of the highest quality at a competitive price.
Argor-Heraeus has been accredited by the LBMA (London Bullion Market Association) since 1961 and is part of a select group of five refineries authorized to advise the LBMA. The LBMA is the international independent authority on precious metals, ensuring global recognition and liquidity of these gold bars.
The 100 gram gold bar is one of the most popular options among investors due to its excellent balance between price and tradability. When buying gold, it’s wise to consider potential future sales. Investors seeking flexibility may choose to diversify by purchasing multiple smaller bars of 20 or 50 grams.
The general rule is as follows: the smaller the gold bar, the greater the flexibility when selling; the larger the bar, the lower the cost per gram of gold.
The bar displays the producer’s name Argor-Heraeus, its weight (100 grams), purity (999.9), and a unique serial number. This serial number corresponds to the packaging, which also serves as a certificate of authenticity. The bar also features the inscription ‘Melter Assayer’, confirming that its purity and weight have been officially verified and guaranteed by the Argor-Heraeus assayer. The 100 gram gold bar is a casted bar, meaning it is produced by pouring molten gold into a mold.
Since its founding, Argor-Heraeus has upheld the highest standards in refining and responsible sourcing. In addition to LBMA recognition, the company is also accredited by COMEX (New York), the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), and the Tokyo Commodity Exchange (TOCOM). This highlights its reputation as one of Europe’s largest producers of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, with a refining capacity of 350 to 400 tons per year.
Argor-Heraeus is part of the Heraeus Group, headquartered in Hanau, Germany. The refinery itself is located in Mendrisio, Switzerland. In addition to investment gold, the company also produces for industrial applications and can refine gold to a purity of 999.99.
Argor-Heraeus gold bars are available at Holland Gold in 5 gram, 10 gram, 20 gram, and 1 troy ounce (31.1 gram) minted bars. Cast bars are available in 50, 100, 250, 500 gram, and 1 kilogram weights.
