The Gold Metalor Bars available to purchase through this product listing at Silver.com are minted ingots. There are two popular forms of gold bar production today: cast bars and minted ingots. Cast gold bars reflect a production process that mankind has undertaken for thousands of years when producing gold bars to store personal and sovereign wealth. Minted ingots are a more recent introduction and reflect the refining capabilities of computer-controlled production lines. The result is a gold bar with refined, elegant lines and designs.
All of the 1 oz Gold Metalor Bars in this product listing come to you inside of a sealed assay pack. The pack includes a capsule center to house each specific bar and an assay card around it within the packaging. This card includes the brand name, the assayer’s mark for Metalor, and the signature of the assayer. Also found on the card are the weight, purity, metal content, and serial number of the bar.
The obverse face of the 1 oz Gold Metalor Bars in this product listing comes with the brand name at the top followed by markings of the weight, purity, and metal content. The inscriptions are arranged vertically down the face of the bar with each marking inscribed left to right. The bottom of the bar includes a unique serial number for the bar, as well as a QR code on the bar itself and the assayer’s mark from Metalor.
On the reverse of 1 oz Gold Metalor Bars, you will find one of two potential designs. Some of the bars from Metalor have only the brand name inscribed on this side. Others have a stylized tree that features the periodic table symbol for gold “Au” at the top with branches bearing leaves made up by the triangular recycling logo. “Responsible Refining” is at the bottom of the design for this particular issue.
