Types of 1 oz Gold Bars

In a 1 oz size, there are 2 main types of gold bars that you’ll find at Silver.com, minted ingots as well as cast bars.

Minted ingots are pieces of gold that are in the shape of a bar, but with no design elements. The blank is then put into a machine that uses thousands of pounds of force to apply design elements to the blank, making it a minted ingot.

Cast bars represent the earliest bars made by human civilizations. Gold is heated into a liquid and is then poured into a mold. Once cooled, the gold is removed and stamped with design elements on at least 1 side of the bar.
