Resistance Package

Resistance you can hold in your hand

Cash is becoming scarcer, the digital euro is drawing closer – and the question of genuine financial self-determination is more pressing than ever. The Resistance Package (Richard Werner) offers an answer you can actually touch: physical gold in well-thought-out sizes, combined with the knowledge of why private crisis protection is more important today than it was just a few years ago.

The set takes its name from Prof. Dr. Richard Werner. In the 1990s, this German economist coined the term "quantitative easing" in Japan and is internationally regarded as one of the leading experts on money creation by banks. At Kettner Edelmetalle, he is one of the guests of the webinar on the digital euro. A fitting namesake for a package built entirely around independence.

The coins and UnityBars alone add up to 58.88 g of fine gold: 30 grams in bar form, 4 grams as small Maple Leaf coins, and eight tenth-ounces at 3.11 g fine gold each. Everything is brand new, and the four tenth-ounce designs are from the 2026 minting year.

Why small denominations make all the difference in a real emergency

A 100 g bar is a beautiful piece. But who's going to break into it when, in an emergency, you need to pay for food, fuel, or a night's accommodation? This is exactly where small denominations show their strength. A 1-gram bar or a tenth-ounce coin is a means of exchange that can be used in just the right amount, without having to hand over a large portion of your reserve at once.

Small denominations of gold and silver are therefore among the most popular products for various emergency situations, both at home and abroad. They fit easily into a wallet for travel without drawing attention. And gold is recognized and valued all around the globe. That provides security when card terminals fail, accounts are frozen, or a currency loses trust. Real protection against a range of crises, not just one.

Gold doesn't need to be large to protect you. It needs to be there when you need it – and it needs to be divisible when the moment calls for it.

Four world classics among gold coins

Rather than betting everything on a single design, this package combines four of the world's most well-known bullion coins. The advantage is obvious: each one is instantly recognized by dealers worldwide.

• Krugerrand: The original forefather of modern bullion coins since 1967. At 22 karat (916.7/1,000) with a copper content in the alloy, it is especially durable – ideal for coins that may pass through many hands.

• Maple Leaf: Canada's classic in 999.9 fine gold, minted since 1979. Featured twice in this package, as a tenth-ounce and as a small 1 g coin.

• Vienna Philharmonic: One of Europe's most popular gold coins from the Austrian Mint, 999.9 fine with a euro face value.

• Britannia: The Royal Mint's bullion coin, minted in 999.9 fine gold since 2013 – featuring the defiant figure of Britannia as a historic symbol.

Of course, every choice has two sides. Small coins and bars carry a higher premium per gram than a 1-ounce coin. In return, you get exactly what matters in a crisis: divisibility, recognizability, and flexibility. Many investors make this trade-off quite deliberately, since a large coin simply can't be cut in half in an emergency.

Heimerle + Meule and the Crisis Protection Case

The manufacturer of the UnityBars and the bars in the case is Heimerle + Meule. Founded in Pforzheim in 1845, this refinery is considered Germany's oldest gold and silver refinery and has been on the LBMA's Good Delivery List since 2014. This internationally recognized quality certification also makes any future resale easier.

The Crisis Protection Case is a silver-colored aluminum case containing ten minted gold bars in five different denominations, ranging from a 0.1 g bar up to a 1/20 ounce. Each bar sits on its own credit-card-sized crisis protection card. These cards feature an RFID-blocking function and, when kept in your wallet, also protect your contactless bank cards from unauthorized scanning. Practical for travel, safe in the vault.

Knowledge matters too: book and audiobook

Gold bars and coins are only half the equation. The other half is understanding exactly what you're protecting yourself against. In his Spiegel bestseller "Der digitale Euro – Die größte Enteignung der Geschichte" (NXT LVL), Dominik Kettner explains what the digital central bank currency could mean for savings and freedom, and how to prepare for it. As an audiobook, the same content accompanies you in the car, during exercise, or on a walk.

Lasting value across generations

Gold is humanity's oldest currency. It has outlasted empires, paper money, and countless currency reforms – and has never lost its value. Because it cannot be arbitrarily multiplied, it is regarded as a proven inflation hedge and as a foundation for long-term value preservation. This calm, enduring character is especially sought after when it comes to retirement planning.

Investment gold is exempt from VAT within the EU. Profits from the sale of physical gold remain tax-free in Germany after a holding period of more than one year. Two more reasons that make crisis protection with gold so appealing.

Anyone wanting to diversify their reserve even further can supplement the package with small silver coins. They are excellent for smaller exchange amounts and round out your inflation hedge and crisis preparedness in a meaningful way.

Who is the Resistance Package suited for?

For anyone who wants to secure part of their wealth independently of banks and central banks. For families who want an emergency reserve within easy reach. For collectors who want to combine four major coin classics in one set. And for beginners who want to build a broadly diversified gold foundation with a single purchase – shipped free of charge and delivered directly to your home as insured, value-protected shipping.
