First Aid Package

First aid for your wealth – 259 tangible assets

You pack the first-aid kit into the car before something happens. Not after. The First Aid Package (Gerald Grosz) is put together on exactly this principle: it bundles well thought-out crisis protection into a single order. You receive 17 units of gold and 242 units of silver with a combined fine weight of 331.47 g. It contains German bars and world-famous coins, tiny gram pieces and a full ounce. Everything is consistently split into small denominations that can genuinely be put to use in an emergency – the ideal basic equipment for well-thought-out crisis preparedness.

The package is named after Gerald Grosz. The Austrian publicist, author and former politician is a regular guest on Kettner Edelmetalle, where he talks about freedom, personal responsibility, and how to hold your savings together in turbulent times. This package is the tangible answer to that.

Why small denominations make all the difference in an emergency

An ounce of gold is a fantastic store of value. But try paying for a sack of potatoes, a tank of fuel, or the tradesman repairing your roof after a storm with it. Who's going to give change? This is where large bars struggle. And this is exactly where this package plays to its strengths.

With small denominations in gold and silver, in a barter situation you only hand over as much as is truly necessary. One gram of silver for the small item. A 0.1 g gold bar for the larger amount. In between lie the 25 German Eagles and the Maple Leaf, internationally recognized silver coins that are instantly recognized even beyond your own borders. Precious metals have been accepted as a medium of exchange and means of payment for millennia, across languages, currencies and political systems.

Popular companions for different emergency situations

• Power outage, disrupted payment systems: When the card terminal and ATM go silent, physical precious metal remains readily accessible.

• Banking crisis or currency reform: Gold and silver are not a third party's promise of payment, they carry their value within themselves.

• While traveling and in distant countries: Card-sized formats and mini bars can easily be carried in a wallet while traveling, without drawing attention.

• Everyday bartering: divisible down to the individual gram, from the 1 g silver bar to the 1/10 oz coin.

• Emergency fund for the whole family: boxes and cards can be divided up, so everyone gets their own reserve.

German quality meets Canadian minting craftsmanship

All the bars in the package come from Heimerle + Meule in Pforzheim. Founded in 1845, the company is considered Germany's oldest gold and silver refinery and has been on the London Bullion Market Association's Good Delivery List for gold since 2014. Every bar bears the founder's medallion with the year 1845, a mark recognized by dealers at home and abroad. The clear boxes of the UnityBox protect the silver bars from scratches and moisture. Nevertheless, each bar can be removed individually.

The German Eagle 2026 is a private minting with a face value of 1 dollar, issued for Liberia. On one side, an eagle rises before a halo of rays, framed by "Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit" (unity, justice and freedom) and the motto "Perpetua Securitas", meaning eternal security. The other side shows Germania with helmet, spear and oak leaves beneath the inscription "Für das deutsche Vaterland" (for the German fatherland). Two Maple Leafs from the Royal Canadian Mint round off the package: the silver ounce 2026 and the 1 g gold coin, both in the well-known fineness of 999.9.

Gold is humanity's oldest currency. It has outlived every paper currency – and will give you firm footing in the next crisis too.

Preserving purchasing power – the second pillar

Crises come suddenly. Currency devaluation, on the other hand, comes quietly, year after year. Here too, this package acts as a solid inflation hedge: gold and silver cannot be multiplied at the push of a button, their extraction is costly and limited. Silver is also in demand in electronics, medical technology and the solar industry. The durability of the metals themselves supports long-term value preservation. They do not age and retain their substance across generations. This is why the package is also suitable as a building block for private retirement planning. In Germany, profits from the sale of physical precious metals are generally tax-free after a holding period of one year.

Package or individual purchase? An honest comparison

Of course, a large gold bar is cheaper to produce per gram. Those who simply want to park wealth therefore tend to opt for ounce or 100 g formats. The catch: if the need arises, you always have to sell the entire piece. This crisis protection package reverses that relationship. The premium per gram is indeed higher for mini bars. In return, you gain maximum flexibility, and in an emergency that is hardly something money can buy.

Compared to the Crisis Protection Box XS alone, the First Aid Package expands your reserve by 200 additional silver bars, 26 silver coins and 13 additional gold units. Many investors therefore pursue a dual strategy: larger units as a foundation and this package as a readily accessible reserve for emergencies.

Secure delivery right to your door

The package consists of new goods and is delivered free of shipping costs via insured value shipping, discreetly packaged. Note for orders from Switzerland: item 3333164 is not included in the Swiss package variant, and the package price is reduced accordingly there.

Those who prepare today won't have to improvise tomorrow. With the First Aid Package, you hold crisis protection, a medium of exchange, and security in gold and silver in your hands. Ready for immediate use, carefully divided into denominations, and good for peace of mind, no matter what comes.
