1/100 oz Gold Heimerle und Meule Malta Minted Bar

Fine gold in miniature format: the 1/100 oz Malta minted bar

• Investment goal: Anyone who wants to effectively protect their savings against the creeping devaluation of money relies on gold bars. This minted bar is a particularly fine building block for that.
• Value preservation: Fine gold has been regarded as a reliable store of value for thousands of years. It preserves the real purchasing power of your wealth instead of silently eroding it.
• Protection: Inflation, recession, runaway national debt: especially in such times, you protect your wealth with gold, humanity's oldest currency.
• Crisis protection: A tiny unit with an official face value that is understood worldwide. This makes the minted bar an ideal medium of exchange in an emergency.

Small, flat, unassuming. And yet this minted bar contains genuine investment gold: around 0.31 g of fine gold (1/100 oz) with a fineness of 999.9/1,000, minted by Heimerle + Meule in Pforzheim. Hardly any other format allows such a low-cost entry into physical precious metal. For your inflation hedge, this means: you build wealth in small steps, and each individual piece remains tradable on its own.

Crisis protection that fits in every wallet

When banks close, card payments fail, or a currency goes into a tailspin, what matters is what you hold in your hand. Large bars are often unwieldy in such moments. Who would trade a whole ounce for a week's groceries? This is exactly where small denominations show their strength. The 1/100 oz minted bar is so finely graduated that it is also suitable as a medium of exchange for smaller values, both at home and abroad.

The CoinBar Card in credit-card format can easily be carried in your wallet while traveling, without attracting attention. At the same time, it protects the fine gold from scratches and fingerprints. Discreet, secure, and always within reach.

• Protection against various crises: Physical gold is independent of banking systems and political promises.
• Medium of exchange in an emergency: With such small units, smaller exchange transactions are also possible without having to divide a larger bar.
• Recognized worldwide: Fine gold is understood and valued in almost every country on Earth.
• Cleverly combinable: It complements other small denominations in gold and silver, which are among the most popular products for various emergency situations.

Minted bars: the best of both bars and coins

Bars with a coin stamp are called minted bars. At first glance, they look like a classic gold bar. However, the stamped face value gives them the status of a coin, and they are legal tender in their country of issue. Here, that is Malta. The minted bar features the Maltese Cross as its central design and bears the country designation MALTA, a euro face value, and the year of issue 2026. The Malta CoinBars were created in cooperation with the Central Bank of Malta and the Royal Dutch Mint. They are manufactured in Germany.

The lower field carries the Melter-Assayer stamp with the year 1845, the manufacturer's quality mark. As a personal touch, the card displays the silhouette of Valletta. The minted bar is delivered in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition and with a certificate of authenticity.

Heimerle + Meule: tradition from Baden-Württemberg

Since 1845, Heimerle + Meule has stood for precious metals expertise from Pforzheim. The company is Germany's oldest gold and silver refinery and today the parent company of the internationally active HM Precious Metals. For investors, this means German minting quality, verified fineness, and a manufacturer name that the precious metals trade knows and values. If you wish to sell the minted bar later on, this is a real advantage.

The little brother in comparison

The Malta CoinBars are also available with 0.5 g and 1 g of fine gold. Anyone wanting more gold per piece is better served there, since the premium per gram decreases as size increases. Classic minimal bars without a face value, such as the Secain Card, also 1/100 oz, are pure bars. Even the smallest Vienna Philharmonic at 1/25 oz weighs considerably more. The 1/100 oz Malta minted bar, on the other hand, offers both: maximum divisibility and official coin status. This combination is rarely found.

Value preservation and inflation hedge in small steps

Gold has never had a value of zero. It is scarce, cannot be multiplied at will, and retains its physical properties for centuries. Fiat money is printed by central banks, and these very central banks are among the largest gold holders in the world. That says a lot.

Gold is God's money. It has shone for thousands of years and will never lose that shine.

The value preservation of this minted bar is based primarily on its fine gold content, and its value tracks the gold price. This makes every piece a tangible part of your inflation hedge. Anyone who regularly buys small amounts can build up considerable wealth over the years and pass it on to the next generation. Profits from sale are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.

Would you like to give a genuine gold investment as a gift for a christening, wedding, or birthday? Then this minted bar is an ideal entry point into physical gold investment. It is not a mere souvenir, but fully-fledged investment gold with official coin status, whose value is based on its fine gold content.
