1/500 oz Gold Fairy Tale Brothers Grimm Hans in Luck Coin

1/500 oz Gold Coin "Hans in Luck" from the Grimm's Fairy Tales Series

• Design: The obverse shows Hans in Luck as a finely crafted silhouette in the style of a paper cut-out – the wandering lad with hat, walking stick and goose, framed by the inscription "Grimms Märchen" in Gothic lettering and playful corner ornaments. The reverse bears the coat of arms of the Republic of Chad, flanked by oak leaves, along with the face value of 3,000 CFA Francs.
• Material / Fineness: Struck from the purest gold with a fineness of 999/1,000, a fine weight of 0.06 g and a denomination of 1/500 oz – compact investment gold in its smallest form.
• Manufacturer: Minted by the renowned Swiss mint Valcambi, known worldwide for first-class minting quality and the highest purity.
• Year of issue & condition: Brilliant Uncirculated new coinage of the 2025 year of issue, delivered in an elegant case with an accompanying certificate of authenticity.

With this coin, you hold physical fine gold in a particularly accessible size. It belongs to the category of gold coins and combines the timeless storytelling art of the Brothers Grimm with the reliable foundation of pure precious metal. The actual reason to buy, however, is not the image but the substance: minted fine gold, whose value is directly tied to the gold price and rises or falls with it.

The Design: Hans in Luck in a Nostalgic Silhouette Style

The design side depicts one of the best-known tales from the Brothers Grimm collection. Hans makes his way home with his bartered goods – captured here as a golden-gleaming silhouette against a parchment-like background, framed by a stylised tree and delicate floral elements. The design deliberately evokes antiquarian book illustrations from the 19th century. As beautifully as this design lends a personal touch, it remains the artistic packaging, while the gold it contains forms the lasting value. On the value side, the coat of arms of the Republic of Chad marks the origin of this small rectangular gold coin.

Investment Gold in a Small Denomination – A Substantial Way to Get Started

As small as this coin is, its core is just as genuine: pure fine gold. Gold is the oldest currency in the world, has been used as a store of value for over 6,000 years, and thanks to its intrinsic worth has never dropped to a value of zero. It is no coincidence that the world's central banks hold gold as a reserve. As an inflation hedge and as crisis protection, physical gold is recognised worldwide, tradable at any time, and highly liquid.

Gold has been shining for thousands of years – and will not lose its shine in the future either. Those who start small lay a solid foundation, piece by piece.

Especially small units such as the 1/500 oz are ideally suited for entering physical precious metals gradually and in a planned way. Over the years, many small amounts of gold add up to a considerable fortune that can be passed down through generations.

• Building wealth in small, plannable steps – ideal for a continuous entry into physical gold.
• Preservation of value across generations – gold permanently retains its physical properties and protects against loss of purchasing power.
• High liquidity – tradable and resellable worldwide, convertible into cash at any time.
• Resilience in times of crisis – a proven store of value when confidence in fiat money wavers.

A note on taxation: profits from the sale of physical gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. Despite the fairy-tale design and the possible occasion, what you are acquiring here is not a mere token but full-fledged investment gold. Give real gold as a gift for a christening, birthday or wedding – and hand over a genuine asset whose value lies in the minted fine gold itself.
