The Gold Grizzly Bear coin brings a piece of North American wilderness in the purest gold into the smallest of spaces. As an issue in the "Animals on Land" series, it combines a powerful, detail-rich animal design with the enduring value of physical fine gold. As small as the coin is – its true appeal lies not in its appearance alone, but in the precious metal it contains.

Fully-fledged investment gold in miniature format

The value of this gold coin is based primarily on the fine gold it contains and moves in line with the gold price. This places it among the great family of gold coins that investors have always valued for preserving wealth. Gold is the oldest currency in the world, has never had a value of zero, and retains its shine over millennia. Anyone who regularly acquires small amounts of gold builds wealth step by step – small units add up over the years to a considerable holding.

• Wealth preservation: Physical gold is considered a proven store of value and an inflation hedge against the gradual loss of purchasing power.
• Protection: In uncertain times, gold serves as crisis protection and as an internationally recognized medium of exchange with intrinsic value.
• Tradability: The coin is liquid worldwide, can be resold at any time, and is easily converted into cash.
• Tax aspect: Profits from the sale of investment gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.

Design and craftsmanship in detail

The obverse shows the expressive portrait of a grizzly bear, surrounded by the delicate lettering "GRIZZLY BEAR". The reverse bears the coat of arms of Gabon with two upright panthers, the sailing ship on the shield, as well as the inscriptions RÉPUBLIQUE GABONAISE, 999/1,000 FINE GOLD and 1,000 FRANCS CFA. Despite its small size of only 16 millimeters, the strike is remarkably detailed – a testament to the manufacturer's production quality.

Who is the Grizzly Bear gold coin suitable for?

This issue is aimed at investors seeking an entry into physical gold investment in small, budget-friendly steps – and at anyone who wants to pass on genuine investment gold. Even for a personal occasion such as a birthday, christening, or Christmas, you're not giving a mere token gift here, but a real asset made of fine gold. Those who prefer larger quantities of precious metal will find a complement in heavier gold bars or classic bullion coins; as a compact building block, gold is also the bigger sibling of the smaller silver. For building a broadly diversified precious metals holding, this special small coin is a handy and attractively presented entry point.

Despite the animal design, what you are acquiring here is fully-fledged investment gold: minted fine gold of 999/1,000 fineness, whose value is based on the gold price.
