Gold Puma Coin (Mintage: 50,000)

Gold Puma – minted fine gold from the "Animals of the Land" series

Small, gleaming and made of pure gold: The Gold Puma combines a powerful predator design with the enduring value of the yellow metal. Anyone looking to build up physical investment gold in small steps will find an accessible entry point in this 1/1000 troy ounce – and, if desired, can give a genuine asset rather than a mere token of attention. The real reason to buy is not the design, but the fine gold it contains.

A predator in fine gold

The design shows the finely engraved head of a puma in profile, with the inscription "PUMA" below. The big cat – also known as the mountain lion, cougar or catamount – is the largest cat in North America and has long stood for elegance, grace and strength. The value side bears the coat of arms of the République Gabonaise with two rearing panthers, the fineness mark "999/1000 FINE GOLD" and the face value "1000 FRANCS CFA". On the themed blister card, the puma also appears in a wintry snow landscape, framed by silhouettes of other wild animals such as bears, deer and bison.

Small gold, great permanence

Gold is the oldest currency in the world and has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. It possesses an intrinsic value, has never in its history been worth zero, and can be traded worldwide. This is exactly what makes this small troy ounce interesting too: it is liquid at all times, easy to resell, and – unlike many large bars – can be acquired with a manageable investment. This allows investors to build up a physical gold position piece by piece.

The very low mintage of 50,000 pieces also lends the issue the appeal of a rarity and can support its desirability in the long term. Small amounts of gold add up over the years to a considerable fortune. Anyone who holds gold as part of their private assets for more than one year can, in Germany, generally realise a later sales profit tax-free – an aspect that makes physical gold investment attractive for long-term wealth building.

Despite the personal design, what you are acquiring here is full-fledged investment gold: minted fine gold whose value is based on the gold price. Also ideal as a genuine gold investment to give as a gift for a birthday, christening or Christmas.
