The gold Emu is a tiny piece among bullion coins – and that is exactly what makes it so appealing. This gold coin weighs only 1/1,000 ounce, yet consists of pure 999 fine gold. As a worldwide limited collector's coin from the Birds series, the 2025 edition combines a lively design with the tangible substance of physical gold.

A flightless bird as the design – substance made of fine gold

The coin shows the characteristic head of an Emu in profile, finely engraved down to the shaggy feather structure. The Emu is a flightless bird native to Australia – and it is precisely this origin that the design reflects. The motif continues on the elegant blister card: a large Emu stands in a warm Australian bush landscape, complemented by a black silhouette scene featuring trees, kangaroos and other animals. In the lower corner, the lettering "EMU" is displayed. The value side (reverse of the coin) bears the coat of arms of the République Gabonaise, the fineness indication "999/1000 FINE GOLD" as well as the face value "1,000 CFA Francs". As successful as the design may be, the real reason for buying remains the fine gold it contains.

Investment gold in small format

Gold is the oldest currency in the world and has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. Despite its charming design, the Gold Emu is also full-fledged investment gold: its value is based on the gold price, it is tradable worldwide and can be resold at any time. Gold has never had a value of zero, as it carries an intrinsic, physical value within itself. Those who regularly acquire small amounts of gold build up, step by step over the years, a considerable fortune in precious metal. And anyone wishing to give a genuine gold investment as a gift for a personal occasion such as a birthday, christening or Christmas is not handing over a perishable item, but a lasting asset made of pure fine gold.

Strictly limited: only 50,000 pieces

The edition is limited worldwide to only 50,000 pieces. This strict limitation, combined with the popular animal design, gives the small coin additional value appreciation potential beyond its pure gold value. As a rarity in miniature format, it is just as interesting for newcomers to physical gold investment as for anyone wishing to add a special, limited edition to their gold portfolio.

Gold has never had a value of zero – it possesses intrinsic value and is recognized worldwide as a means of payment.
