Da Vinci".

• Country of Issue & Face Value: Republic of Gabon (République Gabonaise), legal face value of 1,000 CFA francs.

A Design That Breathes History

Hardly any name represents the creative spirit of humanity as much as Leonardo da Vinci. This issue from the Art & Culture series brings three of his milestones together in one scene. The Vitruvian Man in the background refers to Leonardo's studies on harmony and proportion, while the Mona Lisa – "La Gioconda" – is still regarded today as the most famous painting in the world. The reverse shows the coat of arms of the République Gabonaise, flanked by two panthers, along with the inscriptions "1000 Francs CFA" and "999/1000 Fine Gold". The brand-new, mint-condition coin is delivered securely protected in a high-quality blister card that safely presents the delicate format.

Fine Gold as the True Foundation

As appealing as the design may be – the heart of this issue is the fine gold it contains. Its value is primarily determined by the gold content and moves in line with the gold price. Despite its artistic design, you are therefore acquiring full-fledged investment gold: minted precious metal whose substance is what truly counts. The compact format of 15.4 x 11 mm makes this issue an ideal entry point into physical gold investment – especially if you wish to build up your wealth step by step in small units.

Why Physical Gold Belongs in Your Hands

Gold is the oldest currency in the world and has served humanity as a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. It possesses intrinsic value, has never become worthless, and retains its lustre across generations. As a scarce, globally recognised asset, it is highly liquid and can be traded at any time. Those who invest in tangible assets particularly value gold as an inflation hedge and as a reliable crisis protection against political and economic uncertainties.

Small amounts of gold accumulate into a considerable fortune over the years – and protect your purchasing power when trust in paper money fades.

This is precisely why this issue is also well suited as a gift of genuine investment gold for a special occasion: whether for a birthday, christening, wedding, or Christmas – you are not presenting a fleeting object, but a lasting asset. The Da Vinci design provides the personal touch, while the fine gold provides the substance.

Comparison: Small Format vs. Classic Bullion Coin

Large investment classics such as a 1-ounce coin bundle a large amount of gold into a single piece and offer the lowest premium per gram. Small formats like this issue, on the other hand, score with a particularly low entry threshold and maximum divisibility: you can build up your gold holdings in finely dosed steps and sell individual units as needed, without having to liquidate a large position all at once. Both paths lead to the same goal – physical gold in your possession.
