Heimerle & Meule Crisis Protection Package XS

Heimerle & Meule Crisis Protection Package XS – small bars, great security

• Investment objective: With gold bars you protect your wealth remarkably effectively against inflation.
• Investment objective: With silver bars you preserve the purchasing power of your savings just as effectively against the creeping loss of monetary value.
• Value preservation: Gold bars serve as the perfect store of value, securing and increasing the true value of your assets.
• Protection: Especially in times of inflation, recession, and high national debt, you secure your wealth with gold.
• Crisis protection: 32 individually usable bars form a divisible means of exchange for a wide variety of emergency situations – at home as well as abroad.
• Discretion: The flat bars can be easily carried in a wallet while traveling, without attracting attention.

When electricity, payment systems, or trust fail, only one thing matters: tangible value in the right size. This package was put together for exactly that purpose. It combines the compact Kettner Crisis Protection Box XS with additional tiny bars made of silver and fine gold – all produced by Heimerle + Meule, Germany's oldest active refinery. No safe-deposit chunk, no lump that nobody can make change for. Instead, many small, clean units that you can actually use.

The complete contents at a glance

• 1 × Kettner Crisis Protection Box XS with 4 × 1 g gold bars and 16 × 1 g silver bars in 999.9 fineness
• 2 × 0.5 g gold bars Heimerle and Meule (Kettner Edelmetalle)
• 2 × 1/100 oz gold bars Heimerle and Meule (Kettner Edelmetalle), each approx. 0.31 g
• 2 × 0.1 g gold bars Heimerle and Meule (Kettner Edelmetalle)
• 1 × 1/20 oz gold bar Heimerle and Meule (Kettner Edelmetalle), 1.56 g
• 5 × 1 g silver bars Heimerle and Meule (Kettner Edelmetalle)

Adding it all up, this comes to 7.38 g fine gold and 21 g fine silver – a total of 28.38 g fine weight, spread across 32 individual bars. Each piece carries the classic bar stamp with the smelter figure and the year 1845, along with the markings "FINE GOLD" or "Fine Silver" and the fineness 999.9. All items are new goods in flawless, Brilliant Uncirculated condition; details on the respective condition can also be found in the descriptions of the individual items.

Why small denominations make all the difference in a crisis

A kilo bar is a wonderful store of value – but a terrible means of payment. Anyone wanting to pay for bread, diesel, or an overnight stay in an emergency needs units that match the value involved. This is where small denominations show their full strength. A 0.1-gram gold bar corresponds to a manageable amount, and a 1-gram silver bar is even smaller still. This way, you never have to hand over more value than the situation actually requires.

Gold is humanity's oldest currency. It has outlasted empires, central banks, and entire monetary systems – and in the end, it was always still there, unchanged and recognized.

There's also the graduated range: from 0.1 g through 0.31 g and 0.5 g up to 1.56 g of fine gold, complemented by 21 grams of silver in one-gram portions. This graduation is deliberate. It allows for fine-tuned dosing in a crisis, rather than coarse bartering. And it spreads the assets across many units that can be stored, given away, or passed on separately.

Heimerle + Meule: German refinery since 1845

The manufacturer from Pforzheim was founded in 1845, making it Germany's oldest still-active precious metals refinery. Since June 2014, the company's gold bars have been listed with the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA Good Delivery) – a mark of quality that only a few producers worldwide can demonstrate. For you, this means: the bars in this package are well known in the trade, are readily recognized, and can be sold internationally. Made in Germany, in the best sense.

Inflation hedge and value preservation in one package

Paper money loses purchasing power year after year – quietly, but relentlessly. Precious metals do not have this problem, because they cannot be multiplied. A gram of fine gold remains a gram of fine gold, yesterday as in twenty years. This is precisely the inflation hedge that this package offers, and it is exactly what underpins the long-term value preservation. Gold provides the value-dense foundation, silver the everyday-suitable fineness – together they form a robust crisis provision that requires neither a bank, nor a custody account, nor a working internet connection.

Who the Package XS is particularly suited for

• Beginners who want to build a complete basic stock of gold and silver with a manageable investment
• Prudent savers who deliberately want to keep a small, discreet reserve at home for emergency situations
• Travelers who want to carry something value-dense inconspicuously
• Collectors and gift-givers who pass on individual bars as a gift for a christening, birthday, or anniversary

Compared to the larger Kettner Crisis Protection Box, the appeal of the Package XS lies in the low entry point combined with maximum divisibility: you get the same German quality, the same 999.9 purity, and the same flexibility – just on a smaller scale. Those who prefer classic bullion coins get sought-after designs there, but tie up considerably more capital per piece. For pure crisis protection, bars in the gram and tenth-of-a-gram range are simply more practical.

Delivery is provided as insured value shipping – discreetly packaged and traceable right to your doorstep. This way, your reserve arrives just as securely as it is meant to be kept later on.
