Gold Vincent van Gogh Noon Rest Coin

Gold Vincent van Gogh "Siesta" – minted fine gold in miniature format

A masterpiece of art history, transferred into pure fine gold: The Gold Vincent van Gogh "Siesta" coin combines a world-famous design with the substance that truly matters when buying – physical gold. However small the minting may be, its value is based first and foremost on the precious metal it contains and moves in line with the gold price. The van Gogh design is the personal touch, the fine gold is the actual reason to buy.

• Design: Van Gogh's "Siesta" depicts two farmers resting during their midday break in a wheat field – a calm, warm scene whose brushwork has been finely translated into the golden relief. In the upper left, the inscription "Vincent van Gogh" frames the image field.
• Material / fineness: minted from 999/1000 fine gold (24 carat), with a fine weight of 0.031 g or 1/1,000 oz – pure, unadulterated investment gold.
• Manufacturer: produced by Valcambi, one of the most renowned mints in Switzerland.
• Issuing country & face value: Republic of Chad, 3000 CFA Francs, official legal tender.
• Format & mintage: rectangular shape (11 × 15.4 mm), year of issue 2024, strictly limited to 50,000 pieces, delivered Brilliant Uncirculated on a blister card with a printed certificate of authenticity.

Anyone who holds this small gold coin from the gold coins range in their hand holds tangible wealth in its purest form. The rectangular format sets the "Siesta" apart like a miniature painting – while at the same time making the entry into physical gold investment affordable.

Design and craftsmanship in detail

The reverse is entirely dedicated to the painting: the resting pair of farmers, the discarded wooden clogs, the hat, golden-yellow wheat fields in the background and a horse-drawn cart on the horizon. Van Gogh's typical, vivid visual language remains remarkably present despite the small format. The obverse bears the coat of arms of the Republic of Chad, flanked by the inscriptions "REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD", the face value "3000 FRANCS CFA" as well as the indication "999/1000 FINE GOLD". This means the fineness is documented directly on the coin itself.

Within the "Art & Culture" series, the "Siesta" takes its place alongside further designs based on great painters. Anyone who brings together several issues builds up their fine gold holdings step by step in manageable increments – small amounts of gold add up over the years to a considerable asset.

Investment gold with a personal touch

This minting is an excellent choice for gifting genuine gold investment – for example for a birthday, wedding or christening. What is given is not a fleeting present, but an asset made of pure gold, whose value is determined by the world market. Especially as an entry point into physical gold investment, the small 1/1,000 oz format is a well-considered first step.

Gold is humanity's oldest currency – a proven store of value for over 6,000 years that has never had a value of zero.

Physical gold convinces through properties that have made it a reliable store of value over millennia:

• Value preservation: Gold has an inherent, intrinsic value and protects against the gradual loss of purchasing power – a classic inflation hedge.
• Crisis resilience: In uncertain times, gold is a proven crisis hedge, independent of trust in paper currencies.
• Liquidity: Gold is recognized worldwide, tradable at any time and can be converted back into cash without complication.
• Durability: The precious metal permanently retains its physical properties and can be passed down through generations.

One tax aspect is of particular interest to investors: profits from the sale of physical gold in Germany are generally tax-free, provided the holding period is at least one year. It is not without reason that central banks around the world hold vast gold reserves – a clear signal of the importance this precious metal holds in safeguarding the financial system.

With the Gold Vincent van Gogh "Siesta" coin, you therefore acquire far more than a beautiful design: full-fledged investment gold from Valcambi, strictly limited, Brilliant Uncirculated and in the purest fine gold – a small, shining building block for your long-term wealth accumulation.
