Hardly any figure in Norse mythology radiates as much power as Odin, the All-Father – and it is he who opens the new "Gods of Germania" series by Germania Mint. However, what you are acquiring here is not merely a themed strike: it is fully-fledged investment gold. The real reason to buy is the fine gold it contains, whose value is based on the gold price. The Odin design is the personal touch, the pure gold is the substance.

The design: Odin with spear, ravens and Viking power

The portrait-format bar depicts Odin as a powerful, bearded warrior with a winged helmet, shoulder armor, tunic and a long, flowing cloak. In his hand rests the legendary spear Gungnir, while above him circle his two ravens, Huginn and Muninn. A fine Celtic-Nordic braid and knot pattern frames the scene all around. The smooth, glossy background makes the matte, sculpturally raised relief stand out with particular contrast – an effect made possible only by striking in Proof quality. The reverse bears the crowned coat of arms of Germania Mint along with the inscriptions "999.9 Fine Gold" and "1/100 oz". Together with his consort Frigg, Odin forms the first divine couple of the series.

Investment gold in compact form

Gold is the oldest currency in the world and has endured as a store of value for over 6,000 years and through countless currencies. It possesses an inherent, intrinsic value, has historically never been worth zero, and is a scarce good with limited supply. This is precisely where its strength as an inflation hedge lies: while fiat money can be increased at will, physical gold remains scarce and protects your purchasing power. The precious metal also proves its worth as crisis protection: it is tradable worldwide, highly liquid, and can be sold at any time. This way, you can build up a physical gold holding step by step using small units.

Small amounts of gold add up over the years to a considerable fortune – and can be passed down through generations.

For investors and anyone who wants to give real gold as a gift

This bar is suitable for beginners who want to start investing in physical gold with manageable capital, as well as for experienced investors who want to specifically supplement their holdings with small denominations. And for anyone who wants to give a genuine investment instead of a fleeting present for a personal occasion such as a christening, birthday or wedding, this is no mere decorative item, but recognized investment gold. The purchase is also tax-free: investment gold is exempt from VAT. Despite the symbolic Odin design, what you hold in your hand is, above all, minted fine gold whose value is measured against the gold price.
