Heimerle + Meule · Pforzheim
Gold from the Golden City.
It began with the dust of the workshops.
Jewellery has been made in Pforzheim since the 18th century. Wherever there is filing, sawing and polishing, precious metal falls to the floor as fine dust and ends up in the sweepings.
The entrepreneur Julius Dittler founds a sweepings works, a “Kehretsanstalt”, to recover precious metal from production waste.
1845
This is the year the story of Heimerle + Meule begins. To this day, the date appears in the mark of the house.
Inside the works
From scrap to bar.
The scrap
Jewellery, coins, cutlery, dental gold and industrial residues: from these, the house recovers precious metal today.
The pour
Gold melts at 1,064 degrees Celsius, silver at 962 degrees. The melter pours the molten metal from the crucible into the mould.
The bar
At the end comes the finished bar, bearing its weight and fineness. According to the company, the fine metals used are produced in its own refinery.
A house that carries on.
1945
In ruins
On 23 February an air raid destroys Pforzheim’s town centre. The company’s building is also lost in the war. Afterwards, it makes a fresh start in the premises of a jewellery and watch factory.
1977
The Brötzinger Tal
The company moves out of the town centre to the Brötzinger Tal, a valley that had been filled in after the war, partly with the rubble of the old town. Its headquarters have been there ever since.
2010
Bars for investors
Heimerle + Meule launches its investment products division. Today, bars, boxes and cards for investors are part of its range.
2014
Good Delivery
On 3 June the London Bullion Market Association admits the company to its Good Delivery List, the register of recognised gold refiners. It has remained on the list since that day.
Bar in a card
Gold you can give as a gift.
A small bar of fine gold, firmly set into a card the size of a credit card.
A gift that is not used up: for a birth, a wedding or simply as a thank-you.
On the bar
What the marks say.

- The fineness in parts per thousand: out of 1,000 parts, 999.9 are pure gold.
- 1845
- The caster. Since 1933 he has been the emblem of the house. In the round stamp, he stands above the year 1845.
- melter assayer
- The one who melts the metal and the one who tests it. Next to these words stands the mark of the house.
- HEIMERLE + MEULE
- The company has borne this name since the second half of the 19th century.
From dust came a name.
Made to last.
The idea of the sweepings works lives on, too: recovering and refining precious metal has been the heart of the house since its founding.
Manufacturer: Heimerle + Meule GmbH, gold and silver refinery, Dennigstraße 16, Pforzheim.
Investment Gold for Holy Communion – the FineCard by Heimerle & Meule
- Investment goal: With a 1g gold bar you effectively protect your wealth against the gradual erosion of currency value.
- Value preservation: Small gold bars are a reliable store of value that preserves the real purchasing power of your savings and safeguards it over the years.
- Protection: Especially in times of inflation, recession and high government debt, you protect your wealth with physical gold.
- Crisis protection: Small-format gold bars in particular make an excellent, handy means of payment and exchange in uncertain times.
First Holy Communion accompanies a young person for a lifetime – and it is exactly this idea that the FineCard by Heimerle + Meule takes up. Embedded in the high-quality, credit-card-sized card is a genuine, minted bar of 999.9 fine gold. The sacred design gives the whole a personal touch. The real substance – and the true reason to buy – is, however, the fine gold it contains, whose value is directly tied to the gold price. Despite the festive occasion, what you are purchasing here is therefore not a mere gift, but full-fledged investment gold to give as a present.
The Design of the FineCard
The front shows an open Bible with the inscription "Zur heiligen Kommunion" (For Holy Communion), in front of it a silver-shimmering chalice with a host bearing the Christogram "IHS". The scene is completed by a crucifix, a fresh loaf of bread, ripe grapes and golden ears of wheat – the classic symbols of the Last Supper, warmly lit by rays of sunlight. In the upper right corner sits the 1g bar with the inscription "FINE GOLD 999.9", the distinctive gold-caster logo along with the year, and the weight indication "1g".
999.9 Fine Gold from Germany's Oldest Refinery
The manufacturer is Heimerle + Meule, Germany's oldest active gold and silver refinery, based in Pforzheim, whose roots go back to 1845. This tradition stands for precision, a quality management system certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001, and the globally coveted "LBMA Good Delivery" status. The minted bar weighs exactly 1 gram, is Brilliant Uncirculated, LBMA-certified, and bears the "Made in Germany" seal. On the back of the card, the specification "Fine gold | 1 g | Purity 999.9", the signature of Managing Director Georg Steiner, and the LBMA seal confirm its authenticity – a certificate of authenticity is thus permanently integrated.
Small Gold Bars as an Inflation Hedge
Physical gold has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years and is regarded as a tangible inflation hedge. Throughout its entire history it has never had a value of zero, possesses intrinsic value, and is recognized as currency around the globe. While fiat money can be expanded almost without limit by central banks, the supply of gold remains scarce – a key reason for its long-term value stability. It is no coincidence that central banks themselves are among the largest holders of gold in the world.
- Preservation of value and protection of purchasing power across generations
- High liquidity and the ability to trade and resell at any time
- Building wealth in small, affordable steps – one gram at a time
- Physical ownership you can hold in your hand, without dependence on an issuer
Compared to larger bars or classic gold coins, this 1-gram format scores with its low capital requirement: entry is possible with a very manageable sum, and thanks to the handy denomination, the holding can later be sold flexibly and in parts. In this way, many small quantities of gold add up over the years to a considerable fortune.
Gold is the oldest currency in the world – it has outlived all others and will not lose its shine in the future either.
So for Communion, give not a fleeting token of attention, but a genuine gold investment that honors the day and endures at the same time. An additional advantage for investors: profits from the later sale of physical gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. This way, you combine a personal occasion with the solid foundation of one of the world's most precious metals.
