1g Gold Bar Heraeus

Heraeus Fine Gold Bars – Compact Investment Gold of World Renown

• Investment goal: With gold bars, you protect your wealth exceptionally effectively against inflation.
• Value preservation: The bar acts as a reliable store of value that preserves the real substance of your wealth and secures it in the long term.
• Hedging: Especially in times of inflation, recession and rampant government debt, you can safeguard your wealth with gold.
• Crisis protection: The small bars in particular serve as a handy means of payment and exchange in an emergency.

The 1g gold bar from Heraeus brings physical fine gold in its most accessible form to the blister card. Struck from 999.9 fine gold, the rectangular bar with finely rounded corners measures a compact 15 x 8.7 x 0.5 mm – small enough for your waistcoat pocket, yet a fully-fledged building block for wealth accumulation. The obverse features the well-known Heraeus logo with the stylized tree, the inscription "Feingold 999.9" and the weight indication "1 g". The design is the personal touch; the actual substance and reason for purchase is the fine gold it contains.

The bar is manufactured to the highest international standards at Heraeus or its Swiss sister company Argor-Heraeus – a Good Delivery producer recognized by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). This certification makes the gold tradable worldwide and beyond any doubt. The reverse of the blister card indicates the fineness, weight and the signature of the sworn precious metals assayer; each piece also carries an individual serial number. This popular bestseller thus combines the highest purity with complete traceability.

Investment gold whose value lies in the fine gold

Even though the bar is pleasantly small, its value is based primarily on the fine gold it contains and develops in line with the gold price. Gold is the oldest currency in the world, a proven store of value for over 6,000 years – and thanks to its intrinsic value, it has never been worth zero. Anyone who wants to diversify their wealth appreciates the low correlation of the yellow metal to other assets. It is not without reason that central banks around the globe hold enormous gold reserves: they distrust their own fiat money, which can be created without limit.

Gold has been shining for thousands of years – and will never lose its shine in the future.

As a tangible building block for your inflation hedge, the small bar plays to its strengths. While paper money loses purchasing power year after year due to the printing press, the supply of gold is naturally scarce and limited. It is precisely this scarcity that supports its value over long periods. As inflation rises, physical gold retains its purchasing power – one reason why it has always served as protection against currency and crisis risks.

Start small, build great wealth

The 1-gram bar is the ideal entry point into physical gold investment. It can be conveniently accumulated in small steps, and many such units add up over the years to a considerable fortune. Because its low unit value means it can always be sold individually, you remain flexible: gold has high liquidity and can be quickly converted into cash worldwide. Another plus point for private investors – profits from the sale are generally tax-free, provided at least one year has passed between purchase and sale.

The bar also makes a fine gift: for a christening, birthday or wedding, you are not giving away a perishable souvenir but genuine investment gold that can carry its value across generations. This makes the Heraeus bar equally suitable for long-term wealth accumulation, retirement provision and as a solid foundation to pass on to children and grandchildren.
