• Safeguard: High inflation, recession or spiralling government debt hit savers particularly hard, and with a foundation of fine gold you protect the child against them.
• Denomination: three bars of 1 g each, together 3 g of fine gold with a fineness of 999.9/1,000.
• Finish: cleanly minted, new and in brilliant uncirculated condition.

At a baptism, everyone wishes the child all the best in life. This gift gives that wish a tangible form: three small bars of fine gold that can accompany the child for many years. While paper money loses purchasing power over time, gold retains its substance. In this way, right at the beginning of a life, you lay a foundation for the child's inflation hedge.

Three bars instead of a single one

The fine weight of 3 g is divided among three individual bars of 1 g each. The advantage of this division often only becomes apparent many years later. Once the child has grown up, they can decide for themselves whether to keep all three bars or turn one of them into money, for a special wish, for example. The remaining bars are unaffected and continue to retain their value.

Two fish and the inscription “Zur Taufe”

The packaging bears the inscription “Zur Taufe”, German for “For Baptism”, and shows two fish, which are regarded as a Christian symbol and suit the occasion well. The three bars in their typical golden yellow remain clearly visible. Each of them is marked with its weight and fineness. The loving design turns even the presentation at the christening into a special moment.

What inflation does to gifts of money

A gift of money for a baptism seems generous at first. However, many years pass before the child grows up, and during this time even moderate inflation noticeably erodes the purchasing power of paper money. Gold does not follow this pattern. The amount of gold in the world is limited, and no government can create more. Because it has intrinsic value, gold has never been worthless.

Gold is also a proven choice for crisis protection. It is recognised all over the world and can be converted into cash when needed. As this is investment gold, the purchase is also VAT-free.

A gift for godparents, grandparents and friends of the family

Whether you have been invited as a godparent or are coming to the christening as a grandparent, relative or friend of the family: with this gift, you hand over something that lasts. The parents can keep the bars safe until the child is old enough to decide about them. If you wish, you can add further bars to the small gold holding on later birthdays. In this way, a single christening gift gradually grows into a reserve of gold that the child can one day pass on to their own children.
