The HELVETIA gold ounce

You will receive the gold in the form of HELVETIA gold ounces. This is a superior ounce of fine Swiss gold of maximum purity (999.9 ‰) and Good Delivery quality. Helvetia represents Switzerland and features on the face of the gold ounce. The reverse side contains information about the purity and weight, as well as the stamp of the quality seal of manufacturer Argor Heraeus SA. The manufacturer's seal is a guarantee of authenticity, tradeability and superior embossing quality.

The HELVETIA gold ounce is not numbered, not dated and does not feature any nominal value. This ensures that the buying price does not command a supplement as a collector's piece. You will thus benefit from the most affordable investment ounce worldwide with the HELVETIA gold ounce (31.1035 grams). The 1/5 HELVETIA gold ounce weighs 6.22 grams and offers you the possibility to invest in small units close to the material value.
