{{/presale}}Minted gold ingots from Valcambi Suisse all feature the same designs on the obverse and reverse in its standard lineup, but you will find a variety of different weights out there to purchase. These include 1 Gram, 10 Gram, 1 oz, and even 1 Kilo weights. Today, you have the opportunity to purchase 10 Gram Gold Bars from Valcambi Suisse courtesy of Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Valcambi Suisse produces its gold bars in both of the popular formats for investment-grade bullion. You will find Valcambi gold products available in the minted ingot format and as cast gold bars. The latter represents the traditional approach to refining gold and offers lower premiums, while the former has a more complex production process and higher premiums.
Obverse
On the obverse face of these 10 Gram Gold Bars from Valcambi Suisse are several inscriptions and markings. The most prominent feature is the mint logo at the top of the bar, a twisted square that has a symbol in the center similar to a throwing star. Along with this logo, you will find the weight, purity, and metal content of the bar included. At the bottom of the bar are the inscriptions of the assayers mark and a unique serial number. Gold bars in this Valcambi lineup feature a two-letter, six-number coding for serial numbers.
Reverse
The reverse of the 10 Gram Gold Bar from Valcambi Suisse has a mirrored field with only one inscription featured. Valcambi Suisse is depicted along the left-hand side of the bar running vertically up this side. If you arrange the bar so you can read the words properly, the name Valcambi Suisse is on the top of the field.
History
Minted ingots such as these are produced with the assistance of machine presses and computer-controlled engraving. Minted ingots all start as cast bars, but the long cast bar is fed into a stamping press that precisely cuts out bars to certain specifications. The bars then pass through a computer-controlled engraving system that stamps or laser-etches design elements into the bars.
Ordering
10 Gram Gold Bars available here ship with a sealed plastic card package and include an assay card from Valcambi Suisse. The reverse of the assay card has the matching weight, purity, metal content, and serial number on it that you will find on the bar itself.
