What is mini gold bullion?
The emergence of mini gold bars stems from fluctuating gold prices and the growing interest of individual investors in this type of product. With the addition of mini-golds, the opportunity to invest in precious metals is finally open to all.
Minigold bars are available in weights of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, one ounce and 50 grams, all meeting the certification requirements for standard bullion. These mini-ingots are created by recycling old gold jewelry and/or other precious objects.
First of all, they are melted down and then manufactured by a hallmarking process recognized in major world markets such as Dubai, London, New York, Tokyo and Shanghai. Then, each mini-lingot is numbered and sealed.
The advantages of mini gold bars
Mini gold bars offer an additional option for those looking to divide their gold investment, as they are more affordable in terms of cost. By acquiring a mini-gold bullion bar, you can easily and effectively diversify your portfolio risk. Generally speaking, we recommend investing between 5 and 15% of your assets to preserve your purchasing power.
When you buy, you benefit from :
- exclusive ownership of the ingot;
- an ingot composed of 999.9 ‰ pure gold;
- an ingot certified and sealed in accordance ;
- the possibility of dividing up the protection of your goods more easily;
- a variety of mini-lingots ranging from 1 gram to one Troy Ounce (1 Oz equals 31.1035 grams).
The major feature of this ingot is its small size, which offers flexibility to investors. It’s an excellent addition to diversify your investments, complementing other larger gold bars. Its size makes gold investment accessible to all pockets. With its attractive price, mini gold bullion is particularly popular with small savers and those new to investing in precious metals.
