As an investment-grade bullion product, 1 Kilo Valcambi Cast Gold Bars represent one of the growing number of gold bullion products that investors crave during times of rough economic upheaval. Gold is referred to by many as a safe-haven metal. The term is indicative of the long-term value of gold. At its purest level, gold holds its intrinsic value over time regardless of the ups and downs of modern markets. When those markets struggle and fiat currencies retreat or collapse, gold tends to increase in value. This opposing relationship makes gold a valuable investment asset, and 1 Kilo Valcambi Cast Gold Bars are a perfect example of a precious metal product that investors covet. As a cast gold bar, the less complex production method results in a more affordable product. This is further enhanced by the 1 Kilo weight, which offers a great balance between investment level and price-per-ounce. On the obverse of the 1 Kilo Valcambi Cast Gold Bar you’ll find the only engravings on these products. Included are the Valcambi Suisse logo and corporate name, along with the weight, purity, and metal content of the bar. Individual serial numbers and a year of issue are included on all Good Delivery products. Valcambi Suisse was founded in Balerna, Switzerland in 1961 as Valori & Cambi. After early struggles, the purchase of the young company by Credit Suisse resulted in the brand name known today around the world (Valcambi Suisse) and the improvement of the refinery to London and Comex Good Delivery standards.
