Bars arrive inside of protective plastic packaging! Available from various mints! Contains 250 Grams (8.038 Troy oz) of .999 or .9999 pure gold. Design and style dependent upon issuing mint/refinery. Bars listed here come in varied conditions. Please note you may receive several bars with the same design and condition if you buy more than one. 250 Gram Gold Bars are a popular weight as they offer an option that falls between the common 1 oz and 10 oz products. Youll find 250 Gram Gold Bars produced as cast bars with rustic appeal and minted ingots with refined edges and intricate designs. Examples of 250 Gram Gold Bars commonly produced include those that come from Swiss refiners such as PAMP Suisse and Valcambi Suisse. The latter refiner produces 250 Gram Gold Bars in both cast and minted ingot versions. In both cases, Valcambi Suisse gold bars have the mint logo along with the purity, metal content, and weight of the bar engraved. While both bars feature a serial number, only the minted ingots from Valcambi have a reverse design that includes only the mint name. The same can be said of PAMP Suisse products. The worlds leading bullion brand, PAMP produces both cast bars and minted ingots in 250 Grams that feature the mint logo, weight, purity, metal content, and serial number of the bar as the primary elements. While the minted ingot again has a reverse design, the cast bar has a blank reverse. PAMP Suisse also offers options with intricate designs though. The famed Fortuna Gold Bar is available from PAMP Suisse in a 250 Gram weight. Rather than simple engravings on the primary face, these bars have the left-profile bust of Fortuna, the Roman goddess of fortune.
