Theres nothing better than a product with the history of a company founded over 150 years ago. Credit Suisse first opened its doors long before planes and automobiles crisscrossed the globe, and continues its operations today as one of the preeminent precious metal refiners and financial institutions in the world. The 1 oz gold bar is the most popular single product in the precious metals industry. Countless individuals invest in 1 oz bars because the lower weight is more affordable than others and can easily be moved or stored. At the same time, a 1 oz gold bar still offers a significant initial investment in gold. On the obverse face of the bar youll find the Credit Suisse logo engraved at the top of the bar. Additional engravings on this side include the bars weight, metal content, and purity. The assayers mark and individual serial number are also included on this face. The reverse face of the bar again features the block logo of Credit Suisse. This time it is stamped in a repeating image that is set on a 45-degree angle. Each 1 oz Credit Suisse Gold Bar ships to you in a tamper-evident package, and the included assay card allows you to quickly verify the weight, purity, and serial number of the bar.
