Description
Minted bars (sometimes called wafers) are cut from specially prepared rolled metal sheets. Our bars have a very high quality finish, guaranteed purity and are produced in the same facility as our minted coins. Our standard minted bars show Valcambi's Hallmark (logo, weight, metal name, fineness, essayeur fondeur and bar number). On the reverse is written Valcambi Suisse.
Our old standard minted bars show only Valcambi's name on both sides.
Our bars are accepted world-wide and can be ordered in three different package formats:
- Security sealed in a PETG blister packed together with a cardboard serial numbered certificate in the size of a credit card (available only for gold bars from 1 g to 100 g). This packaging system has been devised to provide superior protection against tampering and also offers an attractive presentation of the ingot.
- Sealed in a PVC blister with a separate serial numbered certificate. The PVC bag is the packaging standard for gold bars in the 250-500 g range (also available for platinum, palladium and silver).
- Valcambi can also provide customized packaging, including a security sealed version with an integrated cardboard serial numbered certificate to suit clients' individual requirements.
For example, if you have a Credit Suisse gold bar that is marked “CEI”, then it is fake. Two other details to check are the edges of the mintmark and the scale of the relief, both of which are hard for counterfeiters to replicate. The relief is usually a standard depth to allow the bars to stack on top of one another. Pamp Suisse Gold Bar With Serial Number. If you want to know how to buy Gold bars and get serial numbers, know that there are very few precious metals vendors that will offer to sell you serial number gold bars and then give you the option of having those bars shipped to you or have them stored at one of several vault facilities in fully allocated, insured storage and give you the serial.
