The Metalor 10g Gold Bar contains 10g of 999.9 fine gold from Metalor, one of Switzerland’s longest-established refiners. It is VAT-exempt as investment gold in the UK.

About the Metalor 10g Gold Bar

Metalor has refined precious metals in Switzerland since 1852 and is among the best-known names in the bar market. Its accreditation by the London Bullion Market Association means its bars are accepted on the same terms as any other professional-market metal, wherever you come to sell.

This bar is supplied in a sealed assay card showing its weight, fineness and serial number, so its provenance can be checked at a glance.

Building a holding in stages

Buying a 10g bar every few months spreads your purchases across different gold prices rather than committing everything at one level. It also leaves you with several separate units, so you can sell part of a holding without breaking up a large bar.

Assay packaging and serial numbers

The assay card is part of the product, not just packaging. It ties the serial number stamped on the bar to a sealed certificate, which is what lets a dealer accept the bar quickly. A bar removed from its card can still be sold, but expect it to be tested first.

Why buy a Metalor 10g Gold Bar?

The 10g bar doubles the gold of the 5g at a lower premium per gram, which makes it a common choice for regular buying.

It is small enough to sell in part of a holding without breaking up a larger bar, and it fits easily in a home safe or deposit box.

Why buy gold bars?

Gold bars can be a cost-efficient way to buy gold by weight. Because there is no design work or annual issue behind them, the premium over the metal price is lower than on coins, and it falls as the bar gets larger. Bars from LBMA-accredited refiners with an intact assay card and serial number are widely recognised by established bullion dealers. In the UK they are VAT-exempt as investment gold.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 10g bar better value than two 5g bars?

Often, yes. Premiums generally fall as bar size rises, so one 10g bar normally costs less than two 5g bars containing the same gold.

How is the 10g bar supplied?

Sealed in a Metalor assay card showing the weight, fineness and serial number.
