Metalor 20g Gold Bar
Product Description
The Metalor 20g Gold Bar contains 20g 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 20g Gold Bar
Founded in 1852 in Neuchâtel, Metalor refines and mints precious metals worldwide and has been part of the Japanese group Tanaka Kikinzoku since 2016. Its LBMA accreditation is the reason dealers accept its bars without hesitation.
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.
Where the premium starts to fall
Between 20g and 50g the premium per gram drops noticeably. If you are choosing between several small bars and one larger one, compare the total cost per gram rather than the headline price of each bar.
Assay packaging and serial numbers
Each bar carries its own serial number, matched to the assay card or certificate supplied with it. Check that the numbers agree when your order arrives, and store the two together.

Why buy a Metalor 20g Gold Bar?
At 20g the premium per gram drops again, while the bar still represents a manageable amount of money per purchase.
It is a sensible middle size for building a holding gradually rather than committing to a single large bar.
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
Why do premiums fall as bars get bigger?
The cost of refining, stamping and packaging is similar whatever the size, so it is spread over more gold in a larger bar.
Can I store gold bars at home?
Many people do, in a safe or a secure deposit box. Check that your home insurance covers precious metals.
