The Valcambi 100 g minted gold bar contains 100 grams of fine gold in a precisely finished minted format. It carries the same nominal weight as the cast 100 g version but differs in production method, geometry, surface and packaging logic.
Who is the 100 g minted bar for?
The closest comparison is the Valcambi 100 g cast bar. Both products can contain the same nominal weight and fineness. The important difference is how the bar is produced.
Minted bars generally have more uniform dimensions, defined edges and a controlled surface finish, while cast bars retain the natural surface variations associated with the casting process.
Compared with 2 × 50 g, one 100 g bar also reduces product count but sacrifices the ability to keep half of the position separate.
About Valcambi
Valcambi has operated in Balerna, Switzerland, since 1961. The refinery manufactures minted and cast precious-metal products across a broad range of weights.
It is represented on the LBMA Gold Good Delivery List.
Packaging and certification
The 100 g minted bar measures approximately 47.00 × 27.00 × 4.50 mm. It shares the same length and width as the 50 g minted version but is substantially thicker to accommodate twice the gold weight.
How the price is determined
The base value reflects 100 grams of gold. A premium is added for refining, minting, finishing, inspection, packaging and distribution.
That premium can differ from the cast 100 g version.
