The Umicore 2.5 g minted gold bar contains 2.5 grams of 999.9 fine gold in a small stamped format. It sits exactly between 1 g and 5 g in a way that makes gradual accumulation unusually easy to visualise.
Who is the 2.5 g gold bar for?
The 2.5 g format allows smaller purchase increments than 5 g while requiring fewer individual products than building the same total weight entirely from 1 g bars. Multiple 2.5 g bars also preserve greater divisibility than concentrating the full amount in one larger bar.
Umicore lists the 2.5 g stamped bar at approximately 24 × 14 mm with a thickness of about 0.5 mm.

Packaging and certification
The 2.5 g minted bar measures approximately 24 × 14 × 0.5 mm. It uses a noticeably larger face than the 1 g version while remaining only around 0.5 mm thick.
How the price is determined
The price starts with the market value of 2.5 grams of gold. A premium covers refining, stamping, inspection, packaging and distribution.
Per gram, it will generally sit between the economics of very small 1 g bars and larger formats.
