Gold and silver bullion: bars of beauty and value
Investors have been buying and selling Gold and silver bullion for many years. Both as a symbol of purchasing power and as a unique investment, gold has fascinated due to its beauty. Ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans and traders today prize gold as a valuable commodity. Silver is valued for its industrial metal use, uses in health, and uses as sparkling jewelry ornaments.
It is easy to dabble in gold, to experiment with it, and then trade it in. Gold bullion is seen as real money, a rare good that does not wear like lesser metals or paper as it is passed from hand to hand. Even the smallest amount of gold is portable and can be used to buy goods and services. Universally accepted, gold can be easily bought and sold around the world. Certainly if you want to diversify your investments, gold is a good option to have in your mix.
The 10-ounce gold bullion bar of at least .995 fine purity is the standard bar in the industry. Historically it has been used for storage and trading, and one can also have it delivered personally. Individual gold bars are hallmarked by a certified refiner to guarantee its weight and purity.
An even purer bar of gold is known as the troy ounce gold kilobar, a one kilogram bar of fine gold bullion of at least .999 purity. Here too, manufacturers guarantee weight and purity of the bullion content by imprinting their stamp or hallmark on each bar.
Silver bullion on the other hand has been used primarily as a monetary metal, durable, divisible, very convenient, and able to provide optimum utility. Today, silver is most commonly used as an industrial commodity. Industrial demand for silver has grown consistently for the past three decades because of silver's many unique properties, including its unparalleled electrical and thermal conductivity, sensitivity to and high reflectance of light, and its ability to endure extreme temperature ranges.
The 1,000 ounce silver bullion bar is the standard industry unit and traditionally used for trading and storage, but can also be taken for personal delivery. Each bar is hallmarked to certify weight and purity. Actual weight can vary up to 10% in either direction.
The smaller and lighter 100 ounce bar enables investors to more conveniently store and transport their silver. Many kinds of .999 fine silver bars have been created, including bars from the Royal Canadian Mint, Engelhard, and Johnson-Matthey. Unlike the larger 1,000 ounce bars, smaller 100 ounce silver bars are preferred for stacking and storage in a safety deposit box or a home safe.
