The diversity of options is one of the driving factors in the popularity of gold bars. When you shop for gold bars online, you’ll find options that include 1 oz gold, 1 Kilogram gold, and various other Gram-based weights that range from 500 Grams down to just 1 Gram of gold. This variety of weights makes it possible for investors of any level to diversify into gold.
Gold bars are popularly produced in the form of cast bars, minted/pressed ingots, and hand-poured bars. When it comes to 5 Gram gold bars, you’ll find that minted/pressed ingots are the most common type of product. Minted ingots start out as rough blanks that are fed into presses the apply thousands of pounds of pressure on the blank to form its refined shape and to stamp designs onto the obverse/reverse of the bars.
In select cases, you’ll find detailed designs available on 5 Gram gold bars. JM Bullion has partnered with Geiger Edelmetalle to have our own JM Bullion-branded gold bars produced in this weight, while other options include:
Perhaps the most common features you’ll find on 5 Gram gold bars are simple design elements. Many refiners use simple designs when creating visuals for their gold bars. These include the use of mint logos and identifying hallmarks. You may find that some bars have designs on just one side, while many simpler bars will feature designs on the reverse that simply include a repeating pattern.
