What makes up a bank's bar price

Sell price = metal exchange value + minting/logistics premium + bank margin (+ VAT where applicable). Buy-back = exchange value − a discount. The gap between the two is your full ownership cost: minimal from 50–100 g up, largest at 1–5 g.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a 10-gram gold bar?

The exchange value of the gold in a 10 g bar is about $1,339. Bank prices run higher by a fabrication premium and margin (typically 3–8% on small bars), and buy-back sits below the exchange price.

Why are small bars worse value than large ones?

Minting and packaging costs barely depend on weight, so a 1 g bar can carry a 10–15% premium while 100 g and heavier bars drop to 1–3%. The bigger the bar, the closer to spot.

What fineness are bank gold bars?

Investment bars are 999.9 fine ('four nines'). Values for other finenesses are on our purity pages.
