Popular Gold Bars around the World

Gold is a valuable asset to invest in because it can be easily liquidated whenever there is a sudden need for cash. While most people do have gold jewellery that came in form of gifts or was inherited in family, there are many others who buy gold in forms of standard coins and bars. Such gold is bought because it can be moulded into ornaments but is more often a tool of investment. The basic principle is simple: buy the yellow metal when you can afford to, and sell it when you see a profit in the deal or need money immediately.

There are over 30 types of gold bars circulating in different parts of the word today. In terms of value, the most heavily traded gold bars - that also have the largest ready market, open round the clock, 5 days a week – are the ‘Good Delivery’ bars purchased and sold through dealers in London. The fine gold content of these bars can vary between 350 and 430 troy ounces. They have minimum purity of 99.5%.

 In the local gold markets of Middle East, India and Singapore the most widely traded bar is the ‘ten tola gold bar’. They have smooth, rounded edges and most of them have no serial numbers. The purity level is usually 99.9%.

Some small cast gold bars in troy ounces are now made by certified refiners. The Perth Mint of Australia is at present the only accredited manufacturer to issue an extensive range: from 50 oz to 1/2 oz.

The Royal Canadian Mint also produces bullion in form of bars apart from coins, wafers, medals and medallions. With a purity of 99.9% and 400 oz weight, these bars are made as per London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) standard.

Regardless of the kind of bars that you have, selling them to a genuine buyer will bring in cash that can be invested or spent for any valuable purpose. And you should start by comparing prices offered online before you sell your precious metals. 

Monetising Your Gold Jewellery

Where to Sell My Gold - Silver and Gold for Cash

You may have collected some gold ornaments over the years or inherited them in family but how frequently do you actually use such things? Not much probably. The pieces keep lying in a box – some of them become too-old fashioned to be used now and some may be broken or too uncomfortable to wear. But gold does have value and it is easy to garner the same when you sell it to a cash-for-gold company. In Canada, there are dealers that will buy your gold, silver, platinum and palladium products irrespective of the form they are in.

The gold content of any jewellery is indicated in karats. Purest gold is 24 karats. As gold is very soft, other metals and hardening agents need to be mixed in it and this reduces the purity to less than 24 karats. Buyer will pay only for the gold content of your items because other metals - with the exception of silver, palladium and platinum – do not have good resale value.

Usually, gold content of the jewellery sold in Canada and the US is marked somewhere. It may be on the inside of your ring, bangle or on the clip of the necklace that you are trying to sell. An 18 karat piece of gold jewellery can have the inscription ’18 karats’ or ‘18/24’ or just ‘18K’.

To keep a profit margin for themselves, all buyers pay at a rate less than the market price of gold. But there are sellers who can enjoy a profitable deal in this scenario too. If the gold jewellery was bought several years ago at a smaller cost or was bought in another country where it was cheaper, the price received can be lot more than what was paid for it then. So the incoming cash naturally feels more attractive.

Know the value of your gold, do your research and choose a trustworthy buyer – your old, broken gold items can bring in a big wad of crisp currency.
