Investing in Gold Just Got More Secure

Have you ever walked past a storm drain or gotten into an elevator and been struck by the momentary panic of, “oh no, what if my keys somehow fall out of my pocket into the storm drain and are lost forever?” Maybe you’ve thought, “what if my phone slips out of my hand, bounces on the floor, and tumbles down the elevator shaft?” We know the feeling. Tiny important objects can be way too easy to lose. 

The worry about dropping your phone down an elevator shaft might be especially amplified as you’re idly walking down a hallway scrolling through your news feed. You’re watching the price of gold tick higher and higher, wondering how you’ll be able to invest in precious metals at these rates. At more than 3,000 per ounce, those prices would make anybody drop their phone. 

With fractional quantities available, investing in gold has never been easier. However, ease of ownership doesn’t always translate to ease of storage. For example, Valcambi gold bar products are sold as tiny objects that look exactly like their classic larger counterparts. They’re smaller than a fun-size candy bar, so they don’t take up much room. Fractional gold that mimics the form factor of larger gold bars can be a fun novelty, but have you considered how easy it is to misplace these objects? At less than 20 x 30 millimeters wide, fractional gold bars can be easily mishandled, stolen, or dropped. As cool as they look, their physical size is just impractical for most collectors. In addition, tiny one-gram bars may be more challenging to exchange or barter with due to these same concerns. Because of the risk of loss, other collectors may be reluctant to accept them.

Fortunately, tiny bars like those sold by PAMP and Valcambi Suisse aren’t the only path to fractional gold investment. If you’re interested in gold investment but concerned about the possibility of misplacing or losing small gold bars, don’t worry!
