Argor-Heraeus Kinebar 1 oz Gold Bar (New in Assay)

Argor-Heraeus has operated out of Mendrisio, Switzerland for decades and holds a reputation among the most respected names in refined gold. This one-ounce bar carries that pedigree alongside a security feature found on no other bar in the market: the kinebar hologram, a full-surface rainbow-diffracting pattern that makes counterfeiting exceptionally difficult and gives the bar an unmistakable visual presence.

Key Features:

• Purity: 999.9 fine gold (24 karat)
• Weight: 1 troy ounce
• Obverse: Full-surface kinebar hologram with radiating geometric patterns in shifting iridescent color; centered Argor-Heraeus “AH” circular logo medallion
• Reverse: Struck gold surface bearing the circular Argor-Heraeus stamp, text reading “Switzerland / 1 ounce / Fine Gold / 999,9,” a Melter & Assayer mark, and a unique serial number

The obverse is dominated by the kinebar treatment — concentric wave-like lines fan outward across the entire face in overlapping arcs, producing greens, reds, and golds depending on viewing angle. The central medallion anchors the design with the interlocked “AH” monogram. Flip to the reverse and the bar returns to a clean minted gold surface. The Argor-Heraeus circular stamp sits at the top, followed by origin, weight, and purity text stacked in a clear, no-frills layout. Each bar carries its own individual serial number, repeated on the assay card backing for verification.

The bar ships sealed in its original Argor-Heraeus assay blister card. The packaging displays weight, fineness, and the certified assayer signature alongside the Swiss cross, confirming authenticity without breaking the seal. The serial number visible on the bar matches the number printed on the card’s exterior window.

For investors, this bar offers straightforward exposure to one troy ounce of .9999 gold from an LBMA-accredited refiner. For collectors, the hologram surface makes it one of the more visually distinctive gold bars produced by any major European mint. Add one to your cart today.
