Valcambi 100 gram Gold Bar (New in Assay)

A Genuine Middle Weight in Swiss Gold

Valcambi’s roots in Balerna, Switzerland go back to 1961, and it now processes more gold each year than any other single refinery on earth. At 100 grams, this bar sits at a real middle weight: enough metal to carry a meaningfully lower premium than buying the equivalent in several smaller bars, light enough to still handle and store without a kilo bar’s bulk. Every bar ships new, sealed in its assay card straight from the refiner.

The Diamond Logo, Front and Back

The face carries Valcambi’s faceted diamond emblem above the weight, fineness, and an ESSAYEUR FONDEUR hallmark, the mark of the licensed assayer who cast and certified the bar, with an individual serial number stamped along the base. Unlike Valcambi’s smaller bars, the reverse of this size carries the Valcambi Suisse name running vertically along the full length in the refiner’s lowercase script, rather than sitting as a single stamped line. A full wordmark, not just a short name stamp.

A Bigger Bar, A Different Resale Math

Buying 100 grams instead of three separate 1 oz bars lowers your premium per gram, since Valcambi’s fabrication and packaging cost spreads across more metal in a single piece. The tradeoff shows up at resale: you’re moving one bar and one transaction instead of pieces you could sell off individually as needed. One bar, one sale, not several smaller ones.

Backed by LBMA Accreditation

Valcambi holds Good Delivery accreditation from the London Bullion Market Association, the credential that lets its bars change hands between dealers and depositories without a fresh assay each time. That standing, not a signature on the card, is what a buyer is actually relying on. At .9999 fine, the bar also clears the IRS’s minimum for a precious metals IRA. Accreditation travels with the bar, dealer to dealer.

Valcambi 100 Gram Gold Bar Specifications

Every bar holds 100 grams of .9999 fine gold, measuring roughly 27 mm by 47 mm and 4.5 mm thick, sealed in Valcambi’s own assay card with a serial number matched on both. 100 grams, .9999 fine, matched to the card. Full current specs are on the Specifications tab above.

Valcambi 100 Gram Gold Bar FAQ

Is the Valcambi 100 Gram Gold Bar IRA eligible?

Yes. At .9999 fine from an LBMA-accredited refiner, it clears the IRS’s requirements for a precious metals IRA. Eligibility isn’t a close call, given how far past the floor it sits.

Why doesn’t the card carry a signature like some other bars do?

Valcambi’s assayer and melter licences are issued to the company rather than to one named employee, so its cards carry the ESSAYEUR FONDEUR hallmark instead of a personal signature. The licence belongs to Valcambi, not one employee.

Is a 100 gram bar harder to resell than smaller bars?

Not harder, just different. You’re selling one larger piece in a single transaction instead of dividing it into smaller sales, which suits someone consolidating gold rather than someone who wants to sell off small amounts over time. It’s one transaction, not several partial ones.

How do I know the bar in my hand is genuine?

Match the serial number stamped into the bar against the number printed on its sealed assay card, and check that the weight and dimensions match the published specification. The serial matches, bar to card, on a genuine piece.

What condition does it ship in?

New, straight from the refiner with no handling in between. Condition is new, not a numeric or third-party grade.
