Small bars carry a higher premium per gram (minting, packaging, certificate). All prices in euros; investment gold is VAT-free.
The smallest gold bar
The 1 g bar is minted, sealed and supplied on a card with a certificate. It is popular as a gift for births or christenings and as a low-cost way to try physical gold.
Small bars are harder to verify, because weight and dimensions leave little room for measurement, so buy only from established dealers. As the price is far below 2,000 EUR, you can usually pay cash without ID. Like all bars of at least 995/1000 purity, it is VAT-free in Germany, and gains are tax-free after more than one year.
Premium versus metal value
No other bar carries such a large premium: you pay 134.91 EUR for gold worth 118.34 EUR. Minting and packaging cost almost the same as for a much bigger bar. A thousand of them would cost 134,908.34 EUR, while one 1 kg bar costs 120,234.10 EUR.
Who should buy it
It makes sense for gifts and very small reserves. For building wealth, a 10 g bar or larger is usually cheaper per gram. Keep the card sealed to make resale easier. Prices are indicative.
