Precious metals bullion bars are available in various styles, shapes, sizes, and even metals. While gold and silver are of the most popular, dont overlook the value of platinum and palladium bars as well. There are many examples of platinum bars available to investors, and right now you have a chance to purchase those bars at random with Provident Metals. Today, we are offering 1/2 oz Platinum Bars in varied conditions from various mints for you to purchase online.
Highlights:
Platinum bars are produced in many of the same styles and types as gold and silver bars. The two most common formats are minted ingots and cast bars. The production of cast bars dates backs thousands of years and consists of simply melting the metal and pouring it into a prefabricated mold to form a shape of appropriate size and weight. Minted ingots are produced from long cast bars. The bar is fed into a stamping press to be cut to shape and then engraved with a design.
Designs
On the obverse and reverse of the 1/2 oz Platinum Bars in this product listing, you will find a wide variety of possible designs. As one example of the imagery you might find on these bars, consider the PAMP Suisse Fortuna Series. These platinum bars are available with Fortunas left-profile bust on the obverse side and a design featuring the weight, purity, metal content, and PAMP logo on the reverse field. PAMP Suisse Fortuna Platinum Bars are produced as minted ingots only.
History
Platinum is one of the rarer precious metals in the world. While gold and silver are more widely available in the Earths crust and in the precious metals marketplace, platinum exists at 1/10th the amount of gold and 1/100th the amount of silver.
