2 gram Gold Bars

Of all the gold bars issued in gram weights, 2-gram gold bars may be the rarest. Although some of the top producers ostensibly release gold bars at this weight, the reality is that most of them split the difference between 1-gram and 5-gram bars and offer 2.5-gram bars.

So, the selection of 2-gram gold bars on Provident Metals is much more scarce than other denominations. However, the bars we do have available are high-quality items to own.

The 2- Gram Gold Bars on Provident Metals

There are two 2-gram gold bars available with Provident. Both of them are products from Argor Heraeus. Argor Heraeus is part of a triumvirate of venerable Swiss refiners.

Along with Valcambi and PAMP Suisse, Argor has produced innovative high-quality gold products for decades. Here are the 2-gram offerings from Argor that we have:

• 2 Gram Gold Bar – New with Assay: This bar features 2 grams minted at a .9999 purity level. Its obverse features the Argor Heraeus seal, the bar’s weight, the inscription “Fine Gold,” and the purity mark – expressed as “999,9.” Finally, each bar bears the stamp and serial number of its assayer. Every bar is independently certified to be authentic and genuine.
• 2 Gram Gold Kinebar Bar – New with Assay: In terms of composition, size, and obverse design, this bar is identical to the other 2-gram Argor Heraeus gold bar. However, the reverse of this bar features a kinegram, Argor Heraeus’ trademark hologram feature that serves as an additional layer of security against counterfeiting and fraud. No other gold refiner issues kinebars, so this bar is certainly unlike the rest in your collection.

Why You Should Buy 2-Gram Gold Bars

The decision to buy a gold bar with a weight less than a troy ounce is almost always rooted in cost savings. Gold’s recent performance has made buying tremendous amounts of it quite expensive, and smaller bars and coins create an opportunity to buy gold for more people.

However, the counterargument against buying smaller is that the premium percentage escalates as size declines. In other words, the absolute cost to buy is lower, but you are getting a worse deal on a unit cost basis.

As 1-gram gold bars are the least cost-effective way to buy gold, 2-gram gold bars offer a slightly better deal to you, pound-for-pound. It’s always better to buy as large as you can, even if there’s only a gram’s worth of difference.
