They are valued by their raw gold and contain no face values. and Each bar is stamped with its weight, fineness, and serial number for security precautions. They match sovereign coins in content and fineness, but cost less than coins due to being minted privately. APMEX carries gold bars produced by Heraeus, Credit Suisse, Valcambi, Perth Mint, and other reputable gold companies.

Gold rounds are circular mints, manufactured privately and sometimes produced by the government. They lack face value, but contain value of raw gold. They provide security in gold’s stable purchasing power. Although they aren’t as diverse as gold coins, they can be an excellent choice for those that do want to invest in gold as an anti-inflation hedge.
