Spot price is always in terms of the U.S. dollar but nobody is allowed to purchase precious metals at their spot price. Gold bars present investors with an economical way to add gold to their investment portfolio because gold bars have a lower premium over spot than gold coins. Gold bars are available in many different sizes from 1 gram to 1 kilo, with the most common size being 1 Troy oz. The convenient size makes gold bars easy to store in a relatively small space. 

The casted gold bar from RMC offers a clean, minimalistic design that focuses on the purity of the gold. Cast bars are produced by pouring melted gold into an ingot mold in order to shape the gold in bar form. In contrast, minted bars are hand cut to the specified dimensions from a flat piece of gold. Presses, in most cases, apply markings to the gold bar. Each bar comes with an assay certificate that includes a matching serial number to verify the authenticity of the bar.

Republic Metals Corporation (RMC) started in 1980 and has been producing high quality metals from their headquarters in Miami, Florida ever since. Today, RMC is among the largest full service refineries of precious metals in the world. Annually, RMC refines 7,000 tons of silver and gold in a state of the art 150,000 square foot facility.

Their proprietary green refining technology allows them to offer some of the most competitive terms in the refining industry. This technology allows RMC to be an example for what it means to be environmentally friendly. The company has a long-standing ISO4001 registration and is also an ISO 9001: 2008 registered company. RMC is recognized as a "Responsible Gold Party," by LBMA(London Bullion Market Bullion Association), meaning that all business is conducted according to the Patriot Act and supply chain policies. 

Gold is believed to be so rare that the world pours more steel an hour than gold has been poured since the beginning of time. Compared to diamonds, gold is much rarer. In fact, it is more common to find a five-carat diamond than a 1 oz gold nugget. "Worth its weight in gold," is a common saying and takes on a new meaning when you consider one cubic foot of gold would weigh half a ton. The ocean is believed to be home to over 10 billion tons of gold. Unfortunately, there is no economical way to recover it.

Gold bars are a practical way for clients of the U.S. Gold Bureau to diversify their portfolios with precious metals.
