1 oz Cast Gold Bar (best value)

Name: 1 oz Cast Gold Bar (best value)
Brand: LBMA-accredited refiner

VAT exemptMixed year

Poured rather than struck, so each bar has a slightly irregular surface. Cast bars are usually the cheapest way to buy an ounce of gold because the production process is simpler — the trade-off is that they are typically supplied without an assay card. Not legal tender.

Price break thresholds across all dealers

Not every dealer offers every threshold. Delivery is charged once per order, so the per-unit cost falls with quantity even where the coin price does not.

Premium over spot

Withheld while dealer offers are demonstration data. Comparing generated dealer prices with a live market price would produce a misleading premium.
