50 Gram Gold Bar

A 50 gram gold bar is a smart, flexible way to add .9999 fine gold with better efficiency than 1 oz coins and without jumping to larger, pricier blocks. At roughly ≈1.61 troy ounces, these bars are compact, stack neatly, and are widely recognized from LBMA-accredited refiners like PAMP, Valcambi, Argor-Heraeus, The Royal Mint, Perth Mint, and Asahi. Most 50 g pieces are minted in sealed assay cards with matching serial numbers; cast versions exist and often carry slightly lower premiums with a classic poured look.

Why 50 g? You get meaningful premium savings versus multiple 1 oz coins, while keeping resale easy—one piece is simple to trade, and strong brand recognition helps liquidity. Keep packaging crisp to preserve value, and stick to top refiners if you plan to resell quickly.
