What is the price of a gold bar?
The weight of the bar and the value of the gold it contains determines the bar’s price. You should also consider the premium. The premium for a one-kilo gold bar is the lowest among bullion. The smaller the bar, the higher the premium. The prices on our website are transparent; they include all fees and commissions. No unpleasant surprises.
The premium is the percentage difference between the spot price of a coin and the ask or bid price.

Why is a one-kilo gold bar seen as a benchmark?
A kilo gold bar is the preeminent way to invest in gold. While the troy ounce is the official unit of measure, the one-kilo gold bar acts as the benchmark for many investors. At GFI, we only sell bars certified by the LBMA, an association of precious metals professionals who supervise gold and silver markets. The gold bars are labelled “good delivery”, a guarantee that they comply with criteria on their production, origin and quality.
