History – The 100 Gram Bar as an LBMA Standard
The 100 gram gold bar emerged as a cornerstone of European private investment during the post-Bretton Woods era (after 1971), when US President Nixon unilaterally ended dollar convertibility into gold and the free gold market was born. Refineries such as Argor-Heraeus in Switzerland and Heraeus in Germany rapidly expanded their 100 gram programmes to serve the surge in private demand.
The Heraeus Kinebar® 100g – featuring a laser-etched holographic kinegram security strip – is the most recognisable 100 gram bar worldwide and has won numerous awards for anti-counterfeiting innovation. It remains the benchmark product in this weight category.
What makes the Heraeus Kinebar® special?
The Kinebar® features a laser-etched holographic kinegram strip – a technology transferred from banknote printing – making it the most counterfeit-resistant private investment gold bar available. The hologram changes appearance depending on viewing angle and cannot be reproduced with standard equipment.
Can I store a 100 gram bar at home safely?
Yes, in a certified home safe. For larger gold positions, professional insured storage is recommended: CelticGold Vault Storage.
