FAQ's

Cast Bullion vs Minted Bullion

Cast bullion is created by pouring molten precious metal into moulds, left to solidify and embossed. It has natural imperfections as a result of the casting process, making each bar unique.

Minted bullion is created by striking round and rectangle blanks (or other shapes) of precious metal between engraved dies, on all surfaces of the metal. This creates a uniformly finished product.
