Question: How should I store it?
Answer: The assay cards are designed for easy stacking. We recommend a dry, secure location like a home safe or a bank safe deposit box.
Question: Will the bar tarnish?
Answer: Pure .9999 gold is chemically inert and does not tarnish or rust. As long as it stays in the assay card, it will remain as brilliant as the day it was minted.
Question: What is the difference between "Minted" and "Cast" bars?

Question: How is the product packaged for shipping?
Answer: Individual bars are shipped in their original, vacuum-sealed assay cards. We add extra protective layers to ensure the card remains pristine during transit.

Answer: While slight variations exist between batches, a standard 1 oz Rand minted bar is approximately 41 mm long, 24 mm wide, and 1.7 mm thick.
Question: What is the "Assay Card"?
Answer: The bar is sealed in a tamper-evident assay card (typically black or red). This card acts as a certificate of authenticity, listing the matching serial number, weight, and the signature of the chief assayer.
Question: What is featured on the reverse (back)?
Answer: The reverse features a beautiful, repeating pattern of marching African bush elephants. Each row shows the elephants walking in the opposite direction of the row above it, creating a unique and iconic African aesthetic.
