CoinGold Ounce Bar - Argor-Heraeus Kinebar

In Switzerland, apart from the government-owned Swissmint, there are also some private mints producing bullion which is not legal tender and is targeted at investors and not at coin collectors, such as this one-ounce gold piece.

This one-ounce gold bar is part of a large range of bullion products by Argor-Heraeus, and is part of its Kinebar series with enhanced security.

Argor-Heraeus developed Kinebar technology in 1993 with its partner, Union Bank of Switzerland, or UBS. The Kinebar technology consists of a holographic element that is embossed onto the substrate of the obverse field of minted gold bars.
