Gold: Gold as a classic precious metal and investment

Gold, probably the best-known precious metal in the world, has been used as a currency and investment for thousands of years. Some investors also see the precious metal as a potential hedge against inflation or a potential provision for times of crisis. The price of gold is influenced by a variety of factors, including market supply, demand, inflation and geopolitical events. Gold in the form of gold bars (as contained in this precious metal set) and gold coins is a sought-after form of investment for both private and institutional investors. Gold is also used in jewelry manufacturing, the electronics industry and is held as a reserve currency by many central banks around the world. According to many experts, gold is an indispensable component of any diversified investment portfolio.

Silver: Universal precious metal Silver and its many applications

Silver, a universal precious metal, was, like gold, used as a monetary metal. Today, silver is widely used in the electronics industry, medicine, jewelry manufacturing and as an investment. Silver bars and silver coins are popular investment products and are seen by many experts as an important component of a diversified precious metal portfolio.

Platinum: The precious metal platinum in industry and trade

Platinum, a valuable precious metal of the platinum group, plays a central role in the automotive industry, particularly in catalytic converters to reduce pollutant emissions. Platinum is also used in jewelry manufacturing and in the electronics industry. Platinum bars and platinum coins are popular investment products that are valued by both private and institutional investors.

Osmium: Rare precious metal osmium in modern industry

Osmium, an extremely rare precious metal, belongs to the platinum group and is characterized by its exceptional density and hardness. The price of osmium on the precious metal market is strongly influenced by its rarity and the complicated extraction methods. Osmium is used in various industries, including the electronics industry and jewelry manufacturing, due to its unique chemical properties. Osmium bars are popular due to their compactness and are also included in our precious metal set in this form.

Iridium, a rare precious metal of the platinum group, is known for its high corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Iridium is used in the automotive and aerospace industries, where it is used in spark plugs, turbine blades and chemical catalysts, for example. Investing in iridium bars can be a potentially attractive option for speculative investors due to the high industrial demand and extremely limited availability.

Rhodium: Rhodium and its importance in the automotive industry

Rhodium, an extremely rare precious metal of the platinum group, is used in the automotive industry for catalytic converters, for example. Rhodium is also used in jewelry production due to its hardness, resistance and aesthetic appearance in the form of "rhodium plating". Due to its hardness and high melting point, the rhodium ingots are not cast but pressed.

What are the risks of buying a precious metal set?

Like any investment, the precious metals in our set are subject to the rules of the market and can move up or down in price. Our set contains precious metals with historically more stable price characteristics, such as gold or silver. But it also contains more volatile precious metals such as osmium, rhodium and other metals. The latter entail higher risks due to the greater price fluctuations, but also greater opportunities.

How should the precious metal set be stored after purchase?

A precious metal set should be stored safely and securely to prevent theft, damage and loss. Suitable storage options include bank safe deposit boxes, special precious metal storage facilities or secure safes at home. Some precious metal dealers also offer storage facilities specifically designed for the secure storage of precious metals. As far as environmental conditions are concerned, the precious metals in our set are not susceptible to corrosion and other damage under normal temperatures and humidity.

Disclaimer: The selling price of the precious metals contained in this set is based on commodity prices, purity and other quality factors. Precious metals, like all investment products, are subject to fluctuations and their market price can go down as well as up.
