These 5-gram gold bars are the second-smallest gold bars available from Australia’s Perth Mint (only the 1 gram gold bar is smaller). In keeping with Good Delivery standards, each bar is inscribed with Perth Mint’s swan logo on the obverse side, along with weight and gold purity. The reverse features the silhouette of a kangaroo adorning the flat gold surface of the bar in a repeating, eye-catching pattern. A raised outer lip adds character to the bar, and a matte finish gives a frosted sheen to both sides.

Each 5 gram Perth Mint gold bar is made of 0.9999 fine gold and sealed in a protective blister pack attached to an assay card containing technical specifications. If the airtight blister pack is breached, the word “VOID” is displayed on the edges. This ingenious tamper-proof design makes it easy to verify that a bar is in mint condition and has not been tampered with or altered. This guarantees the authenticity and makes the appraisal process for resale straightforward.

Due to the smaller size of these bars, trading or bartering in more precise measurements is possible. These bars represent highly flexible investments in gold. Many investors vary their holdings with larger and smaller bars and coins to diversify their precious metals collection. This diversification is smart because it helps hedge against losses in value of any one particular bar or coin. 

The manufacturing process for each bar and the lower weight means 5 g bars come at a higher premium over the spot price of gold than larger bars. Production costs are about the same for each bar regardless of size, and therefore production costs increase as a  percentage of overall price as the size of the gold bar decreases.

Investors can purchase these bars for a precious metals IRA, allowing you to save for your retirement while investing in a physical, tangible asset not stored on a computer system. You’ll have ownership rights to each of your gold bars and may choose to store them, view them, and handle them yourself as you wish. Your bars cannot be hacked or erased, nor are they subject to the “tracking errors” that occur when the price of paper-based gold and spot gold diverge. As the saying goes, possession is indeed 9/10ths of the law.

If you want to invest in physical precious metals, Perth Mint’s 5-gram gold bar offers a good balance of affordability and flexibility. This size also makes a substantial gift for loved ones who don’t quite deserve a 10 gram or 1-ounce gold bar.

How long this takes varies based on your payment method, the size of your order, and your specific products.

How do you prepare packages for shipment?
All your purchased products are packaged under video surveillance to ensure quality control and packages are carefully and discreetly wrapped in generic corrugated boxes. 


 

How do you ship my order?
We ship via Registered/Insured U.S. Postal Service and UPS in discreet, secure packaging. Each package is fully insured and may require a signature upon delivery. Packages take 1-10 business days for delivery. We’ll send your tracking number by email when your order ships. 


 

Is my order insured while in transit?
Yes, BullionMax fully insures all of its shipments. Should anything happen while your package is in transit to you, it will be covered by our insurance policy.
However, we will not accept responsibility if you have left instructions with any carriers or delivery services to leave parcels unattended for you without the need for a signature, or if you have given the carrier instructions to leave your package with anyone other than the addressee. This includes but is not limited to a building manager, neighbor, a business mailroom, drop-off location such as Mail Boxes, etc., The UPS Store, the Military Postal Service, etc.
Additionally, we will not assume responsibility for packages that are signed for by apartment/complex building management, a business mailroom, the Military Postal Service, or any person(s) that are not the addressee listed on the order.

If we determine the package is lost or damaged, we file a claim.
We reserve the right to re-ship your items or refund your money at our discretion.

If nobody is available at the delivery address to sign and accept delivery, the package will be returned to us.

No. UPS 3-Day Air service excludes shipments to UPS Stores, as well as Alaska, Hawaii and APO addresses.

If you have taken possession of a damaged or tampered package, please save all packaging and contact call us at (800) 729-3202 during normal business hours of 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. (PT) Monday – Friday within 48 hours for further instructions.

In those situations, we appreciate your patience to wait a little longer for your package (at least 7 business days) before contacting us. Should the package not arrive, an investigation of the shipment is required before any order is reshipped or refunded. We may ask you to file a police report if it appears loss is due to theft or tampering. Your assistance speeds up the investigation and the sooner we complete it, the sooner we can resolve the missing order.
