Information
A Umicore 100 gram gold bar is one of the most standard and liquid formats for anyone investing seriously in physical gold. The bar measures approximately 55 x 31 x 3.1 mm. Including its packaging, its dimensions are comparable to a debit card, making it easy to store and transport. Umicore is an LBMA-accredited producer, ensuring the bar is easily traded worldwide.
Within our range, it carries an A-label rating: a popular choice offering a competitive price per gram and a relatively low spread. If you wish to compare different brands or weights first, view our 100 gram gold bars or all Umicore gold bars.
How is the price determined?
The price of a Umicore 100 gram gold bar consists of the current intrinsic gold value plus a modest premium. The gold value moves in tandem with the spot gold price. The premium covers production, certification, packaging, and retail distribution. For a large denomination such as 100 grams, this premium per gram is low, particularly compared to buying multiple smaller bars.
When purchasing multiple bars, a tiered volume discount applies at The Silver Mountain. We update the price on this page in real time, ensuring that we always offer you the best deal in a fully transparent manner.
Minted or cast Umicore gold bar?
This Umicore 100 gram gold bar is the minted edition: pressed from a gold sheet, featuring a sleek and uniform surface. Umicore also offers a separate cast 100 gram bar, which has a rougher, unique appearance due to the traditional pouring process. Both contain 100 grams of 99.99% fine gold. The difference lies in the finish, packaging, and sometimes the premium.
| Feature | This minted bar | Cast bar |
|---|---|---|
| Production | pressed from a gold sheet | liquid gold poured into a mold |
| Appearance | sleek and uniform | more robust, unique |
| Packaging | sealed certificate card | separate packaging and certificate |
| Gold weight | 100 grams | 100 grams |
In terms of intrinsic gold value, the production method makes no difference. Make your choice based on finish, packaging, and the current premium.
Design of the Umicore 100 gram gold bar
The Umicore 100 gram gold bar is recognized by the central UMICORE logo, beneath which are inscribed the weight specification 100g and the purity hallmark FEINGOLD 999.9. Feingold is the German term for fine gold. At the top sits the unique serial number, which matches the number on the certificate.
Certificate and sealed packaging
With this Umicore gold bar, the sealed packaging itself serves as the certificate of authenticity. The card displays the weight, the 999.9 purity, and the serial number, which corresponds to the number on the bar. This links the bar and certificate together.
Preferably store the bar in its closed, sealed packaging; this keeps it in good condition and makes future resale easier. Read more about this in our article on the certificate when buying gold.
Selling your Umicore gold bar: guaranteed buyback via Inkoop Edelmetaal
You can always sell your Umicore gold bar back to us, even when the market fluctuates and even if you purchased the bar elsewhere. We repurchase these bars continuously, and this guaranteed buyback is facilitated through our sister company Inkoop Edelmetaal. For LBMA bars, a bid price of 98.5% of the gold price currently applies. The payout therefore moves in tandem with the live spot gold price.
A trusted name in The Netherlands
The 100 gram Umicore gold bar is a logical milestone for many clients: you purchase close to the spot price because the premium per gram is low, yet the bar remains compact and practical. Umicore is a trusted household name in the Benelux, and their gold is sourced largely from recycled materials. Keep in mind that a 100 gram bar must be liquidated as a single whole unit. What I appreciate most is that you can always sell the bar back to us effortlessly through Inkoop Edelmetaal.

Answers from our expert.
Frequently asked questions about the Umicore 100 gram gold bar with certificate
1. How much does a Umicore 100 gram gold bar cost?
The price consists of the current market value of 100 grams of pure gold plus a modest premium covering production, certification, tamper-evident packaging, and distribution. Because the spot gold price fluctuates throughout trading hours, the purchase price updates continuously. At the top of this page, you will find the live price, spot metal value, premium, and price per gram, as well as applicable tiered volume discounts for larger orders.
2. Is a Umicore 100 gram gold bar minted or cast?
This specific Umicore 100 gram gold bar is minted: it is struck from a rolled gold plate, giving it clean, sharp edges and a sleek, smooth finish. Umicore also produces a separate cast 100 gram bar with a traditional, poured aesthetic, and casts all larger bars starting from 250 grams upward. In terms of gold content and intrinsic value, minted and cast bars are identical; it is simply a matter of visual finish and packaging preference.
3. What information appears on the Umicore gold bar certificate?
For this edition, the secure sealed blister card functions as the certificate of authenticity. It states the weight, the 999.9 fineness, and the serial number. This serial number corresponds exactly to the number stamped on the bar itself, alongside the Umicore trademark and the designation "FEINGOLD 999.9", definitively pairing the bar with its certification.
4. Is the Umicore 100 gram gold bar VAT-free?
Yes. The bar consists of 99.99% pure gold and qualifies as investment gold, which is legally exempt from VAT in the Netherlands and across the European Union. You pay no 21% VAT on the bar, only the intrinsic gold value plus the standard production and packaging premium. This makes 100 grams a highly cost-efficient format.
5. Can I sell my Umicore gold bar partially at a later stage?
No, a 100 gram gold bar must be sold as a single complete unit. This makes one larger bar less divisible than owning multiple smaller bars totaling the same weight. If you anticipate wanting to liquidate portions of your portfolio at different times, smaller fractional bars or a divisible CombiBar are more flexible alternatives, although they carry a slightly higher premium per gram.
6. Can I sell my Umicore gold bar back in the future?
You can always sell your Umicore gold bar back to us through our sister company Inkoop Edelmetaal, including bars purchased from other authorized dealers. For LBMA-accredited bars, we maintain a standard bid price of 98.5% of the live gold spot price. Store the sealed packaging with its certificate carefully; an intact assay card ensures an immediate, hassle-free buyback process, though we can still verify and purchase the bar if the packaging has been compromised.

B-label

Less information
Een B-label staat voor producten die wereldwijd goed verhandelbaar zijn en afkomstig zijn van erkende munthuizen of raffinaderijen. De prijs per gram of de spread ligt echter doorgaans iets hoger dan bij A-label producten. Daarmee zijn ze nog steeds geschikt als belegging, maar minder optimaal voor wie puur kijkt naar kostenefficiëntie.
C-label
Read more
Less information
Products with a C-rating are primarily valued for their collectible characteristics. This may include limited editions, unique designs, or historical significance. As a result, their price is often less closely tied to the underlying metal value. These products are typically chosen by collectors rather than investors focused on efficiency.
