Buy Gold Bullion Bars - 250 Gram Gold Bar - Delivery and Secure International Storage

What are 250-gram gold bars?

A popular choice amongst US investors, 250g gold bars sold by GoldCore are a great choice for those with larger and diverse portfolios.

They have a purity of at least 99.9% and are supplied by an LBMA approved refiner. However, whilst they will be cast or minted as rectangular bars, the look and feel will vary. This is because they can be minted and refined by a number of LBMA refineries, as well as government mints. 

Why Should US Investors Buy 250-gram Gold Bars?

250-gram gold bars are sought after by both US high-net-worth investors and those buyers who invest for store-of-value. Due to its neat size, the 250g bar is easy to store and is a great investment. For US investors looking to own more than 250g of gold, you may consider buying multiples which then offers you greater flexibility should you wish to divest from part of your gold holding, at a later date. 

How to Buy 250-gram Gold Bars in the US from GoldCore?

1. You can buy 250g bars with GoldCore by placing an order through your online account, or by contacting our team and placing an order by telephone. Be assured that when you buy 250g bars with us you will only be offered bars that have been refined at LBMA-approved refineries. This guarantees liquidity and a fair-market price, not only for when you buy but also should you wish to sell at a later date. 
2. You can pay for your 250g bar via bank wire, credit care or debit card. Gold bars and coins can be delivered to clients, throughout the US direct from our depository partner vaults in the US,  London, Frankfurt and Zurich You can also choose to have your 250g gold bars delivered. 
3. For many US clients storing their gold bars in fully insured, secure locations in safe jurisdictions is the best option. Access to allocated and segregated storage, outside of the banking system is something GoldCore specialises in. We are proud to offer  secure non-bank vault partners within safer jurisdictions such as Zurich, Hong Kong, London, and Singapore.
4. You do not have to choose on or the other: delivery or storage. For many US clients it is optimal to place come bars in secure storage, and keep others at home. However, we do not advise clients store 250g gold bars ar home as we believe they are better held in secure storage, as offered by GoldCore. This is not only for insurance purposes but also ease should you wish to sell you gold bar at a later date. If you do wish to hold gold at home then we suggest gold investors consider buying gold in 1oz coins or smaller bars.

What Other Types of Gold Bullion Purchases Should be Considered?

Each 250g bar contains 250 grams (8.0376 troy ounces) of gold, struck in 999.9 fineness. You do not pay VAT on 250g gold bars as they are investment grade gold bullion. If you would like to discuss your gold bar purchase, please call one of our advisors prior to purchasing.

We highly recommend you have a strategy call with one of GoldCore’s dedicated team. Over a strategy call there is the opportunity to discuss the reasons why you have decided to invest in gold and your investment horizon. As part of the call we will discuss some of the ways to protect against systemic risk in the US, European, and global economies.

If you have decided to hold gold for the long-term then it is a good idea to hold a variety of bullion i.e. coins and mixed gold-bar formats. By diversifying your bullion allocation it allows for most eventualities and lower average premiums. We find that some US investors often buy gold bars (10oz and 1oz) either as well as or as an alternative to holding 250-gram gold bars. This is because smaller bars offer more in terms of the divisibility and potentially increased liquidity in a systemic crisis.
