Palladium is a rare precious metal that was first discovered in 1803 by William Hyde Wollaston. The metal was named after the asteroid Pallas, which itself was named after the Greek goddess of Athena. Palladium is in the platinum group of precious metals, but is the least dense of those metals and has the lowest melting point of any platinum group metal.
More than half the world’s supply of palladium is used in the production of catalytic converters in automobiles, which are used to convert harmful gases from auto exhaust into less-harmful substances. It is also popular in electronics, dental equipment, and fuel cells. The increasing value of palladium has driven an increase in demand for palladium bars.
On the obverse of these 10 oz Credit Suisse Platinum Bars you’ll find the image of the Credit Suisse name and logo in its trademark rectangle at the top of the bar. This is followed by the weight, purity, and metal content of the bar engraved in the center, with additional markings of the assayer’s stamp and the individual serial number.
The reverse of all 1 oz Credit Suisse Platinum Bars includes only the image of the Credit Suisse logo, which consists of the company name inside of a rectangle. This appears numerous times on the reverse in a repeating design with the logos set at a 45-degree angle. Each of these 1 oz Credit Suisse Platinum Bars ships to you inside of a plastic sleeve and includes a numbered assay card.
All 10 oz Credit Suisse Palladium Bars in this product listing ship to you sealed inside of plastic packaging to protect the condition of the bar. There is a numbered assay card included that verifies the purity and weight of the bar.
