Each of the 20 Gram Valcambi Platinum Bars offered here comes individually packaged by the mint.

Platinum was first encountered by Spanish explorers in South America in the 16th century. However, due to its high melting point and the technical challenges in working with it, platinum wasn’t widely used or recognized for many years. In the 19th century, platinum found industrial applications due to its resistance to corrosion and high melting point. It was used in various industries, including the production of laboratory equipment, electrical contacts, and as a catalyst in chemical reactions.
Obverse design elements on these Valcambi Platinum Bars include the mint logo and identifying hallmarks. The designs are arranged in portrait orientation with the logo at the top; the weight, metal content, and purity in the center; and the assayer’s mark set at the bottom near the serial number.
Reverse visuals on the 20 Gram Platinum Bar from Valcambi Suisse include the mint name and the logo in a repeating pattern that provides visual depth. The designs on this side are best viewed in landscape orientation with the name Valcambi Suisse along the top edge of the design field.
