The same price for every producer – Umicore, Heraeus, Valcambi, PAMP, Argor-Heraeus, Perth Mint and the rest. What counts is weight and fineness, and those are the same at every recognised refinery.

Why bars yield the keenest price

With a piece of jewellery we have to melt, separate and assay before the material is tradable again. With a bar we do not: it already is the end product. Our margin on bars is therefore lower than on old platinum, and you sit closer to the world market price.

The condition is that the bar is identifiable: a legible brand, the weight, the fineness and preferably the serial number. If the bar is still in its original blister pack with its certificate card, leave it there – we then have less to check.

The commonest sizes are 100 grams, 250 grams and 1 kilo. Smaller bars carry a higher premium on purchase, and you do not get that back when you sell.

Larger lots. From a few kilos of platinum onwards we are glad to make a separate appointment, if you wish at your own address and with insured transport.

Every producer, the same price

Umicore, Heraeus, Valcambi, PAMP, Argor-Heraeus, Perth Mint and the rest: we pay the same price for all of them. What counts is the weight and the fineness, and those are identical at every recognised refinery. That is why there is one table here and not a page per brand.

We check the authenticity by weight and dimensions and with an ultrasound and X-ray measurement. That happens in your presence and does not damage the bar.

In four steps

How to sell your platinum bar

From walking in to payment usually takes less than half an hour.

  1. Leave the bar as it is

    If it is still sealed in its blister, leave it in there. An intact card with serial number saves checking work.

  2. Bring it in

    With or without an appointment, at one of our 45 locations. Bring a valid form of identification.

  3. We verify the authenticity

    Weight, dimensions and a measurement with ultrasound and X-ray. Non-destructive, and while you watch.

  4. Paid out immediately

    At the rate of that moment. In cash or by bank; larger amounts are in your account within 24 hours.

Questions about selling platinum bars

Do I get more for a bar than for platinum jewellery?

Per gram of fine platinum, yes. A bar is already the end product and directly tradable, so we do not have to melt, separate and have it assayed again. Our margin on bars is therefore lower and you sit closer to the world market price. With jewellery those processing costs are built into the price.

Does the brand of the bar matter?

No. Umicore, Heraeus, Valcambi, PAMP, Argor-Heraeus and Perth Mint all fetch the same price with us, because the weight and the fineness are identical at every recognised refinery. Only when the brand, the weight or the fineness has become illegible do we have to establish the fineness ourselves with extra measurements.

What if my bar is damaged?

A dent or a scratch takes nothing away from the platinum value: the weight and the fineness stay the same. Only when the brand, the weight or the fineness has become illegible do we have to establish the fineness ourselves. That costs you no money, a little more time, and it happens in your presence.

Is a small platinum bar worth the trouble?

It is, but do reckon with the fact that a small bar carried a relatively high premium when it was bought, and that premium does not come back to you on sale. Per gram you therefore receive the same as for a kilo bar. The commonest and most favourable sizes are 100 grams, 250 grams and 1 kilo.
