On the bar
What the stamp says
The loupes show the marks just as they stand on the bar.
Minted bars
Clean lines, a crisp strike
On a minted bar, lettering and marks stand out sharply on a smooth surface, and the edges are straight. The house describes its minted bars as clean in design and finely made, with a distinctive strike.
On the back, the medallion with the caster and 1845 is repeated many times.
Heimerle + Meule
A house from Pforzheim
Recovering and refining precious metal has been at the heart of the house since its founding. Today it recovers gold and silver from jewellery, coins, dental gold alloys, silverware and silver-plated cutlery, as well as from industrial residues.
Chronicle
The chronicle of the house
- 1845
Julius Dittler founds a sweepings works, a “Kehretsanstalt”, in Pforzheim to recover precious metal from production waste on behalf of his customers.
- 1945
In the war the company building is destroyed, according to the house on 23 February. The house finds new premises at the jewellery and watch factory Knoll + Pregitzer.
- 1977
The house leaves the town centre and moves into premises in the Brötzinger Tal industrial area.
- 2010
The house introduces its investment products division.
- 2014
On 3 June the LBMA, the association of the London precious metals market, admits Heimerle + Meule to its Good Delivery List for gold, the register of accredited refiners.
LBMA
What the London list means
The LBMA’s Good Delivery List names the refiners whose bars may be delivered into the London market.
It refers to large bars: for gold between 350 and 430 fine ounces, about 10.9 to 13.4 kilograms. Smaller bars do not count in London wholesale trading, so a bar of 20 g is not a Good Delivery bar.
The print “LBMA Good Delivery Refiner” on the packaging therefore refers to the house, not to the individual bar.

20g Gold Bar Heimerle und Meule: versatile format in minted fine gold, made in Germany
- Investment goal: With a gold bar of this size, you give your wealth effective protection against inflation.
- Preserving value: Gold has served as a reliable store of value for thousands of years and holds the substance of your wealth together.
- Protection: Especially when inflation, recession and high government debt come together, this bar is a valuable support for your crisis protection.
- Crisis protection: Small gold bars like this one can be used as a means of exchange in a crisis without you having to part with large values all at once.
- Origin: manufactured in Germany by Heimerle und Meule, with certificate of authenticity
Some decisions have an effect far beyond the day on which they are made. Anyone who invests part of their wealth in fine gold often thinks of children and grandchildren as well. The 20g Gold Bar Heimerle und Meule offers a solid foundation for this: it is minted in Germany, has a fineness of 999.9/1,000 and can be used in many ways as a building block for your inflation hedge.
Why twenty grams are so versatile
With a fine weight of 20 g, this bar combines a substantial equivalent value with a format that is easy to store and can be used on its own when needed. Over the years, you can acquire several such bars instead of tying up your reserve in a single large piece. If you later need only part of it, you hand over exactly one bar and keep the rest.
The markings of the bar
At the very top, the minting states the weight, designation and fineness of the metal. At the centre is a circle with a crossed hammer and mallet; the number 1845 above it recalls the founding of the company. Next comes the inscription melter assayer, with which Heimerle und Meule identifies itself as the melter and tester of the metal and vouches for its fine gold content. At the bottom, the manufacturer's name HEIMERLE+MEULE is stamped.
Certificates of the manufacturer
Heimerle und Meule is one of Germany's oldest refineries and is on the LBMA Good Delivery List for gold. This list kept by the London industry association records refineries whose bars meet the strict requirements of international wholesale trading. In addition, the manufacturer cites certificates from the Responsible Jewellery Council, an organisation that sets standards for responsible conduct in the jewellery and precious metals industry.
How a growing money supply erodes purchasing power
Central banks can expand the amount of paper money, whereas gold cannot be produced at will. If the money supply grows faster than the supply of goods and services, the same stock of goods is spread over more money, and each individual unit buys less. Savings held in paper money thus quietly lose value. Gold does not follow this development, because its supply is limited and remains scarce.
A value for the next generation
Fine gold does not corrode and does not change over the years. A bar that you put aside today can therefore one day pass unchanged to your children or grandchildren. For private investors in Germany, there is the added benefit that gains from a sale after a holding period of one year are tax-free. As investment gold, the bar is also free of VAT.
