Benchmark 1/8 Grain .999 Fine Bar $130 This Benchmark Strategic Metals 1/8 grain gold bar is composed of .999 fine 24-karat gold, offering a tangible way to invest in precious metals at a fractional level. The diminutive bullion bar is securely housed in a professional-grade assay card that serves as a Certificate of Authenticity, featuring the Statue of Liberty and the motto In God We Trust. This specific piece is issued by a proud member of the Jewelers Vigilance Committee (JVC), ensuring adherence to strict ethical and legal standards in the jewelry and metal trade. Measuring only a fraction of a gram, these bars are popular for their portability and as unique collectibles or gifts. Prospective buyers should note that 1/8 grain is a very small weight—approximately 0.008 grams—meaning the listed price of $130 carries a significant premium over the current spot price of gold, reflecting the manufacturing and authentication costs of such specialized micro-bullion. Condition: The item appears to be in brilliant uncirculated condition, securely housed within its original tamper-evident assay card which protects the metal from wear and environmental damage. The Mint is Benchmark Strategic Metals, a private mint known for producing fractional bullion products. The Metal Content is 1/8 grain of .999 fine gold (24 karat). The Historical Context of this item reflects the modern market demand for highly fractional gold bars, designed to make physical gold ownership accessible at very low entry points for small-scale collectors and investors. The Strike Type is a standard bullion finish with basic stamped inscriptions denoting weight and purity. There is no formal third-party Grading (such as NGC or PCGS), but the assay card serves as a certificate of authenticity from the manufacturer.
