Frequently Asked Questions

What is spot price? The spot-price is the price for which someone can buy certificates or futures on the commodity exchange. So the spot price is not the price for physical gold or silver. It is however mathematically impossible, based on the paper market volume traded, for these so called paper metal products to be fully backed by physical precious metals.

What is fabricated product?  Globally accepted refiners produce a variety of precious metals products from its raw form. Once the precious metal has been refined to 99.9%+ purity it is then cast into a wide variety of bar and coin sizes. The larger the size of the bar the lower the cost to fabricate; this results in a lower premium. Smaller products are generally more costly to produce and hence have a larger overall premium. Coins are also produced in small increments and have added artistry and anti-counterfeiting measures; as a result coin products tend to have the largest premiums.
