History & provenance

Swiss refinery heritage.

Introduced1951
Archive recordModern

This 250 g record represents the 250 g Silver Bar format. Argor began in Chiasso, Switzerland, in 1951 and later developed into Argor-Heraeus. Its investment bars follow the classic refinery hierarchy: maker, weight, fineness, and serial identity take precedence over decorative imagery.

Cast versions preserve the softly irregular surface of cooled metal, while minted versions offer sharper fields and edges. Across both, the restrained hallmark is meant to communicate refinery provenance and standardized precious-metal content.
