Mint: Münze Österreich
The Vienna-based Münze Österreich is the only official mint in Austria. It mints all Austrian euro and cent coins. The renowned mint, whose history dates back 800 years, is also a major shareholder in the Swiss refinery Argor-Heraeus SA, which produces investment bars for it.
The product conforms to the Good Delivery standards of the London Bullion Market (LBMA), demonstrating its maximum possible quality and guaranteeing its free exchangeability anywhere in the world.
Each investment bar is stamped with the Münze Österreich's logo, weight, metal purity, quality seal and serial number. Bars weighing from 1 g to 100 g are stamped and sealed in protective foil together with the certificate. This foil with the certificate must not be broken.
The front side of the bar indicates the manufacturer, the net weight in grams, its identification number and a display of the logo of the Münze Österreich mint. Münze Österreich bars weighing 1 gram, 5 grams and 10 grams bear on their reverse side a depiction of the famous Lipizzaner Horse made by laser using a special holographic technique known as Kinebar®. The bars weighing 20 grams to 1000 grams have a clear back side without a label.
Kinebar® is a world unique, which is created by Kinegram® technology (OVD Kinegram Corp.) on gold bars. The Kinegram® - Kinegram image is created by fine lines of varying depth and shape. As the angle of incident light changes, the kinegram image gradually changes, creating a moving image effect. The special high-tech security of Kinegram® embedded in the precious metal bar substrate is referred to as Kinebar®.
