Copper is the perfect balance between rarity, beauty, and affordability. Copper rounds, copper bars, and copper coins are extremely popular right now, being a very affordable option for those who want to diversify their physical metals holding or who are new to semi-precious metals stacking. 

Copper was first discovered and used by man over 10,000 years ago. A copper pendant, the oldest metal object ever found (dated from about 8700 BC), was discovered in the Middle East. The element copper (from the Latin Cuprum) was named after Cyprus, the principal mining location of ancient Rome (Cyprium). 

For nearly five millennia, copper was the only metal known to man and was used for several purposes. Throughout history, copper has been used as currency, jewellery, and ornamentation. Still today, in terms of industrial metal consumption, copper, remains one of the most used metals (after iron and aluminum). Copper's industrial, electrical, and mechanical properties make it indispensable to modern living.

This 10 oz (311.035 grams) Geiger Edelmetalle Pure Copper Bullion Casted Bar (.9999) is an affordable addition to your semi-precious metal collection. It is a great long-term investment, as copper demand continues to rise and its supply becomes scarcer. In addition to its intrinsic value, copper has many industrial uses ranging from power generation, to transmission, and manufacturing. As a physical investment, copper shares many similarities with gold and silver bullion, but is also different enough to stand on its own as a valuable asset. Along with providing security, by adding physical metal to your portfolio, and protecting yourself from inflation, this pure copper bullion bar has a beautiful in-hand feel and is a perfect addition to any collection.

The copper bullion bar is minted by Geiger Edelmetalle in Germany., An LBMA approved refiner, Geiger Edelmettalle guarantees the purity (99.99%) and minted weight (10 ounces or 311.035 grams) of this magnificent bar,making it perfect for collecting or investing.

While the price of gold and silver are manipulated (the London Gold Fix) and influenced by factors outside of supply and demand, copper is likely to offer a more stable source of return over time, based on its many industrial uses alone. Due to their unique design and relative rarity in North America, Geiger Edelmetalle copper bars represent a reliable investment option for collectors and investors alike. Because copper bars are significantly less expensive compared to other precious metals, like gold, silver, platinum and palladium, they make for an excellent addition to any physical investment portfolio. 

The element copper has seen a 500% increase in price over the last 20 years, marking a significant divergence from precious metals (silver - 225%; gold - 275%; platinum – 100%). Copper bars and copper rounds are continuing to gain in popularity with investors and collectors alike, not only because of the possibility for massive further price increase, but also the intrinsic value of copper and its potential use in barter and trade Indeed, Japan is believed to have been the first nation to produce currency out of copper, beginning its production at the end of the 7th century. 

Geiger Edelmetalle Copper bullion bars are made from pure copper (.9999) and, designed for long-term physical investment. As shown on the pictures, each bar is stamped with its precise weight, metal content, and Geiger Edelmetalle logo and image of the headquarters building.
