Since I seem to be on a bit of a bullion kick, thought I'd share my first gram of palladium that I've acquired! I know these 1-gram bars are really small, but they're also kind of awesome. Crazy to see any sort of detail on these despite being smaller than a finger nail. I also was able to scoop up a couple grams of platinum as well as a gram card of gold! These are a bit on the expensive side given the current spot prices of gold, platinum and palladium, so being able to buy these tiny fractional bars makes stacking much more affordable. I typically don't share how much I pay for my acquisitions, but I think here it makes sense: $45/gram for the platinum bars, $60 for the gold card, and $85 for the palladium bar. Not too bad, and keep in mind those prices were given to me by a long time friend/dealer when spot prices were even lower than where they are now...

Those tiny bullion pieces seem to be very very popular nowadays. I wonder if there is much fraud in the market. I would think that selling such small bullion pieces would be very lucrative for a counterfeiter. I guess the moral is, buy from a known and established seller only.

Those prices you quoted are not all that bad if you compare them to the historical charts, like those available on Kitco. So you did good. Yet I feel that we share the same view, they are more appealing for the design than the monetary value.

Fun blog! I don't think the prices we're to out of line... It's the novelty of these items that make them way cool! ; )
