Assay marks and hallmarks

Our refiners imprint their gold bars with distinct assay marks, hallmarks and logos, which serve as a form of branding and authentication. These marks provide information about the producer, weight, purity and often a unique serial number for each bar.

Tamper-evident packaging

Our reputable refiners seal their gold bars in tamper-evident packaging, making it evident if the package has been opened or tampered with. This helps ensure the integrity of the gold bars during transit and storage.

Tamper-resistant packaging

Our gold bars are also sealed in tamper-resistant, secure packaging that deters unauthorized access and tampering.

Advanced security features

Some mints, like the Royal Canadian Mint, incorporate advanced security features into their gold bars. For example, Bullion DNA technology allows investors to authenticate their bars using a unique code, providing an additional layer of security when you buy gold bars in Burlington from Delta Harbour Assets.

Serial number tracking

Each gold bar produced by these refiners is assigned a unique serial number. This tracking system allows for traceability and ensures that counterfeit or stolen bars can be identified.

Authentication services

Our reputable refiners offer authentication services that allow customers to verify the authenticity of their gold bars. This involves using the serial number and other unique identifiers to confirm the bar's origin.

Independent assayers

Some mints use independent assayers or laboratories to verify the quality and purity of their gold bars. This independent verification adds an extra layer of trust to the product when you buy gold bars in Burlington from Delta Harbour Assets.

Stringent quality control

Our chosen refiners maintain strict quality control throughout the manufacturing process, from sourcing raw materials to the final production of gold bars. This helps ensure consistent quality and purity.
