Original Geiger Edelmetalle 1 Oz. 999 Fine Silver Bar – In Sealed Square Assay, Premium German Silver! Serialized with Security Features. Spot is on holder, not bar. This is a premium bullion product minted by Geiger Edelmetalle (also associated with Leipziger Edelmetallverarbeitung GmbH, or LEV), one of Germany’s most respected precious metals refiners and mints. It stands out for its distinctive square shape, exceptional German craftsmanship, advanced anti-counterfeiting security features, and elegant design-making it highly sought after by investors and collectors alike. Geiger Edelmetalle has deep roots in German silver trading, with origins tracing back to the establishment of silver commerce in Leipzig as early as 1218. The modern company is family-owned, with its headquarters at the historic Schloss Güldengossa (Güldengossa Castle), a late-Baroque manor house built in 1720 near Leipzig. This castle is not just symbolic-it’s prominently featured on the bar itself and serves as the company’s registered office and a nod to centuries of precious metals expertise. The bars are produced to the highest standards, often carrying LBMA recognition for quality and purity. The reverse is intentionally more technical and security-focused, featuring a repeating diagonal pattern of the mint’s hallmark “LEV” (for Leipziger Edelmetallverarbeitung). These LEV logos appear in a textured, rhombus/diamond-like grid across the surface, creating a subtle, uniform background that acts as both decoration and an anti-counterfeiting measure. Overlaid on this is a distinctive blue coating in a central area. This blue section includes: An individual serial number (unique to each bar for traceability). A centered hallmark or additional mint mark. The blue coating has a special UV-reactive property: it glows under blacklight (UV lighting), providing a quick and effective way to verify authenticity without specialized equipment. This is one of the bar’s standout modern security innovation. Thank you for Viewing our Listing and Visiting our Store! Please Check out our other Listings!
