The 50 gram gold bar is the middle ground in size between 1 oz and 10 oz gold bars. They fill a nice gap for investors who seek a full range of sizes in their barter stash. The 50 gram size is also more popular and widely traded than the larger bars, and offers a bit lower premium. The bars come minted in an assay package or poured (aka cast), the latter offering an "old school" look that many investors find appealing. The premiums on these gold bars are also quite low, making them a more affordable option than many gold coins. This makes perfect sense in light of the manufacturing process. The production cost per unit of weight is cheaper for larger bars of gold than for smaller gold coins. That is why larger products such as the 50 gram gold bar will usually have a lower premium than gold coins of the same weight. 

There are a number of mints, private and government, which produce 50 gram gold bars. Perhaps the most popular are the Perth Mint, Emirates Gold, Baird & Co., PAMP, Argor-Heraeus, the Austrian Mint and Valcambi. The physical appearance of bars will vary depending upon the manufacturer. 50 gram gold bars are a great way to invest in gold. The bars are beautiful, easy to store and even easier to buy and sell.
