Heimerle + Meule · Pforzheim
Gold from the Golden City.
It began with the dust of the workshops.
Jewellery has been made in Pforzheim since the 18th century. Wherever there is filing, sawing and polishing, precious metal falls to the floor as fine dust and ends up in the sweepings.
The entrepreneur Julius Dittler founds a sweepings works, a “Kehretsanstalt”, to recover precious metal from production waste.
1845
This is the year the story of Heimerle + Meule begins. To this day, the date appears in the mark of the house.
Inside the works
From scrap to bar.
The scrap
Jewellery, coins, cutlery, dental gold and industrial residues: from these, the house recovers precious metal today.
The pour
Gold melts at 1,064 degrees Celsius, silver at 962 degrees. The melter pours the molten metal from the crucible into the mould.
The bar
At the end comes the finished bar, bearing its weight and fineness. According to the company, the fine metals used are produced in its own refinery.
A house that carries on.
1945
In ruins
On 23 February an air raid destroys Pforzheim’s town centre. The company’s building is also lost in the war. Afterwards, it makes a fresh start in the premises of a jewellery and watch factory.
1977
The Brötzinger Tal
The company moves out of the town centre to the Brötzinger Tal, a valley that had been filled in after the war, partly with the rubble of the old town. Its headquarters have been there ever since.

On the bar
What the marks say.
- 999.9
- The fineness in parts per thousand: out of 1,000 parts, 999.9 are pure gold.
- 1845
- The caster. Since 1933 he has been the emblem of the house. In the round stamp, he stands above the year 1845.
- melter assayer
- The one who melts the metal and the one who tests it. Next to these words stands the mark of the house.
- HEIMERLE + MEULE
- The company has borne this name since the second half of the 19th century.
From dust came a name.
Made to last.
The idea of the sweepings works lives on, too: recovering and refining precious metal has been the heart of the house since its founding.

50 x 0.1 g Heimerle und Meule gold bars – your reserve for the next crisis
A kilo bar is impressive. But if you want to trade with it, you have to break it up – and that simply isn't possible. This bundle solves the problem in the most elegant way the precious metals market knows. You receive 50 pieces of 0.1 g gold bars from Heimerle + Meule, each individually packaged in its own coin card from Kettner Edelmetalle. Together they add up to 5 grams of fine gold – but distributed across fifty separate units that can be used individually at any time. For crisis protection, this is the decisive difference.
Because crises rarely announce themselves in advance. Whether it's a power outage, bank closure, currency turmoil or an emergency in a distant country: in such moments, it doesn't matter how much gold you own, but whether you can hand over a suitable amount of it. Small denominations in gold and silver are therefore among the most popular products for various emergency situations – at home and on the road. A coin card disappears inconspicuously into a wallet, a passport case or an inside jacket pocket. It can easily be taken on trips without attracting attention.
Heimerle + Meule: Germany's oldest refinery
The manufacturer stands for precision from the gold city of Pforzheim. Heimerle + Meule was founded in 1845 and is considered Germany's oldest refinery; today the corporate group employs around 700 people across seven production sites. Since June 3, 2014, the company has been listed for its gold bars on the Good Delivery List of the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) – a proof of quality that is recognized worldwide and noticeably facilitates resale.
On the front of each bar you'll find the inscription "HEIMERLE + MEULE", the designation "FINE GOLD 999.9", the weight "0.1 g" as well as the "melter assayer" hallmark. In the center is the company's traditional emblem: the stylized smelter figure with the year 1845. The bars are delivered in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, in flawless condition as new goods – exactly as already described for the individual items. Minor, production-related marks are common in the industry for fine gold of this purity and in no way diminish the material value.

Why gold defends your purchasing power
Gold is humanity's oldest currency. Already in ancient Egypt it served as a unit of measure in trade, later kings and emperors wore it as a sign of their power, and for large stretches of the 19th and 20th centuries paper money was directly tied to gold. No paper money system has survived this course – gold has. It has never had a value of zero, because its intrinsic value lies within itself, not in a government's promise.
Fiat money can be printed, gold cannot. Supply is scarce, mining is costly, and precisely this limitation makes the metal the foundation for inflation hedging and lasting preservation of value. It's no coincidence that central banks themselves are the largest gold holders in the world – they evidently distrust their own product.
Gold has been shining for millennia. And it will never lose its shine.
Tax advantages and comparison with other formats
Investment gold is exempt from VAT in Germany, so the purchase is tax-free. Profits from the sale are generally tax-free, provided the minimum holding period of one year is observed. The value of your bundle is based exclusively on the fine gold it contains and develops directly in line with the gold price.
Compared to a single 5-gram bar, you naturally pay a higher premium per gram for tiny bars – minting, coin card and handling occur fifty times over. In return, you get maximum flexibility: you can hand over, gift or exchange a single bar at any time without dissolving your entire position. Anyone who additionally supplements their portfolio with silver in small units covers both price classes and remains able to act in everyday situations.
For investors who want to build up substance and for collectors who appreciate the smallest bar formats, this set is equally interesting. It's also ideal as a gift for children and grandchildren: 50 cards, 50 occasions, 50 times passing on real money. Anyone who wants to buy gold bars to protect wealth across generations will find one of the most practical solutions on the market here – compact, divisible, secure and recognized worldwide.
