Gold Vincent van Gogh "The Starry Night" – Fine Gold in Masterpiece Format
A world-famous painting, recreated in pure gold: The "The Starry Night" edition brings Vincent van Gogh's most famous work to a delicate gold minted bar made of 999/1,000 fine gold. Yet as artistic as the design may be – at its core, you are acquiring physical investment gold, whose value is carried by the fine gold content and the development of the gold price.
- Design: Van Gogh's world-famous swirling night sky with a glowing moon, shining stars, and the dark cypress reaching toward the sky like a black flame – rendered as a sculpted gold relief with expressive brushstrokes.
- Material / Fineness: Minted from high-purity gold with a fineness of 999/1,000. The fine weight is 1/1,000 oz (approximately 0.031 g) – compact, readily tradable investment gold.
- Manufacturer: Produced by the traditional Swiss mint Valcambi, one of the world's most renowned names in precious metal products.
- Issuing country & face value: Official legal tender of the Republic of Chad with a face value of 3,000 CFA francs, year of issue 2024.
- Limitation & condition: Strictly limited to 50,000 pieces worldwide, Brilliant Uncirculated and protected on a high-quality designed blister card.
This edition joins the sought-after gold coins that combine artistic design with precious metal substance. The van Gogh design is the personal touch – the fine gold is the actual substance and the reason the purchase is worthwhile.
The Design in Detail
Anyone holding the card in their hands immediately recognizes the interplay of two worlds. The large-format blister card shows "The Starry Night" in its typical, intense blue, yellow, and white tones: the dramatic firmament in spiraling motion, the small village silhouette with its distinctive church tower, and the sweeping, wave-like lines that give the entire work its unmistakable dynamism. Embedded in the center sits the actual minted bar – and there the same design appears in pure gold, reduced to light, shadow, and fine relief. At the bottom edge is the inscription "Vincent van Gogh". The obverse bears the national coat of arms of Chad with its two heraldic animals as well as the inscriptions "REPUBLIQUE DU TCHAD", "3000 FRANCS CFA", and "999/1000 FINE GOLD".
Why Small Gold Has a Big Impact
Physical gold is humanity's oldest currency and has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years. It possesses intrinsic value, has never had a price of zero, and is recognized worldwide as a medium of exchange. Especially in small denominations, physical gold investment becomes accessible to everyone: you can get started with a manageable investment, and many small amounts of gold add up over the years to a considerable fortune. This gold minted bar – comparable to a classic gold bar, yet refined with a face value and collector's design – can be sold worldwide and quickly converted back into cash.
- Value preservation: Gold protects against loss of purchasing power and retains both its shine and its value across generations.
- Inflation hedge: While fiat money can be expanded at will by central banks, the supply of gold is naturally limited.
- Crisis protection: In times of political and economic uncertainty, gold has always served as reliable protection.
- Tax aspect: Investment gold is exempt from VAT; profits from the sale are generally tax-free if the holding period is at least one year.
A Gold Investment with a Personal Touch
For a birthday, wedding, or christening, you can give real investment gold with this edition – not just a keepsake, but a real asset that tracks the gold price. The artistic design makes the moment of giving special, while the fine gold content ensures lasting substance.
Gold is the oldest currency in the world – and with this van Gogh edition, you hold a piece of it in masterpiece form: fine gold that preserves its value, wrapped in one of the most beautiful designs in art history.
Secure this edition, limited to 50,000 pieces, from the house of Valcambi – Brilliant Uncirculated, made of 999/1,000 fine gold, and a solid building block for your physical gold investment.
