Gold Vincent van Gogh Collage Coin

Vincent van Gogh in pure fine gold – the gold collage coin from Gabon

• Design: A colour-printed collage unites no fewer than three van Gogh icons on a single surface – on the left the striking self-portrait with red beard and blue jacket, behind it the swirling blue tones and glowing moon of the "Starry Night", and on the right the radiant "Sunflowers". In the centre sits a golden field bearing the signature "Vincent", below which appears the cursive lettering "Vincent van Gogh".
• Material & fineness: Struck from the purest fine gold with a fineness of 999/1,000 (24 carat) – the highest purity level in the investment sector. The fine weight is 1/1,000 ounce, roughly 0.031 grams.
• Manufacturer: Produced by the traditional Swiss mint Valcambi, one of the most renowned names worldwide in the precious metals industry – issued in the name of the République Gabonaise.
• Face value & year of issue: Official legal tender with a face value of 1,000 CFA francs, minted in 2025.
• Mintage: Strictly limited worldwide to a maximum of 50,000 pieces.
• Format: Rectangular gold coin with rounded corners, measuring approximately 15.4 x 11 mm, Brilliant Uncirculated and securely packaged in a blister card.

With the Gold Vincent van Gogh Collage Coin you hold a piece of art history in pure gold in your hands. Unlike classic round coins, this edition comes in a rectangular format – its silhouette resembles a small gold bar, while the face value of 1,000 CFA francs clearly identifies it as an official coin. Within the smallest of spaces, the collage condenses three of the most famous works by the Dutch Post-Impressionist into a single, colour-intensive overall image. The result is a charming fusion of painting and fine gold.

Substance rather than mere design: genuine investment gold

As artistic as the design may be – the real reason to buy lies in the metal. The value of this coin is based first and foremost on the fine gold it contains and moves in line with the gold price. The design is the personal touch, the 999/1,000 fine gold is the substance. With a manageable outlay, you thus join humanity's oldest form of value preservation: gold has been a proven store of value for over 6,000 years, possesses intrinsic worth, and throughout its entire history has never had a value of zero.

Small units such as this one are particularly well suited for building up physical precious metal step by step. Small amounts of gold add up over the years to form considerable wealth – without requiring a large capital outlay all at once. Physical gold is tradable worldwide, highly liquid, and can be resold at any time. This makes this coin a tangible building block for your inflation hedge and a solid form of crisis protection.

• Value preservation: Gold protects against loss of purchasing power and has always served as a hedge against inflation and currency risks.
• Building wealth in small steps: ideal for getting started in physical gold investment and for continuously building up a precious metals holding.
• Tradable at any time: recognised worldwide, with high liquidity and easy convertibility into cash.
• Tax advantage: profits from the sale of physical gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year.

Why the collage coin convinces

Compared to the equally popular van Gogh editions in silver, this coin scores points with the value density of gold: within the smallest of formats lies genuine fine gold of the highest purity. The designs – self-portrait, "Starry Night" and "Sunflowers" – rank among the most famous works in art history and lend this edition of the "Art & Culture" series its distinctive character. The mintage, limited to 50,000 pieces, further underlines its value.

Despite its artistic design, what you are acquiring here is full-fledged investment gold: minted fine gold from Valcambi, whose value is determined by the gold price.

Whether as an entry point into your own gold investment or as a gift of genuine investment gold for a special occasion – this edition combines the timeless fascination of van Gogh with the enduring security of the yellow metal.
