"Once upon a time …" – few opening lines are as familiar in Germany as this one. With the Brothers Grimm Gold Fairy Tale Set 2027, these words become something very tangible: five small gold coins made of fine gold, united in one case. The fairy tale design gives the set its personal touch. The substance, however – the actual reason for the purchase – is the minted gold.

Five Stories Everyone Knows

Starting in 1806, Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm collected traditional tales in Kassel. Shortly before Christmas in 1812, the first volume of "Children's and Household Tales" was published, followed by the second volume in 1815. Today, the collection is considered, alongside the Luther Bible, the most famous book in the German language, translated into more than 160 languages. In 2005, UNESCO added the Kassel hand copies to the "Memory of the World" world documentary heritage.

Five of the most famous fairy tales adorn the obverse designs of this edition:

• Cinderella sits on the palace steps, slipping on the glass shoe.
• The Frog King: The king's daughter holds her golden ball, while the crowned frog waits at the edge of the well.
• Hansel and Gretel stand hand in hand in front of the gingerbread house.
• Little Red Riding Hood with her basket meets the wolf – eye to eye.
• Snow White holds the apple, while the evil queen lurks in the mirror.

Vine ornaments frame each scene, beneath which is the inscription "1/200 OZ FINE GOLD 9999". On the value side, a shared portrait of the Brothers Grimm unites all five coins, complemented by "25 DOLLARS", the year of issue 2027, and "REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA". The lid of the case features a colorful fairy tale illustration.

Fine Gold as Substance: Genuine Investment Gold

Despite the fairy tale design, what you are acquiring here is fully-fledged investment gold – minted fine gold whose value tracks the gold price. Gold is the world's oldest currency. For more than 6,000 years, it has served as a store of value, and its value has never been zero, because its worth lies in the metal itself. Paper money can be multiplied at will, while the supply of gold remains limited. It is no coincidence, then, that central banks are among the largest gold holders in the world.

Another advantage: in Germany, profits from the sale of physical gold are generally tax-free after a holding period of at least one year. In addition, gold is traded worldwide and can be sold again at any time.

Small Denomination, Big Impact

Anyone who buys gold coins in ounce size or a gold bar ties up a larger sum all at once. Small denominations like these, on the other hand, are an ideal entry point into physical gold investment. Honestly speaking: the smaller the piece, the higher the minting cost per gram. In return, you receive five coins in Proof quality, each with a diameter of 14 mm, which you can pass on or sell individually. This flexibility is something a single large bar cannot offer.

Small amounts of gold add up over the years into a considerable fortune – coin by coin.

Give the Gift of a Genuine Gold Investment

Give the gift of genuine investment gold for a christening, birthday, or Christmas. Not just a souvenir, but an asset whose worth lies in the fine gold and which can be passed down through generations. Gold, the big brother of silver, is durable, does not change its properties, and still shines like new even after decades.

Anyone specifically looking for a classic collector's coin will find a large selection there. This set, by contrast, stands for fine gold in small, easily tradable units.
