1 oz Platinum Bar: frequently asked questions
-
The cheapest 1 oz platinum bar across 4 dealers is CA$2,395.17 at A-Precious Metals, about 2.8% below the platinum spot price of CA$2,465.94. Prices shift with the platinum market, so the comparison table above shows the live ranking.
-
Platinum is mined at a far lower annual volume than gold worldwide. That scarcity in primary supply is one reason platinum commands attention as a store of value, though its price relative to gold is also shaped by industrial demand from the automotive and chemical sectors.
-
Platinum's annual mining output is a fraction of gold's, and it is concentrated in a small number of producing countries. Fewer dealers hold inventory, fewer investors recognise it on sight, and bid-ask spreads can be wider as a result. Buyers should factor liquidity into their decision: selling platinum quickly at a fair price is generally harder than selling gold or silver.
-
A standard 1 troy oz platinum bar weighs 1 oz (31.1 g). Platinum is denser than gold, so a 1 oz bar is physically smaller than its gold equivalent at the same weight. Most 1 oz bars are rectangular with a flat matte or brushed finish, stamped with weight, purity, and the refinery's hallmark.
-
Cast bars are made by pouring molten platinum into a mould, producing a slightly rougher surface and occasionally irregular edges. Minted bars are cut from a rolled platinum sheet and then stamped under high pressure, giving sharper design detail and a smoother finish. Minted bars typically carry a slightly higher premium; cast bars are a lower-cost route to the same metal content.
