History of Argor-Heraeus

Founded in 1951 as Argor SA, Argor-Heraeus initially focused on refining gold and other precious metals. In 1960, an 80% share of the company was acquired by the Union Bank of Switzerland (UBS), which then went on to have full ownership of the company by 1973. In 1986, it merged with Heraeus Group, a German technology group, to become Argor-Heraeus and moved its headquarters to Mendrisio.

In 1999, UBS exited ownership of the company. That same year, Commerzbank International purchased a 35% share in the company with another 35% held by the precious metals company, Heraeus, and the remaining 30% controlled by Argor-Heraeus management. In 2002, the Austrian Mint purchased interest in the company. It is now jointly owned by Heraeus, Commerzbank, the Austrian Mint, and Argor-Heraeus management.

When buying an Argor-Heraeus gold bar, you'll find that the most notable products are minted bars, cast bars, and gold Kinebars. Each of these feature slightly different designs, however there are some similarities.

This includes a stylized AH in the inner ring of a two-ring circle with Argor-Heraeus SA written in the outer ring.

Along the border is the assay card with the words 'Argor-Heraeus' on the top left corner and the slogan 'The golden link' underneath. At the bottom is the serial number matching that on the gold bar. The obverse of the assay card features the weight, fineness, and certified assayer who assessed the product after production. A small Swiss flag is also printed on the obverse.
