if they were 100% gold that would be expensive so what percent of gold is really in there?

As an industry leader and keen advocate of precious metals ownership, GoldMoney sets new standards for governance and customer protection.
We built our proprietary system to absolutely ensure there always exists a one-to-one relationship between every single goldgram and silver ounce recorded in the GoldMoney system and the quantity of grams of pure gold and ounces of silver in the insured vaults.

Learn from history...
Gold has been known and highly valued since prehistoric times.
It may have been the first metal used by humans and was valued for ornamentation and rituals.
Gold is genuine Wealth,
Gold is real money.
“Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value – ZERO”
Voltaire 1729
GoldMoney customers can redeem and take physical delivery of their gold in
handy units of 100 gram or one kilo (1,000 gram) gold bars. Through our
partnership with Baird & Co. Limited in London, England, a major refiner in the
UK, conversion of goldgrams into physical gold bars for insured mailing or
collection may be completed at any time.
To convert your goldgrams into one or more GoldMoney
bars, log into your Holding and select "Redeem Gold >
GoldMoney Bars". Then choose the quantity of bars you
would like to receive and specify whether you want them
shipped to you by insured mail or if you will collect
the bars at Baird & Co's premises in London. Your order
will then be processed within one business day, and you
can track the status of your order directly within your
Holding.

The gold medals weigh about 570g, and they include 6g of gold plating
