This ingot mold turns the gold into a bar, round or other shape. They often have a smooth top with a rougher base and side surfaces. Poured bars are most often rectangular, but on occasion different manufacturers will make them round, square or rod shaped. Some of these poured bars will contain a serial number. Examples of poured bars are the 1 oz Johnson Matthey Gold Bar and the 1 oz Engelhard Gold Bar. Pressed Bars Pressed bars, also referred to as minted, stamped, or struck bars, come from blanks. Blanks are hand-cut into specific sizes and dimensions from a flat piece of gold. Pressed bars are made from a rolled-out cast bar. These bars are smooth on all sides and are usually rectangular, but can also be round, square or oval shaped. Most of the time these pressed bars include a reverse side motif or design. Examples of pressed bars are the PAMP Suisse 1 oz Gold Bar and the 1 oz Sunshine Mint Gold Bar.
