As the 2020 festive season of Diwali approaches, millions of people around the world are preparing to celebrate. With the colourful festival known for its traditional gifts, no Diwali celebration would be complete without a touch of gold.
It’s easy to see how gold is such a central part of the Diwali festival of lights. However, while gold jewellery has been the favoured gift for a long time, gold bullion is leading the way with a modern update on tradition. And as gold demand has soared throughout this year, The Royal Mint often sees an additional spike just before a major holiday like Diwali, with buyers rushing to snap up bars and coins in smaller quantities, ready to gift.
Aside from its symbolic value as a gift, gold bullion has been chosen as an investment by individuals, governments and organisations for hundreds of years. In more recent times, people have considered it a hedge against stock market volatility and geopolitical events.
As we approach the exciting festive season, now is the perfect time to give the traditional gift of gold for Diwali 2020. Bringing together world-renowned British minting excellence and time-honoured celebration, the Britannia gold bar from The Royal Mint is an auspicious Diwali gift your loved one’s will always treasure. Internationally recognised and valued for more than 30 years, Britannia bullion has become synonymous with The Royal Mint’s commitment to combining quality with beautiful design.
Gold bullion as a gift is a thoughtful gesture of lasting and practical value. The Royal Mint’s Britannia minted gold bar is available for the first time in 1g and 5g editions, beautifully presented in colourful, henna-style packaging, ready to gift.
