Hi,
If you are an investor in precious metals, authenticity is key. Phony bullion coins, however, have become quite sophisticated over the years, preying on collectors and investors alike. To help combat this, the Royal Canadian Mint came up with Bullion DNA™ technology — a sophisticated system of verification engineered specifically to help protect your holdings in gold and silver.
As an Authorized Royal Canadian Mint Bullion DNA Dealer, AU Bullion prides itself on offering investors the very best sense of security and confidence when purchasing Royal Canadian Mint bullion coins or bars.
What Is Bullion DNA Technology?
Bullion DNA (Digital Non-Destructive Activation) is a high-tech anti-counterfeiting system from the Royal Canadian Mint. Bullion coins such as the Gold Maple Leaf or Silver Maple Leaf are marked with micro-engraved security features not easily imitable.
Used in conjunction with the Bullion DNA Reader of the Mint — a tamper-evident verification device available only to authorized dealers — a coin’s authenticity can be confirmed in seconds.
How It Works
Bullion DNA technology incorporates several key security features:
Micro-Engraved Maple Leaf – A small laser-engraved maple leaf appears on the back of each coin. Inside the leaf is a numeral visible only through a jeweler’s loupe, denoting the year of coin production.
Encoded Digital Signature – Each micro-engraving is encoded digitally in the secured database of the Mint.
DNA Reader Verification – Certified dealers such as AU Bullion are able to quickly read the coin using the Bullion DNA Reader to check against the records of the Mint.
A three-level system in which every coin is guaranteed to be genuine, thus one of the most secure bullion products in the world.
Why Bullion DNA Matters for Investors
Counterfeit coins not only threaten the integrity of the precious metals market, they can also put individual investors at risk of financial loss. Choosing bullion products with Bullion DNA technology means you get to enjoy benefits including:
Peace of Mind – You can be certain your coin was authenticated against the secure database of the Royal Canadian Mint.
Guaranteed Genuine – The authenticity and weight of each coin are assured by the Government of Canada.
Strong Resale Value – Authentic coins are recognised globally, so you can liquidate easily when you’re ready to sell. Security against Counterfeits – Modern technology makes duplication nearly impracticable.
