Why Coins Matter in the Global Gold Protocol

Gold and silver coins play a unique role in the precious metals ecosystem:

  • They are widely trusted by individuals and institutions

  • They have global recognition and deep secondary markets

  • They are often preferred for sovereignty, portability, and familiarity

By supporting coins alongside bars, Global Gold:

  • Broadens the addressable asset base

  • Enables more granular ownership

  • Bridges institutional and individual use cases

  • Preserves liquidity without sacrificing standards

Coins are treated as allocated assets, and are not used as backing for fungible token issuance unless explicitly approved by Council standards.
