1 oz Sunshine Mint Breakaway Gold Bar .9999 Fine (in Assay)

The Sunshine Mint Breakaway Gold Bar: One Ounce, Four Quarter-Ounce Pieces

The Sunshine Mint breakaway gold bar is a 1 troy ounce bar of .9999 fine gold, made in the United States by Sunshine Minting and sealed in an assay card. What sets it apart is the format. The ounce is divided into four connected 1/4 oz segments that can be snapped apart, so the owner can keep one solid ounce or split it into smaller pieces for gifting or trading.

Four Segments, Four American Symbols

One side of the bar carries the Sunshine Minting logo with a sun behind it, along with the weight, the purity and an American flag. The other side turns the four segments into a single themed design. Each quarter-ounce section shows its own image set against stars and sweeping stripes, featuring a bald eagle, an American bison, a bear and a torch. Every segment also bears an America 250 emblem, a nod to the 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026. The assay card keeps the full bar sealed until the owner decides to divide it.
