SGG: Tokenized gold backed by physical sovereign coins

Swissgrams Gold (SGG) is backed one-to-one by physical sovereign gold coins held in private Swiss vaults. Each token corresponds to one coin with one troy ounce of physical gold content. The metal is allocated, held off Swissgrams’ balance sheet, and each SGG conveys clear co-ownership rights under Swiss law.

This structure is deliberate. Sovereign coins are standardized, widely recognized, and practical to physically redeem. Linking each token to a single coin keeps the connection between the digital token and the physical metal simple and direct. Holders know exactly what stands behind their tokens and what they can redeem.

Eligible Coins

The Swissgrams gold backing consists of the following sovereign gold coins, each containing one troy ounce of gold:

  • American Gold Eagle
  • Canadian Gold Maple Leaf
  • Vienna Philharmonic
  • Britannia
  • Australian Kangaroo

The specific coin delivered on redemption may vary according to available inventory. Swissgrams may update the list from time to time, provided any newly added coin also contains one troy ounce of gold.

How It Works

Eligible coins are deposited into specialized private vaulting facilities in Switzerland, the corresponding SGG tokens are minted on a strict one-to-one basis and delivered to the holder’s wallet. Each token represents a pro-rata co-ownership interest in the physical gold coins held in custody. When the token is transferred on the blockchain, the co-ownership interest moves with it, while the physical coins remain in the vault.

Our redemption option allows holders to convert their digital position back into physical gold. The holder returns the required tokens to Swissgrams, the corresponding coins are released from custody and delivered to the holder’s specified location, while the shipment is insured. Redemption starts from a single ounce, as this process is designed to be practical rather than theoretical and to be usable by ordinary savers rather than limited to large institutional quantities.
