The 5 g minted bar is one of the most traded small bullion products in the world — large enough to feel substantial, small enough to gift at weddings and festivals. It is about one-sixth of a troy ounce.
Premiums drop meaningfully at 5 g compared with gram-size pieces, which is why many savers use 5 g bars as the rung where regular gold buying starts to make financial sense.
