Gold bar

A Gold bar is a bar of refined gold. It can be created through the Smithing skill at level 40 by using a gold ore on a furnace, granting 22.5 Smithing experience. If a player uses the Goldsmith's gauntlets from the quest Family Crest, they then receive 56.2 experience for each bar they make. Gold bars can be smelted in a furnace through the Crafting skill with different moulds to create various pieces of gold Jewellery. Also, gold bars are smithed into golden bowls during the Legends Quest, and a Gold helmet plus a golden cannonball are smithed during the Between a Rock... quest. A gold bar is a reward for the Goblin Diplomacy Quest.

Value
The gold bar is worth significantly less than the gold ore from which it is smelted. A gold ore is worth approximately.

Trivia

 * When smithing a piece of Onyx jewellery, the gold mysteriously turns a black colour. When viewing any piece of Onyx jewellery, you will notice that it has black gold instead of normal yellow gold.


 * Using the Goldsmith's gauntlets makes smithing gold bars give more experience than smithing Runite bars. (56.2 experience versus 50 experience)


 * Gold leaves that are used in Construction for higher leveled furniture can not be created through grinding down a Gold bar. They can only be purchased through the Stonemason or Grand Exchange.
 * Though in real life gold bars are extremely valuable, in Gielinor, they are much, much more reduced in value.
 * Though the currency in Runescape is gold coins, the coins themselves cannot made from gold bars. For obvious reasons, there is no coin mould either.
 * when dropping the gold bar instead of the normal drop sound a metalic clunk can be heard.
