pro aurum Branch Dresden: Key Point of Contact in the East

The city of Dresden has a deep connection to coins and precious treasures — and not just since the opening of the pro aurum branch at Postplatz. For centuries, Saxony — and with it, its capital Dresden — has been a stronghold of rare collector coins (numismatics). Saxon kings and princes were already known in their time for their active involvement in coin minting. A visit to the Dresden Coin Cabinet is an absolute must for numismatics enthusiasts.

And the best part: From the pro aurum branch to the Royal Palace — which houses the Coin Cabinet with over 300,000 objects from antiquity to the present day — it’s just a six-minute walk. There you’ll find exhibits such as coins, medals, decorations, banknotes, historical securities, coin and medal dies, and much more. Saxon coins and medals are a particular focus of the collection.

The pro aurum branch in Dresden impresses not only with its tourist-friendly location near the Elbe River and the historic old town. From a regional perspective, the location can also be considered strategically advantageous, as the Elbe metropolis is relatively easy to reach even for precious metal enthusiasts from the Czech Republic and Poland.

The Dresden branch of pro aurum is open on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM in the morning and from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM in the afternoon (except Wednesday afternoons, when it is closed). During these hours, customers can receive personal advice and buy precious metals from pro aurum or sell them to pro aurum. In Dresden, there is usually one special Saturday opening per month. From 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, customers then have the opportunity to purchase available bars or coins and take them home immediately. Lectures and events on the topic of precious metals are held at irregular intervals in Dresden. For current dates, it’s worth checking the website (under the "Events" menu). In this context, special attention should be given to the Dresden Numismatics Days organized by pro aurum, where many collectors have already made valuable finds.

Spontaneous Precious Metal Transactions Possible

A visit to the Dresden branch of pro aurum to purchase precious metal bars

or coins generally does not require a prior appointment. However, if you wish to avoid unnecessary waiting times, you can schedule an appointment either by phone or online. This is especially advisable during peak hours and helps pro aurum with planning. Scheduling an appointment is particularly recommended if you intend to sell a larger quantity of scrap gold to pro aurum. The same applies to the evaluation of an extensive coin collection.

Additional tip: If you already know which bars or coins are at the top of your wish list, you should check their availability online before visiting the Dresden branch. An inventory list shows the current stock at the Dresden location. This ensures that you can take the purchased items with you immediately after the transaction.

For storing gold & co. at pro aurum

Storage Options in Dresden Modern precious metal trading is characterized not only by the buying and selling of bars and coins. Providers like pro aurum also stand out thanks to their expertise and valuable services related to precious metal investments. One of the most important of these is undoubtedly the professional storage and safekeeping of “noble treasures,” since large holdings of precious metals should under no circumstances be stored at home due to the associated risk of loss. In Dresden, for example, we offer a facility with safe deposit boxes in five different sizes, available for an annual fee starting at 230 euros. Each deposit box includes basic insurance coverage of 30,000 euros, which can be increased at any time (for a fee) if needed. But in addition to safe deposit boxes, there are other attractive alternatives for storing and safeguarding physical precious metal assets. For instance, the pro aurum precious metal depot functions similarly to a securities account at a bank or online broker, and is especially notable for its increased flexibility. Our customer advisors are happy to provide detailed information about all services offered under the pro aurum umbrella — such as gold savings plans, precious metal loans, the mixed fund pro aurum ValueFlex, or our Swiss bonded warehouse (where you can save VAT on white metals). The latter is particularly popular among our clients from Dresden and Saxony, thanks to the geographic proximity to Switzerland and convenient access to the Alpine region.

If needed, our customer advisors will of course also provide information about all services offered by pro aurum — such as precious metal loans, gold savings plans, the pro aurum ValueFlex mixed fund, or our duty-free storage facility located in Switzerland.
