World's Largest Gold Bar

The world's largest gold bar stands at 250 kg (551 lb), measuring 45.5 cm × 22.5 cm × 17 cm (equal to 17403.75 cm³, or 17.9 in x 8.9 in x 6.7 in≈1062.04 in³). It was manufactured by the Mitsubishi Materials Corporation, a subsidiary of Mitsubishi. It went on display at the Toi Gold Mine on July 11, 2005. It was valued in 2005 at 400 million ven (approximately $3,684,000 USD at the time), though at current 2011 gold prices it is worth approximately $15.3 million USD (value calculated is for gold weight alone @ $1,900/troy ounce, not accounting for the premium associated with being the world's largest gold bar).
