## 4 things to check when buying osmium

### Crystalline only

Buy only **crystalline** osmium. Only this form is stable, safe to handle and recognised as an asset — not the raw powder.

### OIC certificate

Every genuine piece has an **Osmium Identification Code (OIC)** stored in the World Database — your proof of authenticity and ownership.

### Verified dealer

Buy through the network of Osmium Institutes or **certified partners**. Avoid offers without verifiable certification.

### Small entry possible

Small denominations such as **discs or stars** make entry easy — you don’t have to buy a whole gram at once.

## Which osmium forms you can buy

From a low-cost entry to a larger holding — osmium comes in several standardised forms.

### Stars & Diamonds

Smallest denomination — from fractions of a gram. The cheapest entry.

### Disc

Round form, popular and easy to trade — a classic for entry.

### Bar

Standardised, easy to store and trade — the classic holding form.

### Cube

Shows the enormous density impressively. More on the [osmium cube](https://www.osmium-group.com/en/osmium-cube/).
