Deak-Perera was a key player in the development of retail precious metals and foreign exchange services during the mid-1900s. The company was founded by Nicholas Deak, a former intelligence officer known for his work in the OSS. Deak used his experience to build a wide-reaching network of exchange offices that gave everyday people better access to foreign currencies and bullion—at a time when such access was often limited.

Each 1 oz Engelhard Deak-Perera Palladium Bar offered here includes an assay card and was produced by Engelhard specifically for the Deak-Perera brand. Deak & Co. Ltd, created in the 1940s, was the original firm behind Deak’s growing financial business. This company laid the groundwork for Deak’s influence in both precious metals and international currency markets.

The obverse side of these palladium bars shows the Deak-Perera name along with essential details like weight, purity, and metal type. The design reflects the origins of Deak’s company, which later became known as Deak-Perera through its expansion and partnerships. On the reverse side, the Engelhard name appears repeatedly as part of the background pattern.
