bullions
Precious metal bars
Bullions is the plural of bullion, referring to precious metals—typically gold or silver—in bulk form rather than coin or finished goods.
The metal is valued by weight and purity: The vault held bullions worth millions.
Banks and governments hold bullions as reserves.
In cooking, bullions can also pluralize bullion cubes—concentrated broth for soups and sauces.
