My local shop has a Geiger 10 ounce poured silver bar
Does it have any value over melt?

Thanks

    Nope, try to get it under $1 over or lower.

    Perhaps to some collectors... stackers or casual buyers will be looking for melt or very close. Cheers, RickO

    Geiger silver bars are still being produced and usually only bring a slight premium over what a more common generic silver bar brings although they are serial numbered and have some interesting anti-counterfeiting features including some design elements that are struck into the surface of the bar that are only visible under an ultra violet light.

    Interesting, I didn't know they made the 10 oz poured... I wonder if this is a new product?

    The one I saw is a old poured bar

    Thanks for the info

  • Geiger does make a modern poured version of their bar but it’s only available in Germany. It might have some premium because it’s hard to get in the US but nothing crazy.

    A pic of said bar would be nice. I've always been a fan of geiger

    Here is a 10 oz Geiger Bar but it is machined,
    I too would like to see the poured bar.

    Not machined. Struck or pressed by a die.

  • I’m not sure the poured type is available anymore. It used to be on their German website but I didn’t see it when I searched.

    I'd like to find one. That's pretty cool!

    You are right of course,,,,, I just used the wrong term,,,,,, I was saying it was not a poured bar.
