I recently purchased several silver bars from an older gentleman. They were primarily the Engelhard bars with serial numbers but there were a couple that were poured and one that I believe to be a refiners bar. I can not find much if anything on the company. It is marked with the name "Denron" on one end and then simply 100.14 Tr. OZ and 99.9 FINE.
I would love to know if anyone out there has any information that they could share.
Also, guessing there is an amount of collectors value to this bar as well. I have searched Worthpoint and see that the few Denron items that have been for sale go for a small fortune.
Thank you in advance for any help! Bryan

The only information I have found is on the internet and it somehow ties its roots to those of Cripple Creek in Colorado.
Cripple Creek, Colorado -
The City of Cripple Creek is the county seat of Teller County, Colorado. Cripple Creek is a former Gold mining camp located 44 miles southwest of Colorado Springs near the base of Pikes Peak. The Cripple Creek Historic District received National Historic Landmark status in 1961.
Nice bar
Thanks, I was glad to pick it up. Would love to know more about it if anyone out there knows any more info about when it may be from and the company who made it.

We have a couple of denron bars, both look similar to yours. I like how they often have gaping holes in the center.
Nice, I like it, congratulations !!!

Wow... that cooling dip in that bar is significant and, though common on older bars, uncommon on moderns. Cheers, RickO
