Questions about a silver bar.

PerryHallPerryHall Posts: 46,228 ✭✭✭✭✭
A friend needed to raise some cash so he sold me a 100 oz Englhard silver bar at melt. It's an older poured bar with "999+FINE SILVER 100 TR. OZ.", "ENGELHARD", and the serial number stamped into the surface. Are these older bars are worth more, less, or about the same as the newer bars? Any idea how old these older poured bars are?

  • Pretty common, but will sell for a good premium to spot, especially on ebay right now.
