Do these silver bars have a collector value?

Or is it worth melt only

Those are better than melt.
Some of the members here may even want them.

I've never seen the Mark Refining bar before so I can't speak to it. The 10oz poured Engelhard will usually realize a premium over the newer style struck Engelhard bars but it's not a huge premium. I've never seen that "clashing" (for lack of a better term) that shows on the back of the Engelhard bar...kind of neat.

Normally the 10 oz E doesn't have much of a premium. They sell for $160/170 but I've never seen one with those marks on the reverse. May spark someones interest into bidding higher.

I don't recall seeing the other bar sell before, I believe it would go around $20/oz + I would certainly list it on eBay @ .99 NR and see what happens.

Most silver bars sell for a premium over melt... that's especially true for Engelhards.
