    Actually they appear to be 1 oz bars...If you look on the reverse/obverse? they have them divided into 1/4 oz bars. I guess you could saw or break them into quarters... Each is scored into four pieces and the obverse displays a “1/4” symbol. Link NWT

    A place called Crabtree mint used to make these. There was ones with 3/4 and 1/4, four 1/4s, two 1/2s, etc in bars and rounds. This company is out of business and you see there stuff on ebay a lot. The local B&M store has a bunch of these but I don't really care about them.

    Incorrect. The op was talking about this....Quarter oz silver bars


    Yes it is a heavy premium, so much so that 90% junk looks just that much more attractive. They also have delved into 5 and 10 gram bars as well.

    I'd buy 'em at $5 each but no more.

    $33.48 an ounce?

    I'd rather have .18084 oz rounds. With a face value. And globally known assayer.

    history is simply repeating itself. the setting for PMs to reach the
    bubble top is being set. idiots are actually buying these i bet. building
    their 2009 version of the nuclear bomb shelter.

    i am just amazed the big players in metals took this long to get here.
    these things would have been huge 1 year ago when premiums were
    just stupid.

  • halfhunterhalfhunter Posts: 2,770 ✭✭✭
    Oh yea, being the idiot that I am, I did order some of THESE just as conversation pieces or maybe gifts.
    Some members of a PM forum, BullionStacker, made a group buy on these.

    Still takes NWT forever to ship however.

    I just picked up the smallest bars I've ever encountered, 1 gram 999 silver with a maple leaf on one side.

    image

    The bar on top is a 5 gram PAMP and the one on the bottom is a one ounce Degussa, for comparison.

    and you know i could never find a B&M dealer who would ever pay more
    then spot for them. i also imagine if you put them on ebay as singles
    the fees alone would make it very difficult to make money on them.

    I've bought roughly 15-1 gram bars and have always been able to purchase them at 60 cents an oz. over spot, also I've bought numerous 5 and 10 gram JM bars for 60 cents an oz. over spot.
