NTR metals. Opinions?

Saw a bunch at the local coin show last weekend, Tulving sells them, and I see some on eBay.

Their website would lead you to believe they're a major, major player in the field. But I'd never seen them until very recently.

The bars aren't bad. A little empty feeling. I'd like to see the serial number field actually used if it's going to be there. Otherwise it seems like it's missing something.

The gold guitar pick 1-oz thingies are kind of neat.

What do you think?

    never heard of them until now. The silver bars look neat, not a fan of their gold picks though image

    I'd trust their silver bars.

    The gold pieces look neat but I wouldn't buy more than one or two as a novelty. They look too easy to counterfeit.

    If you are going to collect gold and silver, limit yourself

    to well known, highly regarded PM brands.

  • They are the biggest refiner/buyer in Colorado, as far as I know. I see the 10oz silver bars everywhere but haven't yet seen the gold triangles anywhere but the NTR office.

    NTR is highly respected and recognized. New 10 oz. NTR silver bars @.39 over spot (500 oz. min, and always free insured shipping):

    I have one 100 ounce bar. Looks like they are sought after going by the price I see for these. I’m getting ready to sell 800 ounces of silver.
    I think they’re very cool especially knowing the history of this once upon a time outfit.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Believe they were acquired by Elemetal. They did get busted back in 2017-18ish for money laundering or buying illegally mined Au if memory serves me correct. I never owned any of their product. THKS!

    The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

    Actually, I believe Elemetal was the group buying the smuggled gold after acquiring (North Texas Refineries).

    Now you can sell your metal to them, but I don't believe they're actually selling or making bars anymore either.
