Rare Johnson Matthey bars

Ciccio

I found an auction on eBay for a 2oz JM bar. BIN is $150
Knowing the seller (not personally though), I am sure the price is fair.

So, I was just wondering what is the rarest size for JM.

I bought 4 half ounces @ $12 each (with silver around $18).
Was that a fair price? Was that a good deal?
Or, as always, did I get robbed?

The last 2 oz bar on eBay sold for $115. There is a best offer feature on the one listed now. You did Very well on the 1/2 oz bars @ that price. I've sold them from $25-$45 each. I did manage to sell a 3 oz for $155 & 4 oz in 5g JM bars for $255 yesterday.

I guess I'm not the only idiot that over pays for silver

1/2oz silver JM bars sell for between 3-6x melt.....so figure $27-$50 per bar (higher end if sealed).

The single rarest JM bar I ever saw is a 100 grain JMM bar. I sold it to AgBlox for a very pretty penny, and only because I dissolved my fractional collection.

P.S.- At the time, I did not realize that "JMM" was actually Johnson Matthey & Mallory!

That one is also on eBay. We shall see how it does

Thank you guys, for once in my life I made a good deal! Though, I like them very much and won't sell them...
I wanted to buy just 2 but they had a sheet of 4 and I took them all.

Gecko, are you the one on the videos? Will check them better tomorrow.
