    Who would even want such a large, useless chunk of silver? I refuse to even buy 100 oz bars! Its 10's and 5's all the way baby!

    Although it's not mine, this is a good pic. The fingers you see belong to "strong hands". image

    How much do those weigh? I can imagine "strong hands" are needed to move one of those.

    I always love a movie were some bad guy is stealing a duffel bag of gold bars and it looks like it weighs about as much as a sack of groceries or he fills up a car trunk and the thing looks normal!!

    I've noticed that too. Sort of like when they shot guns on TV shows and in movies and there is no recoil. Very funny.image

    Believe me when I say that a 100 oz bar makes a more than adequate door stop.

    No pics, but a recollection:
    I helped a bullion dealer load his van once after a show. I remember being VERY suprised at how heavy the 1000oz bars were, but I was STUNNED at how heavy a 10oz gold bar is in relation to it's size. "so round, so firm, so fully packed"
