I couldn't decide what to give as a gift so I finally narrowed it down to a 10oz. bar of silver. He liked that more than the digital movie camera someone else gave to him.

    If I had your money I could have.

    It was a "Liberty" bar by the way.

    excellent gift. Got to keep that idea in mind. My dad gave me a .300 Winchester Magnum rifle when I finished college.

    As I was walking out to the car I turned and told him he needed to buy at least 1 SAE each month, more if he could afford it.

    He not only graduated but graduated with an excellent job in the field he studied for, (Construction Management) he signed a 1 year contract already.

    Great gift idea. I'm curious---what brand bar did you gave him?

    Liberty, it had a huge statue of liberty on one side and the specs of it being 10 oz.'s and .999 pure silver on the other. It may not be worth a whole lot but I wanted something he look at 50 years from now and tell his grandchildren "My Dad gave this to me".

    If he studied economics and current events it's understandable.

    Excellent choice. Good looking bar with a great design. I have a few in my silver stash and I can understand why he cherishes it.

    Wow. And a job in his field, to boot!

    Congratulations to him and to your family. And a great gift!
