I never saw a silver Engelhard half kilo before!

Pretty cool but over $35 an Ounce

    That is a cool looking bar. I have never seen one like this either.

    At that kind of premium, it's not being sold as "bullion".

    I don't collected holed, repaired, tooled, harshly cleaned coins, either. So why would I do likewise with collectible silver bars?

    Without ever having seen another one, that just doesn't look right.

    Pass.

    I've seen 4-5 of these before and they always sell around $500 no matter the spot price $10-$25. I used to own a Johnson Matthey bar exactly like this one and I've seen others of them as well. They are legit and quite nice IMO. If it were a bit cheaper I'd pick it up.
  • AgBlox is correct, of course image

    These bars are tough to find and I classify them as boardering on rare.

    These were made for the Canadian market .... but were not very popular.

    They do get pricey ........

    Looks OK to me, though I have never seen one before.
