    Do you have a pic? I've never seen a 1 oz poured J-M silver bar.

    They were probably struck bars. When a major refiner like J-m produces 1 oz bars, they are usually mass produced so it's doubtful they are rare.

    Neat looking bar. Judging by the relatively crude nature of this bar, I would guess that it was produced when J-M was just starting operations. Any ideas what they sell for? Looks like something I would like to add to my collection. image

    Wow!!! Apparently they are quite scarce or possibly two collectors just had to have it.

  • Did you see the Engelhard poured 11+ oz bar that sold yesterday for around $650 ??

    ( and no ....... I did not buy it.)

    These bars show that there is a real collector base for hard to find bars.

    As neat as I think these are ....... I to have a real tough time paying these

    kind of prices for collector bars.

    I did not see that one SB. This one was on APMEX priced @ $300, sold in less than 5 hours. I did see the Engelhard bar you refer too.

    I bid on this JM 3 gram silver bar a few days ago, I bid $75 and lost, it sold for $110. Was listed on the UK ebay site. Lot of neat items appearing lately such as that 1/2 oz Engelhard bar someone posted not long ago.

    I feel the same way. There are plenty of interesting bars to collect that can be bought for close to melt value. Also, how much will the local B&M coin shops pay for those esoteric bars costing multiples of melt if you should ever needed to raise some quick cash?

    I have been picking up most of my odd pour bars .35-.95 cents over spot. B&M shops view them as bullion, and rightly so. Some of those bars take months to sell (A&W, Omega, etc) and the chances that a collector will wander in isn't worth the extra $10 they may get.

    Hi, I'm new here. Anyways, I'm not seeing this listing. Can someone post a link? I'm only seeing(recent) a 4 ounce poured that went for $170ish.

    I have a couple old poured 5 ouncers that were handed down to me in a collection and one of them is a JMC. I'm just wondering if $10-$12 per ounce over melt is normal for the old poured stuff?
