Question: Sterling (the car company) silver bar value?

I was going through some of my oddball silver (pandas, maple leafs etc) and found this bar. I've had this 85 gram sterling silver bar from when my dad test drove a Sterling car probably in the late 80s. I guess the plastic case got punctured since it has gotten tarnished.
Has anyone seen one of these before and do you think it has any value over the price of silver?

Here's another picture to give a size comparison of this tiny bar.

    I would place your Sterling Bar in the same category as the FM Sterling bars...lucky to get melt if you try to sell them in the U.S.

    Thanks. I was sort of thinking it would be in the same category as those Franklin Mint art bars and I know sterling is not desirable. Plus it isn't as identifiable with no makers markings on it. No matter what 85 grams of silver is a nice gift for test driving a car. I always thought it was a neat collectible from a defunct car company
