I added just a few ounces this week - largely thanks to ebay bucks.
Nothing unusual with the Engelhard 5 oz or Montana Eagle 1 oz. The 16 gram bar is a mystery to me. Does anyone know when and by who these petite bars were produced?

I went for the 1/4 oz AGE.
Fun fun!
It is a 1-oz "Lovable Pandas" silver art bar (ISIC-1V). It was minted in 1973 by International Silver Ingot Co. Mintage number for this particular art bar is 500 according to the 4th edition of Archie Kidd's silver art bar guidebook. I bought this last Tuesday on ebay for $33.90 (spot silver was $36.15 at that time). I received it in the mail today and I was able to take a couple of pictures of it.
Generally speaking, silver art bars sell for very high premiums on ebay. The ebay BIN price for this bar was about $60 but the reason that I was able to pay only $33.90 for this particular silver art bar is because I able use my ebay bucks certificate that I earned in the last quarter to bring this price down.
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.

I'm guessing the 16 gram is a crude attempt to make a half ounce, but have never seen it before, Cute.
