Anyone have info on this Rising Sun mint round? I note that is made to resemble the later Engelhard silver rounds.

So many questions. So few answers.

    Modern Day knock off. No premium over bullion in my book. They are also famous for their 100 Mills junk. Don't forget, this is a 1 gram bar which has less than $1 worth of silver in it. (1/31 oz and you need a magnifier to see it.)

    Rule of thumb for buying bullion on ebay: If it comes with a vial of gold flake, you do not want.

    These items are really just gimmicks. $9.99 for a gram of silver is way too much IMO. The Gold vials are also a gimmick. This is not worth it in my opinion.
