There's one up on ebay right now with an interesting write-up on the history.
I had not ever seen this style before but knew right away that they were pretty unique.

The shop I was working for has a new spectra-analysis machine (x-ray) thing. I threw them in there today and it said the silver content was 92.3%.
I would love to know for certain just how old these might be. The ebay auction states something like the 1880-1940 range.

Judging on the this picture that you provided, I will say that you had a very good weekend at that show IMO. I feel that the Coca-Cola Mt Rainier bar is the best find among the group of silver art bars that you have pictured. The "Follow the Yellow Brick Road" is the second best find IMO among the group of silver art bars that you pictured. That "Yellow Brick Road" silver art bar was minted by the International Silver Ingot Company in 1974. The other 2 Coca-Cola bars that are pictured are also good finds. Generally speaking, finding any Coca-Cola bar and paying only .999 generic premiums for them is always a home run in my opinion. The 1974 United States Silver Corporation "Saber Tooth Cat" bar is a decent find IMO. Overall, IMO you did very well with those silver art bars that you found at the show. Congrats on those silver art bar finds.

I concur with your assessment. Personally, I avoid anything less than .999 in silver. Difficult to sell when the time comes.
It was great seeing you and meeting the guys.
You all looked sharp in those matching black shirts BTW.
Besides the silver I picked up at your table I found 1/10 AGEs for $185 at a table I'll just refer to as "Sleepy Grove Coins".

It's fun to play dealer for the weekend... no question it would be a tough but interesting lifestyle travelling the show circuit as a full time dealer
I also picked up a nice 36-D Walker and a pretty toned Peace but that was it for coins...
