My last order pending was delivered today. Guess I'll have to figure out my next fix. Sell other stuff at the weekend flea market.
NWT Mint in about the timing they stated when ordered. I'm enjoying the price and shipping costs.

    Neat bars. Has anyone here tried to separate them into quarter ounce bars and, if so, how difficult was it? I'm just curious.

    I have done so. Its pretty interesting as it does not break as easy as I thought. In bending the bar firmly with both hands, besides it hurting, the entire bar was warping rather than snapping. So, I wrapped the bar and used to hand tools to snap it as the seams. In half was easy enough with an extra bend. The smaller breaks took a bit more. The edges were not clean, but didn't mess up the line around each segment. I simply ground down the rough edges you see in the pic. Now if I experiment more, I'm sure I can make a quicker cleaner snap, but then again, $30 per experiment.... I see them selling for more than the whole.... Several folks I've shown were curious and so were the silver dealers. Forgot, but I meant to make one a key chain...

    They would be good for charm bracelets or necklaces.... some might venture earrings .... Cheers, RickO

    How far off is the weight on each 1/4 oz. piece? (Seems like some would be a tad over and some under.)

    And if you had to grind off the rough edges, the total of the four would be a little less than an ounce.
