I found a few ingots yesterday that I have not seen before. I am familiar with the old poured ingots... I own one with the Heraldic eagle.
These appear to be modern. Have you guys seen these around? Maybe that little mint in Virginia City is producing these? Madison mint?

    Nice bars... while I do not collect them, I would likely pick one up if I saw the at a show or shop. Cheers, RickO

    Melty, there is a new mining venture on the old Comstock claim in Nevada called COMSTOCK mining. Looks like they are pulling out the stops seeking investors and additional $$. Given the nature of the bars, the similarity with the name of the claim and the font used for both the bars and the outfit, the apparent recent manufacture of the bars, and press releases showing that this new outfit is producing silver and gold, it's at least a possibility that these are promotional pieces for current or potential investors.

    A little more digging might provide a definitive answer. Even a phone call might work.

    WE’RE POURING AGAIN!!!
    HISTORIC COMSTOCK POURS GOLD AND SILVER DORÈ

    Our team couldn’t be more pleased to announce that we began pouring gold and silver Dorè again on the Comstock this past week! Last week, our team fired up the furnaces and poured our first metal Friday night and continued pouring through the weekend. We sold almost all of the Dorè in September, with a gold price of $1,777.25 per ounce and a silver price of $34.61 per ounce. We also plan on reserving a portion of the metal to produce commemoratives celebrating the event.
