    Wow! I'm new to PM. That is awesome. I thought it seemed high until I saw on the bay a 7 oz sold for just a little less. Amazing. GL

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    The Type 1 oval stamp plus .75 in the Fine places the bar in the mid 1930's.

    The smaller the bar the higher the premium, the bigger usually net $100 an oz unless crazy bidder or shill bidders....

    Not sure why you need to denigrate current silver bars by calling them dreck. If you want to buy bullion, there's nothing wrong with silver bars that can be bought at a small premium over spot and is easier to sell and it's value is more easily establish.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    I've done several transactions with TWQG who I consider to be totally trustworthy and reliable and that bar is certainly very cool but I have no idea what it's actually worth so I can't really be sure if his asking price is realistic. Also, I've read that SF Mint silver bars have been counterfeited so I have no idea if it's authentic or not. I always seem get into trouble when I buy a cool collectable outside of my area of expertise.

    Well, I for one agree with his "dreck" comment. Plain bullion bars w/o any significant value over spot, are only clumps of metal.

    We'll have to disagree that 999+ silver bars are dreck (Yiddish word that means crap, trash, junk, garbage, rubbish, filth, etc).

    older clumps of metal are still clumps of metal, just older.

    Y?, cause it's easier to catch an uninformed buyer who will overpay ... Instead of gambling they will show up and move the auction bid way up...

    I'm glad you took the bait. Once it's revealed to you who bought the bar, you're going to look even more foolish.image
