    Nice shiny DT1974.



    Had a chance to pick up a 2nd one of these. Pretty cool feeling to own 20% of something ever made. (Only 10 made).

    I've picked up a little bit here and there.

    I know this is the PM's forum but it does have a touch of gold on it. image

    POM...how do you know only ten were made?? Not challenging you, just curious.

    No worries, glad to explain and maybe educate a little.

    The Archie Kidd 5th edition (the bible for silver art bar collecting), page 145 states the total mintage of this bar is 10.

    There is also a 6th edition guidebook. There is also silverartcollector.com that I am part of that can help with gathering information on silver art bars.



    You can check it out here and browse by Mint. The site doesn't have every bar/round ever made, but we have over 4,300 bars/rounds on the site now.

    Bought $76 FV 90%. Third coin in the first handful of halves I pulled to check was a '38D Walker in VF. That's metal porn.

    Congrats on a rare pick-up, Rich!



    GRANDAM, I like those Kangaroos as well. I love the ornate detail in them.
