    Recent little pickup.
    Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe these were made by Engelhard?

    That may be it. Shows you how much I know about vintage silver. No wonder I couldn’t find it on Allengelhard. I should stick to coins :D

    Nah, vintage silver has its own degree of cool that the average coins lack

    Thanks to @taxmad I have added these two into the silver stack.

    Similar bars that I believe are a bit older vintage, but not as shiny as the ones @asheland had with the magic mushrooms in the corner.

    Very cool 👍

    Eventually, I will try to track down that variety

    This was a cool pick up this week:

    Impulse purchase yesterday.
    This high relief Canada Peace Dollar is really pretty. Only 3000 minted apparently.

    I was holding off on grabbing a roll of these.. always wanted one.. But figured I should act if I really want them so I pulled the trigger B)

  • jmski52jmski52 Posts: 23,306 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Very cool silver bars with reeded edges yet which is a nice feature. What does the reverse look like? B)

    Nice looking reverse. I like they come in a rectangular tube of 20 coins. B)

    I don’t own any, but I’ve seen those in person, they’re very very well-made!

    Scottsdale makes some terrific stuff.

    Yah, like I said I've been looking at them for a while. I paid up, but if silver keeps going, and I have no reason to think it won't, it would hurt more later.

    I bought more.

    Been telling you guys for years that modern graded bullion will have its day. In a world of counterfeiting with no enforcement, the authenticity of high grade coins that have been melted in large numbers results in a significant premium.

    I only paid 42 each and I'm going to make money on every one of them after grading fees. I kinda don't care that they're not 18/ea.

    I've been making real good money in a niche gold and silver jewelry market, so I got more of that, too. People just pay whatever you ask and don't care and I've never experienced anything like this in my life. I'm just making up numbers half the time.

    Really appreciate all the advice you guys have given me over the years. Even if some of it wasn't entirely correct it has led me here.

  • Downtown1974Downtown1974 Posts: 7,029 ✭✭✭✭✭

    @Azurescens are you making money after grading fees on the ones that don’t come back a 70?
    That’s great if you are!

    My latest, waffle back with ‘reverse’ convex stamping impression of the top line found on the observe.
