Show me some vintage small pours.
Picked up this Golden Analytical 5.0 TROY OZ. (Type 2) at the Honolulu show for $300 this past weekend.

This picture is from a few years ago. These are bars that I found when visiting two local coin shops. It was a good day.

Not sure how vintage some are...

This is small, but not vintage yet.

That is correct actually that is the bar that started my current collection! I bought that bar back in 2015, paid the price of 10 American silver Eagles basically so a small premium, I’ve had it ever since… All Engelhard even posted my serial number on their registry…
Definitely one of my favorite bars!

Asheland, if we had a time machine we could go back to 2015 and pick up some old poured bars that now bring multiples of spot. Despite diligent ebay bidding 10 years ago i believe I have only one of the 10.ooo types like the one you posted. Happy hunting for similar old poured bars.

Vintage style.
Those bars were likely produced within the last dozen years or so.

@Wingsrule - your bars’ Canadian cousin
The upper left I believe is a Nevada Coin Mart bar like the upper left, but they forgot the logo. Bought both of these in the early '90s. They were in a bucket heading over to Sunshine Minting in N. Idaho to be melted into rounds. The etched bar I know nothing about - I have seen one other example, so I think they were commercially produced.

One small bar you don't see often.

Wingsrule & taxmad, love those flow lines.

Wingsrule, your 3 oz Engelhards are particularly rare and are seldom seen. Your two examples and my similar sole example were likely produced the same day.

Yes, but I don’t have the glamour shot on AE!

Hopefully, I don’t put any duplicate posts, of all the things I collect, the poured bars are among my favorites!

I love that sunburst look that they have!

yea,, and there's the radial lines and the crossing pour lines that look like webbing
when i saw this i was thinking how collectible ingots with attractive pour lines might be worth more one day
