    G'day Folks,

    On offer this time round some rarer Mid-Sized Silver Bars, ones that you don't see every day :)

    Auction finish at 17:00 AWST (18:30 NT/19:00 QLD/19:30 SA/20:00 NSW/VIC) - This Sunday!! (28th February) :D

    ALL Lots finishing at the same time!! *With the (what used to be o_O) usual "5 minutes after Final bid" actual finish for each particular Lot (Forum Timestamp used) *

    Any valid bid for a particular Lot extends the Finish for ALL Lots!!
    ie. The Auction will be Officially over once ALL bids have finished!!

    *No edited Bids, please :) the Forum does indicate "edited" when posts are edited (look above the "Quote Reply" right hand side) so if you make a bid and it turns out the same or lower than a previous bid please place a new post for the bid to make it higher rather than "edit" the post with the unsuccessful bid - although editing to clarify a Lot # is fine :oops: *

    Due to no "seconds" showing on Forum time-clock :rolleyes: any duplicate bids with the same timestamp will be "first in line" gets the spot ;)

    Starting at ~SPOT price!!! :eek:

    Postage at Winner's Choice/Cost/Risk (at this stage...)

    BONUS – FREE 1oz Copper Round(s) for winner(s) of Multiple Lots :cool:

    And without further ado, on to the Auction...

    Lot 1 - A rare 1980's 5oz Bar from APM (a pre-cursor to APMEX :oops:)...this one, only managed to find a couple on offer :eek: (but on this one, I think he's either dreaming...or he knows something eBay <----- o_O)

    Lot 2 - A 251gm early "GEOMIN" stamped .999F bar - Serial G225 :D

    Lot 3 - An Engelhard Australia 5oz - Serial B03506 (Not sure of the significance, pretty cool bar though o_O)

    Lot 4 - A nice example of Aussie 5oz goodness in the form of an XAG Intrinsic Tender Loaf bar, cryogenically sealed (well, in plastic :p) - Serial MY3005 :D

    Thanks for looking and good luck to all :cool:
