    I have a really cool 20 oz that looks like a biite was taken into it when it was poured its dead on in weight was told that 20 oz are rare for JM and the pour marks are also rare. Have a 10 oz. Bread loaf style and a 5 oz and 1 oz as well need to get an engelhard though.
    53 is pretty expensive though I usually have had to pay around 1 dollar an ounce over rounds. Though JM bars are probably far more common in Canada though Australia.

    Cool man, if you have a coin shop or bullion exchange in your area they're good place to look. E Bay can be good though. You just have to be careful who you buy off and how much you pay.
    Keep stacking :)
