    Enjoy the photos.

    It took me a while to remember how to load photos, but thanks to House for the tips.

    A few bits of trial and error getting from a scanned image into publisher document then say as jpeg then load online..............

    Scroll down for all 4 bars

    Just a thought.

    480 USD? That's a bit on the high side.

    I have a standing order for them at $450
    I'm sure the Americans would pay a bit more ;)

    Hmm. Recently from the Classifieds section, someone sold off a bar at 380 AUD. Prior to that, 5 bars were sold off at 2000 AUD (400 AUD each).

    Though there is an eBay listing for 450 USD.

    I could see them selling on the bay for up to $500, maybe more for the top one with the bubbles, if you get the right bidders going at them. People who are still buying collectible old silver bars these days generally arent worried about getting silver close to spot.

    These bars are indeed a treat to the eyes :) If you can find a silver bar collector, you can expect to get big bucks for these. Good luck.

    I have a 20 oz Jm bar from the late 70s early 80s it has a chunk out of the corner when they poured it it weighs correct and im told theyre rare. Also have a 80s bread loaf jm bar. Is there a good matket for these items? Ive been thinking of unloading some of m more collectable pieces to procure more ozs.

    Hmm. Depends on the asking price. There's one for sale on eBay and it has been listed there for quite awhile.

    There will always be a buyer, just that most will be price sensitive now.

    Yeah I looked around yesterday on the bay similar ten oz were listed from 330-400. The closest I could find o my 20 oz was an old engelhard for 840. If theyre goin for 30-40/oz theres a good chance Ill auction them or have them up for trade on here. Id personally rather turn 30 oz into 45/50 than have a couple of rarer bars.

    Did you have the 1st and 3rd ones burried in the yard at some stage boneyard :D j/k

    They look nice though. I just picked up my first 20oz perth poured bar. Always got coins or 10oz NTR picture ones before and I have to say there is sonething nice about the hand poured once you hold them and see them in the flesh.
