    Looks like it's been left on the dashboard of the car in summer... Interesting piece of history

    Just weighed the bar for the first time and noticed it weighs 1.116ozs. I paid for 1oz, $6 or so from memory, and the rest was a bonus !

    As far a parting with the bar .... feel free to make an offer but it would have to be good for me to consider it. :D

    The bar says fine silver so 99.9% pure.

    I assume being a poured bar there may be a small variation in weight ... or just a bad day at the mint. :)

    Agreed. I've not seen any more like it. Even Google Images doesn't have a picture of these bars .... most probably because they pre-dated the world wide web. :lol:
