    So I stumbled accross a bar a few days ago (don't own it though) it was a 10 ounce bar Marked Phoneix dollar in partnership with NWT Mint. Couldn't find too much about it, looks like the "phoneix dollar" was a failed attempt to monotize silver. Was anybody on here involved with this or know how long it lasted and why it didn't work out? Seems Primarly US based but just got me curious

    "Pheonix Dollar" - it was an attempt at a digital silver currency. I believe the scheme collapsed, I don't know if people lost money as a result.

    Post a picture - it could become a collectible in the history of hard currency attempts one day.
