Welcome to the site!!

Can't say why it would be rare, other than perhaps Engelhard did not mint many of that size. Interesting that you mention 5 gram bar, as there is another thread made recently on this subject, here you go below....

check ebay, a lot of fractional bars cost a good premium. I believe the 5 gram engelhard goes for a fair premium

engelhards are sort of like the rolls royce of silver bars. Not that their silver is better, just more recognizable. Maybe a better example would be Tropicana oranage juice compared to the no name brand stuff.

Plus buying small fractionals always come with a premium. I highly doubt engelhard minted alot of these, so it can be considered a collectible as well.
