Yea, Silverhawk. Like Traevin mentioned they do command a better than average premium. IMHO, there pretty good stacking material.
Rest in Peace

that poured bar is manufactured by a company called Prospector's Gold and Gems out of Fort Collins, Colorado.

They list 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 oz, but don't show a price for 4. By the others, $160 or a bit less.

That is dead on its sale value as usual for the 4 oz. version BF, maybe as low as 150 if you are lucky....

And also technically BF after scoping across that great info you provided there, they don't appear to be the old late 70's or early 80's version. They just have a smart concept to melt down scrap an turn it into these and gold as well, as they are popular stacker as mentioned by T an Rasta.....

Clearly states they started 13 years back in 1999, as I had assumed it was a company long since gone from the late 70's or early 80's.....

I picked these last year at huge show we have here in the STL in July. The actual company that makes them had a table with a wide selection of coins they and these.

If you ever want to trade for these you know what auction of yours I am eye balling. LOL

I'm so jealous. There are only 2 shows in my town every year. And every dealer in the show asks for at least 10% of premium on both bullion and junk silver.

Nice pictures! I like to be able to hold the actual silver in my hands. :)

You would love the JM bars. The ten are in a sheet and all serial numbers are sequentially numbered. I heard they come in sheets of 20 but my little sheet looks cool. Probably not the best when it comes to storage but def worth it to have a few.

Sounds GREAT, TBK. Those look like something that would really fit well in my collection. They should store OK. Got a 1/2 empty shelf in my safe that should hold those quite nicely.

  • 2 oz = $80 from the issuer
  • They have gold lumps you couldn't stack with superglue
  • Their gold fractions are designed by David Carr

Coin,

IDK about the 2 having a premium. I paid spot for them but that was from the actual company directly and was probably some sort of weekend promo.

I wish we had more shows in the STL. But truth is the ones we do have are awesome.

Well udate on the prospector gold an gem bar. I bought it on ebay for 149.99 BIN seems a few weeks back an sold it today with a much better up close picture today for 167, lol. Not that I care about that minimal profit, just the point that I can buy a bar with a bad distant picture an in turn take a good up close pic an sell it to ebay guys who push it past a price that the EXACT same bar sells for less on a buy it now elsewhere. Unbelieavable, or is it....

I haven't done much if any selling on ebay. How are there fees? Is there a higher percentage charged when you list an item with a BIN? And does the funds that are paid must be paid through PayPal? Just wondering.

Rasta minus 14% for ebay an paypal from that 15 made, as actually it sold for 165, as I listed it as free shipping, an had forgotten to click the box for it. However, when I invoiced him I request 165, not 166.95 as it should have been....

Heck, I lost a little money lol. I don't care though experiment of sorts. I will pool all sells together an try again. You win some an lose some, just try an win more then you lose an you may stay above water....

In the end I just care if I UP my overall silver amount each time that I put up, as I just had 45 oz. listed, an on the batch before that I was at about 38 oz.. So you can see how it slowly starts to articulate up, minus me making any more bone head buys, which happens more often then not like I spent TOO much on some of those toners, lol...

Turns out people bid more to the number past the MS, before they think about color, lol. An capturing the right picture to portray an accurate image of the coin is not easy.....

I can get those bars at a good price in bulk, so may stock up on fifty plus this next time around, knowing full well I could sell them now an maybe make a little or set for a while an add more until silver spikes, in which case they would pass 200 an oz.. If silver got say back into the upper 30's....
