Poll Question
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKaA6ht_Ik8I just posted this link in another thread, but wanted to add a poll and realized that I could not add a poll to an existing thread. Anyway, I wanted to see what everyone's personal favorite design is for a Silver Bar.

I like the stylistic lady's image on the PAMP Suisse Silver 1.0 Oz bar

I just like Engelhard for some reason. It's like Corn Flakes isn't right without that rooster on the box. I am just accustomed to relating a bar of silver with Engelhard.

The RCM Bars are nice, but I always find the design so boring. I think that's why I like the Scottsdale bars so much, they are very similar to the RCM bars but have a nicer design. (And they are stackable) Edited by Canadian-Banknotes

JM Bars are nice but I like poured Engelhard bars with the dings and battle scars on it. Gives it character.

The JM and Engelhard bars are nice but often have a higher premium on them than other bars. Getting more silver for the same or less money appeals to me.  My pick was "other" in that I like the 5-oz. SilverTowne bars the best. They are very well made, attractive, and the price is usually quite good as well. Edited by Ed_B

I prefer Engelhard. I do like the Academy bars stacking features

Yeah I like when the bars can be stacked as well. Do any other bars have this, besides Scottsdale and Academy?

The SilverTowne bars are wrapped in a clear plastic holder but are not ridged for stacking. In spite of this, I have had no trouble at all in stacking them 10 bars high.

You're welcome, CB. There is a lot of info shared on this web site and I am happy to contribute when I can. I've sure learned a LOT from others hereabouts.
