Other than to state the obviousness it is a older poured silver bar, I can not shed any info to help. I have seen them listed on ebay before. Edited by mkfarm

The only thing I found that might be a lead for you. No website, just a mailing address and phone. Give them a ring and see it's from their foundry.

Most important is at least stamped .999 fine silver, as you should never buy a bar minus that info. Now then, that of course does not mean it is real, but it is a start. I to have seen those on ebay, and I would say most likely you are fine with that and it is 100% genuine old pour bar.... Great info from Silvereye there, just curious if the company is still in existence, as I figure it would be if he could find that number an address.... |

I would also think a RAISED stamp like this one has, is tougher for a faker then simple engraving, as I can buy a solid engraving kit right up the road at Home depot or Wal mart. But I could be 180 degrees off on that and I am sure others here could add something to that theory....

 , braden801! Poured bars were popular before 1980. |

Thanks for all the help. Been too busy to research the company, but it is on the to do list. I did find out that my grandpa did go to high school in that town, so I am pretty sure the address you gave is probably where he got it.
