Hi all, Saw one of these for sale recently, in a box with small certificate. Can't remember the date..
for a little above melt.


Any concerns?
It said .999 silver.. but can it be trusted.. I don't know these very well..

Thanks

I bought one years ago. I'd say the odds of it being real silver are markedly better if it's boxed with a COA from a known mint and purchased from a seller sans red flags. If you decide to buy, just make sure you run a magnet over it. Something like that has an absolutely perfect surface for a diamagnetism silver test. IIRC, you'll need a neodymium magnet, though.

Are you asking about the 4 Oz silver bar that looks like the $100 bill?

Yep.. Thats it. Washington Mint $100.. I didn't look too closely at it but it was still in its box, with certificate.. Don't remember the year and it looks like that it the important bit. Prices online vary accoridng to age...
Min 2 questions are: Risk of fake?
and good price?
I could go back there tomorrow....

It is a 4 oz. Silver bar in Proof. The one's with box and coa are real. Far as price E-bay has them for under $120.

I had one before back in 2006 and when it came time to sell there was no premium offered.
