David 1974 Valued Member United States 99 Posts	Posted 04/23/2015 12:34 pm Would you be on board if a company put out a series of "playing card" size silver bars that would replicate the playing card. You could collect all 52 cards, plus the jokers as a "bonus card" with say maybe a 24 carat gold insert on the jokers. Of course the complete set would be housed in a "card box" for looks. Why hasn't this been done yet? Report this Post to the Staff

If not I would be afraid it would snap at that surface area even if it had the thickness of a dime or even a quarter. Report this Post to the Staff
David 1974 Valued Member United States 99 Posts	Posted 04/23/2015 1:02 pm Yeah, it would be a bit thicker than a playing card....possibly around 3 ounces at the size of a playing card should give it a decent thickness Report this Post to the Staff
Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 04/23/2015 3:15 pm I think it's possibly an untapped product. Who would have thought that these silver bullets would have been such a hit before they came out. Now every site and coin store I find carries them. I play a lot of poker so I think a card set would be cool and something I'd probably collect. I'd think the challenge would be making it durable and affordable for people to collect the set. A slice of silver the size of a card would be incredibly fragile, but releasing all 52 cards (plus jokers) as like....once ounce bars or something would be fairly expensive to put together.

David 1974 Valued Member United States 99 Posts	Posted 04/23/2015 3:19 pm you can make them 1 ounce bars the size of a playing card, just place them inside of a snap clear plastic holder of some sort to keep them from bending or cracking. It can be done in a playing card size...this is 4 ounces as a replica $100 bill http://www.apmex.com/product/80442/...ll-w-box-coa Edited by David 1974 04/23/2015 3:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 04/23/2015 11:37 pm Yeah but that replica bill is also like 20 times thicker than a normal bill at 1.4 mm. I wouldn't mind a deck of silver cards that stack six inches tall but I don't want a stack of silver cards that are two feet tall. Report this Post to the Staff
