In addition to collect American Silver eagles, I would like to buy a 1oz bar bullion.

Anyone else interested in collecting bullion bars or am I alone (and, weird)?

Who makes the best looking bar?

Also, who is the most trust worthy?

Thank you.

Stephen

Englehard JM and credit Swiss are all recognized.
Sunshine mint, northwest mint and tulvig are also fairly well known
There thousands of designs for bars and rounds out there. So have fun in your searches...

Awesome collection! How many years to collect?

I like the JOHNSON MATTHEY, NORTHWEST TERRITORIAL MINT, ENGELHARD, and PAN AMERICAN SILVER 1 troy ounce silver bar designs...so far. Simple, classic designs.

Awesome you should ask. I just posted a complete photo catalog of USVI Ingot Company bullion rounds and bars from 1980 through 1982.

All the silver processed there was originally large ingots (800 oz through 1400 oz) stamped Johnson Matthery or Engelhard. The large bars were cut into chunks, melted in a floor furnace, and poured either into silver shot or molded billets. Shot was weighed and melted in graphite trays, and billets were extruded in a huge industrial machine.

A search of "USVI silver" on ebay will usually reveal several current auctions

Several conversations about silver buillion are posted in the Exonumia forum.
