Vintage
Afternoon everyone …
I know that stacking silver to most is all about weight. But if you know what to look for and have a local coin shop or visit flea markets or garage sales. You’d be shocked what you can find if you know what to look for.
There are vintage ingots and bars out there that carry huge value over the spot price of silver. In the mid seventies and all through the eighties there were hundreds of silver refiners making silver bars, ingots, and rounds.
Silver was very cheap back then so in order to maximize sales these refiners would turn their silver into something they could sell for over spot price.
Listing all of these very small refiners is impossible. But a good source for some of the finer ones is a website named allengelhard. I am putting a link to it just below this.
Some of these bars are beat up and toned or even tarnished beyond appealing. Yet they are worth big money over spot price.
Here are a few samples of vintage bars from mints/refiners that no longer exist from my collection thsr are super popular to collect.
These are all bars that command well over silver spot price. Be on the lookout. If it looks old and you can get it for a good price I suggest you buy it.
