My collecting journey has brought me down so many different avenues. The more you learn. You find yourself building interest in other similar areas.
My passion for vintage ingots has brought me to vintage promotional items. Refiners, mines, and metalurgists would create promotional items that reference their company and brand. For example, Engelhard produced pewter statues of miners paning gold. Also, they would put a silver bar in Lucite. Which can be easily used as a paperweight. They would fine a spot to stamp their logo on these promotional items.
I want to share a neat piece I picked up at my local antique mall. It is a replica gold bar. Produced to show the physical size. As well as display the value during that time.
I included a 5oz silver ingot in the photo to use as a size reference.
Stack those metals🤘
