I am a year and a bit into collecting silver bars, rounds and coins.


During this time I have done pretty well finding funky pieces for my collection. I have tiny, tiny bars, bullion coins, art bars, unique rounds, hand poured pieces, silver close to spot and a few fancy pieces with high premiums that came individually boxed!

But I have been craving something more...


Something BIGGER


Cue @summertooth!

All the peer pressure!!!! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

You know what? This actually sounds like a Fantastic idea!

SOLD OUT


SOLD OUT TO ME!!!


Today my treasure arrived from Oregonโ€™s Vulture Peak Mines. Itโ€™s hand poured. It is fat and PHAT! ๐Ÿ˜‚ 9.99oz of .999 pure silver.

Here it is in my hand.

9.99oz vs. 1oz Engelhard

Thick vs. Skinny

BIG vs. little

Would it be weird to have a 9.99 ouncer as a pocket piece? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚


I really love this bar. Thanks Summer for giving me a little push to take the (almost) 10oz plunge! โ˜บ๏ธ

That is a sweet bar and cool they didn't make it a full 10ozs. Gives it some good character.

I really love the sextuple 9 action.

Did I really just say sextuple? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

CONGRATULATIONS, @dfinney!!!! Beautiful piece. Vulture Peaks always has very reasonable prices. Their bars are no-nonsense bars. I love them bars! Have a beautiful week, my sweet friend! Take care.

Big bars for everyone! โ˜บ๏ธ

You have a beautiful week too! I hope the warm Cali sun is shining for you.

It has been raining, hehehe! And guess what... a storm is on its way. It will hit us tonight! But in my heart... the sun shines, always! Stay awesome, my dear friend!!! Take care.

On Instagram, a Pourer I know by the name of Lotus Precious metals cast similar bars of that style. Made to order. I plan to acquire a 5 to 7 oz bar from him.

I need to check out the Instagram silver scene more. I have only dabble in it a teeny tiny bit. 5 and 7 sounds cool.

"A Pocket Piece" LMAO

Itโ€™s in my pocket now! I just have to be careful it doesnโ€™t drag my pants off. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Wow, really nice piece. Great pickup.

Thanks @methus! I know you are a bit of a bar guy. If you have the means definitely check out Vulture Peakโ€™s website. They have all kinds of fun sizes. โ˜บ๏ธ

Too funny, I was looking at that exact bar recently! Love it! That's such a cool bar! It's the 'nearly 10' bar... ๐Ÿ˜† Great pickup @dfinney... ๐Ÿ˜‰

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

The nearly 10! That is a great name for it! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ
