Silver Ingot Lesson of the Day!

in steemsilvergold •  5 years ago 

I received a new informational book today pertaining to 1oz silver bar's. Believe it or not. Finding a type of reference book like this is difficult. Mainly due to the incredible amount of time and effort it takes to publish one!

The past couple years I started to aquire as much literature on precious metals possible. Especially literature that focuses on vintage silver. It took me a long time to get to the point where I realize how important having this information on hand.

That being said, I am going to post brief informational articles on Steemit regularly. The articles will consist of photos of pages from the books that I own. I will refer to these posts as "The SilverIngot Lesson of the Day." I figured one of the most important things I can do is provide quality information that will benefit anyone who shares this common interest. It doesn't make sense keeping this kind of information private.

Johnson Matthey is such a quality Silver bar my friend, all information is good to have thanks for sharing!!🤗

I have also been buying up books about numismatics.
I'm mainly focused on Pre-33 gold but some of the books I'm looking for are out of print and the folks who have them want a nice chunk of change for them.
The ones that are in print still cost $30+ but its totally worth it. Lots of these books have full-color photos and great information on mintages and survival rates of some of the coins.
Thanks for posting about these sweet JM bars, looking forward to the next lesson...

The slim literature available pertaining to numismatics is always expensive. Knowledge is power. Especially in this market! Worth every penny. . ✌

The logo of Ranchers Exploration is pretty cool looking too.
Escalante Mine, do you think this mine still exists? Perhaps shut down until market conditions improve?

I am not sure if the mine still exists. I am have to look into that. The hallmark is great though.
