Lady Fortuna always come with a hefty premium. Looking at the PAMP Website there is a huge array of different PAMP bar products including the bezel sold separately! I'd wonder if anyone has ever manage to collect one of each of the entire PAMP line.

You are in, my Sis @kerrislravenhill!

And I love you my Sis, 💞

N.I.B.R. = National Indian Bullion Refinery (who made your pendant) is located in Mumbai, India. They were established in 1970, and here is a quote about them from their website:
We recycle and recover precious metals as (Silver, Gold, Platinum, Palladium, Rhodium, Iridium, Ruthenium) base metals (Copper) from different industry’s waste streams. We put them back in the cycle for a better life.

P.A.M.P. = Produits Artistiques Métaux Précieux is another supplier of precious metals. They're located in Switzerland, and were established in 1977. Perhaps they originated the "Lady Fortuna" design on bullion, according to what appears on their website:

Foremost is PAMP's world-famous 'Lady Fortuna,' the first artistic design ever to decorate precious metals bars.

I'm not sure if they mean Lady Fortuna was the first design to grace their bars, or if they were, indeed, the first company to manufacture precious metal "bars" and this was the design they originally chose. They make it sound like the latter is true, though. I can't find any conclusive evidence as to who created the first-ever precious metal bars for retail consumer purchase.

Regardless of who first put Lady Fortuna on an ingot, though, more information about the Roman Goddess Fortuna can be read here:

You are in, @thekittygirl. BTW, please check your DM.

I tried but keep seeing only PAMP lady Fortuna items.

You are in, @goldrooster!

don't take this at 100% but I'm pretty sure they came out in the late 80's (for some reason that sticks out in my head) and I haven't seen one since the 90's you have an awesome bar/charm there and I <3 it

You are in, @corndog42!

Lady fortuna is based on the ancient Greek goddess of fortune called Tyche 👊

You are IN, @owenwat!

Interesting fact about the fractional silver ingot - it's made from 10g of silver!! But you might have already known that. 😂😂😂

You are in @welshtacker!

@silversaver888 the bar features Fortuna, who is the equivalent to the Greek goddess Tyche. She was the goddess of fortune and the personification of luck in Roman religion. Fortuna is often depicted a cornucopia on bars and pendants as the one you have. Thanks for sharing!!

You are in, @dwingsworld!

I hate when they use coins and bars as jewelry.....but weight is weight.🌹

Hahaha... you know that from the beginning of time, men adorn their lady loves with precious metals in the form of jewelry... hehehe! Your info is correct, bestie... this is a bar made as jewelry to be worn. You are in, @silverd510!
