A-mark 1ozt Brick

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago

Good afternoon. I happened to be in the safe this morning when this piece caught my eye. From a distance I thought it was a fractional bar until I got a closer look. It is a 1ozt A-Mark Brick or some call them Hershey bar. It has a unique shape and size and they are even stackable but we only have the one.

It was minted by U.S.V.I. Ingot Company in 1981. It measures 1 5/16” by 7/8” and its ¼” thick.

The front has the A-Mark logo in the center. In the background A-Mark, 999 Silver and 1 Oz Troy repeat.

The back has the weight prominently displayed near the top. The weight is in grams and Pure Silver Assay. Inside the circle is 193 S (lot number???). The mint name and the year 1981 are near the bottom.

I hope you liked this one as much as I did. Have a great rest of your day.

Me too. I wish I had more but they are too expensive.

I absolutely love those! 💗 I only have 1 because they are too expensive 😞 Thanks for the show Ma!

Funny just said to Silversaver I wish I had more but they are too expensive. You are so correct! Thank you.

Oh man the vintage style coupled with the toning is gorgeous!! I also adore the size! Its chunky but not overwhelming. Thanks for sharing!!

Thank you. One of my favorites I think so far. 😁 Just starting to pay attention.
