I would like to be on the waiting list. 2 bars if possible (That's what I got last year.)

Thank you!

I have no previous bars, I would like to get on the list for 1 please.

I think your idea is not so good for when you are going to sell them in the future ...

Why would you want to put a number on them ?

Just by opening them, you can have them go milkspotting or tarnishing, ( even when you keep them intact it may happen ) so that's a risk you will always have.

 

All these years I never really questioned why some bars have serial numbers, and some don't. But recently I have learned that the ones with serial numbers, those #'s are used for tracking the production of a run etc., but they do act as a unique identifier. Bars without serial numbers are left blank so that the end user can place a serial number on the bar. This allows the bar to be identified in case of theft. Without a unique ID, the police & insurance companies will say, "Sorry about your luck". I live in an area that is as close to the 'wild west' as it gets, and although I have good security someone pointing a gun to my wife's head will get everything I have. And, I know, coins don't have unique ID, and I have a few of them.....We do what we can and leave the rest to fate....

I haven't cut anything open yet.....

Either way I would be cutting into the sealed plastic package that has kept them untarnished for 8 years. So, back to my original question of how I replicate the packaging they came in?

I have some 10 oz bars from Sunshine mint. They come without a serial number, and I would like to put my own serial number on them but of course this would mean cutting open the plastic they came in. I've had these bars since 2013 and they have not tarnished. Should I just cut them open and punch a serial # then reseal the plastic it came in?

I would like to find what material they used so I can bag up other bars to prevent tarnish. Any suggestions are welcome, and thanks!
