Some of the kilo silver bars we bought a few weeks ago:

 

If we had more time, we could have arranged them into some more imaginative stacks and towers.

Maybe next time!

Oh wow. are they all pre ordered.

What price per oz do you guys get them for Lawrence?

There'll be some members on here cringing at the arrangement; some serious OCD around here😁

Worth a try Roy 😀

The description on the Flickr page says:

We should have added 100 from our existing stock, and made it a half tonne, which is what we were trying to buy, so we just took what was due to become available.

So, no, they are not all pre-ordered (In normal times, we buy for stock, not to order).

I am not going to tell you what we pay for them, but we do have them for sale on our website, in a few places:

https://www.chards.co.uk/1kg-vat-free-silver-new-bar-metalor/10164 

Although this says out of stock, they can be made available if bought in quantity, but we would need to ship them there.

https://www.chards.co.uk/silver-1-kilo-ten-bar-bundle-metalor/11780 (bundles of 10)

Because they are KILO bars, we have priced them in metric rather than troy ounces, but this search page has approximate per ounce prices:

@LawrenceChard great photo! Love the Metalor bars.

Feel free to upload photos directly to the editor box on TSF if you would like, because if the link to the external site is broken, or that site is discontinued for any reason, the photo would be lost and not viewable on TSF.  You can drag and drop photos to the "drag files here to attach" under the text bot, to hit the "choose files" button.

We are happy to receive creative suggestions for stack and tower designs. 🙂

Recieved a very pricey bit of silver! This medal was supplied with Patek Philippe watches on thier 150th anniversery in 1989 - I have not been able to find out if all watches had one or just some models.... Its 35 grams of sterling.. But the silver value is irrelevant in its value as an item in this case... Its two of my obsessions in one package so i had to have it! Plus i know i will never get a Patek watch so this will have to do

Was it struck by Huguenin Bros by any chance?

Well respected medallists, and they were very helpful some years ago when I enquired about an old medal(lion) of theirs.

I must make a "business" trip to go and visit them when lockdown is over.

Postman also popped these through my door today....not sure why these aren't more popular, they are stunning out of the capsule and a relatively low mintage. Picked these up for a steal too 😁

I think it was the price. When I was first looking it was around €30

I very kind gift from a fantastic forum member

Really appreciated and a lovely coin

Thanks Chris, 

I expect the external sites I link to should be around for quite a while, with stable pages, but worth noting.

I hope too much of that wasn't my fault. I do digress quite easily!

You asked:

 

Your wish is my command, oh master!

Custom made stacks made to order. Please specify whether you prefer 100, 200, 300, or 400 bar stacks.

Looks like Chards are very competetive to Bairds when you look at http://goldprice.eu5.net/#

 

Thanks for posting that, it made me laugh.

But, seriously, 3 out of 6 is just not good enough!
