Like the title states, is this Engelhard bar real or fake? I guess since my last purchase was a 1 Kilo bar it seems rather small to me. I have checked websites to try to input the serial number with no luck. Does anyone have any information about this? Is there a site where I can input the Serial Number to verify if the bar is fake or not? To me the bar just seems smaller than what I am accustomed to. Let me know your thoughts on this matter. Thanks in advance.
http://allengelhard.com/definitive-pages/engelhard-10oz-class/ Looks fairly good according to this website, but I am not close to an expert in these.
On the portrait varieties, which one did you choose and compare the bar with? I am asking to see if I am looking at the same thing you are. Thanks.
I couldn't find my charger for my scale...going to try to weigh here at the hospital on the scales they have here...when I find out the weight I will post it. Thanks.
Imagine 10 Silver Eagles - will they fit in the volume of that bar? It looks like it'll be a tight squeeze - that is, if it's exact or too small But to echo others, make sure to weigh it - it should weigh 10 troy oz... Or, 10.9714 standard oz. = 311.035 grams.
Looks legit to me - but I would also take it to my LCS shop so they could use their magic gun on it. Here are a couple of 10 oz'ers I have - just to see the comparison between poured and flat bars. I personally(and I don't know why) like poured bars the best.
I weighed it on a stamps.com scale that had a 0.1 oz Accuracy printed on it. It came out to 11oz. When I weight my other Engelhard bards they weighed the same thing...so i guess it is legit. I also try the magnet and it worked too. Thanks for everyone's input.
