<p>[QUOTE="1970 Silver Art, post: 990613, member: 18828"]I am glad that I was able to be of some help to you, however, silver art bars are just bullion. Silver art bars are not considered numismatics and therefore will not have a "grade". When you take a silver art bar or any silver bullion bar to sell at a local dealer, the local dealer will only give you spot minus a discount. Since you paid $20 for it, the local dealer might give you between $17 to $19 for it if you decide to sell it back to a dealer. That would be a big mistake. Local dealers will not care about "rarity" values. They only care about silver value. </p><p><br /></p><p>Ebay is your best bet because ebay buyers will pay a large premium over spot for that Coke bar. I am going to be very conservative when I say that a coke bar like the one you have will easily have a winning bid of $100 on ebay. It will more than likely go for way more than $100 on ebay but I was being super conservative with that $100 winning bid. I would not even bother to take it to another dealer. Sell it on ebay in a regular auction format and let the ebay buyers bid it up. I promise you that you will get a better price for it than any local dealer is willing to pay you for it. You will not be disappointed with the winning bid that you get for that coke bar when you sell it on ebay.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
