<p>[QUOTE="1970 Silver Art, post: 1180250, member: 18828"]The Abbott and Costello silver art bar that you are referring was minted in 1978 by GreatHouse Productions. The bar that you have is the mispelled version. The serial # is on the side of this bar. Generally speaking, GreatHouse Productions silver art bars are very hard to find on the local level. Most of the GreatHouse silver art bars are found on ebay as BIN auctions. They sell for a very high premium over spot on ebay at the BIN price. The mintage that I see for this GreatHouse Abbott and Costello silver art bar is 175 according to the 4th edition of Archie Kidd's book titled "An Indexed Guide Book of Silver Art Bars". I have not seen one on ebay as a regular auction but I have seen some BIN prices on ebay in the past and some of the prices can range from $85 to $100. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have not had any luck on finding GreatHouse art bars locally because the low mintage numbers makes them hard to find. I buy them on ebay but I usually wait until one is put up on ebay as a regular auction. I do not bother with the Buy-It-Now (BIN) prices because they are too high IMO. </p><p><br /></p><p>That is an excellent art bar find and it is a rare silver art bar.
