[QUOTE="sage55, post: 1520662, member: 39982"]I'm a complete noobie and I've just started collecting silver coins and my local dealer turned me on to these silver bars that on one side show a picture of historical US events. He said they are 1.85oz silver bars and even showed me the weight of 1.86 troy oz. At any rate I get home and notice on the top of the bar in very small print is the word "Sterling" which makes me think this isn't pure silver even though he sold it at the same rate as his 1oz American Silver Eagles ($37.50 per ASE) and I paid $69 for the bar. Is this thing silver or no? [ATTACH]198614.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]198615.vB[/ATTACH] Thanks! [B]EDIT:[/B] looks like the forum resized the pictures to tiny size... next to the word Sterling looks to be a copyright symbol, then the next box I can't really make out maybe a Y or 4, then next to it a a box with the number 76 in it and the last box is the letter P.[/QUOTE]
