<p>[QUOTE="SingaporeCoinGy, post: 39184, member: 781"]I just came across this post and I would like to add that this website asiannumismatic.com is owned by me. This Hong Kong & Shanghai Specie Office Silver Ingot is genuine .999 Silver. The reason Victoria's bust does not look like one appearing on a colonial coin is that it was cast in HongKong and not in a mint in the U.K. Probably done by a local silversmith appointed by the HongKong & Shanghai Specie Office. The reverse has orange/reddish spots because in the casting process bubbles appeared and formed holes, these holes have toned over the years and thus appears orange/red. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sarawakian,</p><p><br /></p><p>Even if you wanted to pay me US$1,800.00, I would not be able to sell this ingot to you, simply because it was sold some time ago. I've offered to buy it back at $250.00, but the buyer refuses to part with it. This item was deleted from my site after it was sold but due to gremlins on the internet, this ingot appeared again, for this I apologize, it will be taken out shortly. I have two other individual's wanting to purchase a similar ingot if I am able to obtain them. If it were a fake and if I were unscrupulous, I would have them coming out of my ears and I would easily fill the demand. With all due respect, you should have contacted me and asked me any questions pertaining to this ingot. I remember clearly that before Roy (Satootoko) purchased a Meiji 1 Yen Silver crown, he asked a number of question about the coin before purchasing it. By the way, I clearly stated on my site that copying the digital photo's is not permitted.
