<p>[QUOTE="GrandFCoins, post: 135627, member: 5767"]I have recently aquired an extensive collection of coins from my now deceased grandfather who was an avid collector. Among his collection were two metal bars, silver in color, stamped w/ the name "Moffat & Co" on one side, the number 20 on all 4 corners, C/D Stamp, and US on both. On the opposite side, one bar says "6oz", C/D -> "1852" and has a depression like a coin in the center. I can make out a ring and what looks like several stars surrounding the coin. Perhaps a face or some other blob in the center. The second bar is almost identical however instead of 6oz, it is marked 8 oz. Unknown metal, probably not silver, although it has a grey dull finish. Any information anyone has regarding these bars would be greatly appreciated. I will probably be using this forum quite extensivly in the future since I am not quite as knowledgeable as my Grandfather was, but he has some wonderful gem pieces that my grandmother wants sold now to help suppliment her retirement. Thank you all in advance for any small piece of information that you might be able to shed on this situation. </p><p>Nate. </p><p><br /></p><p>P.S.
