<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jason.A, post: 2750677, member: 87620&quot;]I know it&#039;s unnerving at first, but large makers like A-Mark produce rounds and bars for mints all around the world. If you buy large bars from them the serial number area is left blank. They supply silver to the Canadian mint. They also provide silver in large orders to small producers, who may want a custom design on the bar and their own serial numbers.</p><p><br /></p><p>The RCM produces their own bars with security ridges on the sides plus serial numbers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Remember, when buying bullion bars, it should be expected that when reselling a dealer will want to acid test it anyway, so a serial number is only an extra security feature. If you buy from a reputable big dealer in the first place, I personally don&#039;t care about having a security number because I trust that it&#039;s valid and have resigned myself to knowing my future buyer will acid test it anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
