<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nicholas Molinari, post: 8535272, member: 78411&quot;]What differentiates stamped bullion from coins? I suspect these ingots were valued as bullion and intended for an international payment, whereas with coins the exchange value was (just a little) more than the intrinsic value from the start. So I would call the silver ingot a proto-coin. But really I haven’t read much about these interesting objects.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
