Engelhard Commercial Bar

[Hallmark in Elongated Octagon]  [1 TROY OZ.]  [.999 FINE SILVER]  [Serial Number]

Frosted, with a border.

The purity stamp was revised from ‘.999 FINE SILVER’ to ‘.999+FINE SILVER’ and  font changes were made [e.g. the ‘S’ in ‘Silver’ was changed from a serif font to sans-serif] and the ‘H’ in Engelhard is slightly wider. Apparently, few survived melting. Note that some have a single letter prefix [‘P’] and some have a space between the prefix and the numbers [e.g. ‘P   59250′].  Occasionally observed in serial placement error as seen on bar PA83079, also pictured.

Information from All Engelhard.
