Additional Description: Struck in .999+ fine silver, this 1 troy ounce Engelhard bar is marked with the serial number PU 99765, placing it within the company’s pressed bar series, a format favored for its compact, uniform design and precise finish. Engelhard’s use of an alphanumeric serial system, as seen here with the “PU” prefix, was part of its effort to ensure traceability and authenticity during a period when private mints were gaining significant traction among individual investors. Unlike the more rugged, poured bars of larger denominations, these smaller pressed examples reflect a refined approach to bullion production, balancing purity with portability.
