A great way to introduce someone to collecting precious metals. Our Smiling Santa assay bars will put a smile on somebody’s face when they open it Christmas morning. They are 1.75 inches long and weigh just under 5 ounces of pure .999 fine silver! We design and cut these molds then have our jeweler pour them one at a time outside of his workshop. Since these are poured outdoors, the texture and weight of the bars will vary due to the changing conditions of the weather. This makes every bar unique and no two bars will look exactly the same. When we mint our medallions, if they have flaws that don’t pass our quality control standard, we melt them down and pour them into different shaped bars. This is our fun way of recycling, we get to turn something flawed into a piece of art.
