Buffalo Design .999 Fine Silver 1 Troy Ounce Bar

This item is a 1 Troy Ounce rectangular bullion bar, struck in .999 fine silver. The design features a raised, circular medallion on the top half containing the right-facing profile of a Native American chieftain, a design famously inspired by James Earle Fraser’s 1913 Buffalo Nickel. The word 'LIBERTY' is struck along the upper right edge of the circular inset. Below the central design, the bar is clearly stamped with its metal purity and weight: '.999 FINE SILVER ONE TROY OUNCE'. The bar has a high-relief strike with a mirrored or proof-like finish in the recessed fields, providing a sharp contrast against the frosted textured elements of the chieftain's portrait and the block lettering. Physically, it is housed in a clear, protective hard-plastic acrylic slab (capsule) which has helped preserve its condition. There is no visible signs of significant oxidation, toning, or milk spotting on the silver surface, though minor shelf wear is present on the exterior plastic casing. The craftsmanship indicates a private mint production, a common practice for contemporary silver bullion issued for investors and collectors. Its condition appears to be 'Brilliant Uncirculated' based on the lack of visible contact marks or wear on the high points of the design.
