What’s in a Mint….

Afternoon everyone ….

Today I will be sharing a piece of silver from one of if not the best mints in the world, and give you a little history on them.

Geiger Edelmetalle is one of the foremost producers of silver precious metals in the world today. Its products have a long reputation for quality and beauty, and with added security features introduced in recent years, Geiger silver for sale is among the most secure against counterfeiting.

The Geiger traditional square bar contains one troy ounce of .999 pure silver. The obverse includes the headquarters of Geiger at the Schloss Guldengossa castle in Germany.

On the obverse of the one ounce Geiger Traditional Square Silver Bar is a pressed design in the center of Schloss Guldengossa. This German castle was constructed in 1720 in Leipzig, and today serves as the registered headquarters of Geiger Edelmetalle. It is accompanied on this side by engravings of the refinery name above, and the weight, metal content, and purity below.

Flip the bar over to the reverse and you’ll find a repeating logo rhombus that features “LEV” in the center of it. On the lower portion of the bar’s reverse you’ll find a rectangle stamped into the bar that features the unique serial number of each individual product using a one-letter, seven-number code. In the center, visible only under black light, you’ll find another “LEV” rhombus that serves as a security feature for the bar.

Geiger Edelmetalle was originally founded in 1218 as part of Germany’s oldest silver mining and trading. Leipzig and the surrounding region was the heart of German silver production for centuries, and today Geiger operates various facilities in the region to produce silver bullion.

Now for the bar in question….
