JM Johnson Matthey 20 oz Old Poured Silver Bullion Bar (No Tax)
Founded in 1817, Johnson Matthey was one of the founding members of the London Gold Fix -- the British organization that determined the benchmark price of gold. This lent the company a respectability that, for nearly two hundred years, made it one of the most trusted bullion dealers in the English-speaking world. Though JM still exists, they ceased the production of silver bars in 2015 -- making them both trusted investment pieces and historical curiosities that often trade above melt value.
This 20-ounce silver bar likely dates to at least the early 1960s, as hand-poured bars were generally phased out in favour of pressed bars into the 1970s. Poured bars are recognizable by their rippled, uneven texture. These tend to be quite rare these days, as most of them were melted down in the 1980s.
