Hi all,

I usually don't mind what designs or art are on my silver rounds and bars, just as long as they say "one troy ounce fine (or .999) silver).

However, I saw that there is a brand of silver bullion maker that have their bars and coins sectioned on the reverse into partitions. For instance, a 1 oz silver round, made by this refiner, has sections of 1/2 oz, and 2 1/4 oz on its reverse, with lines detailing the precise amount. So, if neede, you could cut the coin (or bar) along the lines and get the 1/2 or 1/4 oz of silver, conveniently labeled.

Hope that makes sense, and I wish I had a picture to show this, but I don't, and I was wondering if anyone knows exactly who this refiner is and what their products are.

I know it's a gimmick, and you could cut an ordinary silver round into pieces the same way, but I like the Rambo-style labeled sections this refiner makes their bullion with.

Anyway, if anyone knows who they are, I'd appreciate it!

Only when they CAN'T have it, ......THEN they'll want it.

I love Cents. If you get an UNC box, you win. If you get a regular circ. box, you win. If you get a zinc box, you don't lose....so you still win.

I have two bars like you discribe. Front shows International Trade Unit, Two US flags, An Eagle and a Bell, somewhat like the coin Natsb88 linked. Stars and a wreath around border. Also very small "c c m" and the words "one troy ounce .999 fine silver. Back side of one is divided into 1/4 sections marked with "1/4 oz,.999 fine silver" in each section. The other one is divided in 1/2 and marked similarly. They are kind of interesting. Don't know about dividing the bar... and unclear who the minter is.

Found mine.

It's an "International Trade Unit" round with the scales on the front, and it's divided into 4 quarter-ounce wedges on the back. No mint name or mark.
