Unboxing my 63 oz binge - Part 5-2: My honey hole LCS trip Western States Refining
The binge continues
This is a continuation of my unboxing of my 63oz binge. This is part 2 of my 32oz buy at my honey hole LCS! This place is over 3 hours away, and only open M-F and only if the market is open. That takes away much of the time I could get down there, having the markets closed around the holidays makes it tough. I knew this was likely to happen, in the past he has had Hoffman & Hoffman rounds, Golden Analytical Bars, lots of interesting stuff. I tend to buy anything he has that older and looks like it might carry a premium.
Running Total 33oz
JM Bullion Order that Started it all | Provident Order | First JM 10oz Bar | 5oz Silvertowne Bar | 1oz Engelhard bar | 2012 Religious Holiday Bar | 2015 Religious Holiday Bar | Year of of the Rooster | City Liquidators
Western States Refining
Facts from Allengelhard.com
- 1oz round produced by Western States Refining of Fontana, California. We believe these rounds were produced in the early 1980’s.
- Mintage: <1,000
Price?
Not many sales on eBay from what I see, only a total of three comps. I have included shipping cost since to normalize for any difference between sellers.
$19.5
$19.5
$32
A little surprising for such a low mintage, doesn't seem to be much of a collector market for these just yet. The two lower were auctions and higher price was a BIN. I will definitely remember if I go to sell. I may see if I can get a few more for just a few dollars over spot, might be nice to see if I can track down 5 or 10 or these.
I will keep unboxing the binge below, the first two are finished, next up is an Amark Liberty Bell. Follow along for some more vintage rounds!

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold
Nice rounds. Can't say I've ever seen one like that. Keep'em coming @senstless.
Thanks!, I thought I might have another and spent a while digging but couldn't it. Also couldn't find a few other bars I thought I had. Most likely I sold them on FB or Reddit for a profit to buy more. I need to actually reconcile my collection vs tracker spreadsheet and see what I have.

The problem with @dustsweeper now is that it is upvoting only two comments a day. Too many customers and too few SP...
Well crap - I did notice that I seemed to be getting fewer upvotes, I figured it I had just not gotten any upvotes. Crap back to not voting comments. and just posts.... hopefully if STEEM picks back up they can increase or get a bigger lease.
