This Was One Ounce of Silver I Gladly Picked Up from one of my LCS's (Local Coin Shoppe) Yesterday.........

I Just Thought I would Share This Small ERROR in Spelling With Everyone this Morning.........

I Guess Great Lakes Mint did Not have a Proofreader Looking at Their Silver Art Bars before they were Released to the Public.......ERROR in the Spelling of Israel..........

It was the 25th Anniversary in 1973 of The State of Israel and the Misspelled It "ISREAL"........

It Happens and Mistakes in Silver Bars usually Make them More Valuable and Wanted for the Mistake........

The Reverse of the Silver Bar.........

I Like It a Little EXTRA Silver for the Money.
