Each bar was manufactured by Asahi with 100 ounces of .999 fine poured silver to measure 163mm x 33mm. Because these are poured silver bars, there will be minor variations in the exact shape of each bar, and may also show signs of wear and tear. Though shape may vary, the value of this silver bar will not.

Asahi Assayers and Refiners owns and operates an IRA approved mint (ISO9001). The ISO9001 certification guarantees the metal weight and purity of each 100 oz silver bar and ensures that each has been manufactured with the industry’s highest standards of production quality. Consequently, Asahi Silver Bullion qualifies for self-directed Precious Metals IRAs.

The obverse of the 100 oz Asahi Silver Bar features the Asahi Assayers Refiners SLC logo at the top, and the logo of the Asahi Assay Office at the bottom. “100 OZ”, and “999” are also stamped on the obverse of the bar. The reverse of the bar is smooth.

Like many other privately minted bullion products, the Asahi 100 oz Silver Bar will not carry the same premium as sovereign minted bullion, though the metal purity and production quality are the same. Savvy precious metals investors use privately minted gold and silver bullion to maximize the buying power of their financial resources.
