Purchasing platinum bullion can be effortless if you choose to invest in platinum bars. The market for platinum has witnessed considerable volatility during the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Over time, Engelhard emerged as a prominent refiner of platinum bullion. Right now, you can buy 1 oz Platinum Bars from Engelhard online from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
With your purchase of the 1 oz Platinum Bar from Engelhard in this Provident Metals listing, you will receive a bar that is in a protective plastic bag. As Secondary Market items, Provident Metals did not receive them directly from the original manufacturer. Therefore, some bars may exhibit flaws or signs of wear and tear. Additionally, the design of each bar may differ slightly.
Obverse
The obverse design of the Engelhard Platinum Bars features the United States Silver Corporation’s (USSC) logo, a circular seal depicting a heraldic eagle design with the company’s full name. Additionally, the bars bear markings indicating that Engelhard produced them on behalf of the USSC. Inscriptions on this field include PRODUCED FOR AND MARKETED BY UNITED STATES SILVER CORP. VAN NUYS, CALIF.
Reverse
On the reverse side of the 1 oz Platinum Bars from Engelhard, you’ll find identifying hallmarks such as weight, purity, and metal content. These bars also come with a serial number and the name of Engelhard. Those markings on this side read ONE TROY OUNCE, .999+ PURE PLATINUM, ENGELHARD MINERALS & CHEMICAL CORPORATION, and the individual serial number.
History
