Bullion and Collectable Condition Information
Each coin is supplied brand new in a protective acrylic capsule.
As a bullion coin, minor contact marks, light handling marks or small scratches may occasionally be present from the minting and packaging process. These are normal characteristics of bullion coinage and do not affect the silver content, purity or intrinsic bullion value.
Silver naturally tones over time when exposed to environmental conditions. This is a natural characteristic of fine silver, and many collectors appreciate the unique patina that develops with age.
