The Madison Mint

in LeoFinance4 years ago (edited)

Vintage silver is a fun way to stack!

A small number of mints produce silver bars with an artistic flourish.

The Madison Mint silver bars are worth mentioning. Produced sometime in the latter days of the Roaring 60’s to the latter 1970’s by the now defunct Madison Mint of the United States of America, these silver ‘art bars’ as they are called have become collectors’ items that have far exceeded their normal price as bullion, especially with the ever-broadening interest in precious metal that has caught much of the world by storm these days.

Like this horoscope one...

The Madison Mint was a privately owned minting company that reached the zenith of its production during the ‘70s over which very little information regarding its history remains; what remains, however, are large numbers of high-quality .999 fine silver bars with highly detailed and tooled designs that have as of late become all the rage in collectors’ circles and even numismatic organizations.

This is about 48 years old and has kept its shine.


Madison Mint’s specialized silver art bars featured an array of themes and designs that range from the historical, the sentimental, to the whimsical. Among their most prized pieces are the 1976 bi-centennial celebratory presidential profile silver bars which feature the bust of 37 American presidents beginning with George Washington, and ending with Gerald Ford. Aside from historical pieces, Madison Mint’s silver art bars also feature everything from depictions of nearly every dog breed, to historical depictions of various model cars.
