General Auction including Antiques & Collectables, Gold & Silver.
This single silver bullion piece is cast and machined in the form of a rifle cartridge, mimicking the profile of a .308 Winchester calibre round. The item features a brushed, machined finish with visible concentric turning lines along the body and neck sections. The base of the piece, mimicking a primer and headstamp, displays several stamped markings including the SilverTowne Mint maker’s mark of a crossed hammer and pickaxe. Verbatim markings transcribed from the base include 2 OZ, 999, and AG, identifying the item as 2 troy ounces of .999 fine silver. Visual inspection on a digital scale confirms a weight of 2.206 ounces (avoirdupois), which is consistent with the stated 2 troy ounce precious metal content. The physical condition is excellent, exhibiting only minor surface scuffs and handling marks characteristic of bullion pieces.
Condition report:
The item exhibits a well-preserved brushed finish with distinct turning lines. There are minor handling marks and superficial scuffs consistent with storage and handling. The base stamps are clear and legible. This is an inert bullion item and not functional ammunition.
