Lot 202: SilverTowne Mint .308 Calibre Cartridge Silver Bullion 2 Ounce .999 Fine 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.
