"In our opinion, the 99.9 percent pure, 5 troy ounce silver bar is the best of its kind being manufactured and marketed in the United States and is a unique and beautiful collectible," said Dr. John Whitney, Itronics President. "Itronics Metallurgical began offering these yearly dated bars through its 'e-store' catalog in 2001 at http://www.itronics.com and they are continuing to grow in popularity. Many people collect every year."

"Production of the 2008 and 2009 Silver Nevada Miner Bars was delayed due to financial constraints, but recently announced inventory funding has eased these concerns," said Dr. Whitney. "We have received so many requests from collectors that we are moving forward with the next bar in this series of popular collectibles and will continue the series with a 2009 and a 2010 bar in the future."

The Silver Nevada Miner bar was created to commemorate the long and eventful silver mining history of Nevada and is an excellent souvenir of Nevada, known as the "Silver State." The bars are 2 3/8 inches by 1 3/8 inches and are 1/4 inch thick. Each contains exactly 5 ounces of pure silver. The bars are "proof quality" and include a year-stamp authenticating the limited edition.

The top surface of the bar is engraved with an authentic reproduction of a miner in one of the famous "square-set" stopes of the Comstock Silver Mines at Virginia City, Nevada, in the mid-1860s. The bars are beautifully crafted making them an excellent gift item.
