***For this listing, the buyer will receive an SBS Frac Pack, which features a total of five (5) items. The first is a vintage 1985 Engelhard American Prospector 1oz Silver Round featuring the iconic Silver Eagle logo. The second is a RARE fractional 1/2 oz American Prospector round from 1985 also produced by Engelhard. 1985 was the only year that Engelhard produced fractional rounds and there are only 50k of these particular rounds that were produced according to AllEngelhard.com, making it and increasingly collectible piece. The third item is an EXTREMELY RARE fractional 1/4 oz American Prospector round from 1985 also produced by Engelhard and this is the lowest mintage of all the 1985 fractional rounds at only 25k minted. The fourth item is another hard-to-find fractional 1/10 oz American Prospector round from 1985 also produced by Engelhard, which has a lower mintage of less than 50k (compared to the 1oz variety, which is less than 75k minted). The fifth and final item is a generic 1 gram commemorative American Prospector round, which is not produced by Engelhard. The items pictured showcase items in similar condition to those you will receive. Plastic capsules will NOT be included and they are for presentation purposes only. A vast majority of our Prospector rounds are in good to very good condition, but some do exhibit heavier toning and imperfections in line with their age. The rounds are decades old and so they may show some signs of wear and tear consistent with their age such as scratches, blemishes, slight rim damage or discoloration/toning. Please inspect photos closely before placing your order so you know what to expect! Please keep an eye out on our store for more Prospector Stack Packs.***
