One of the first rare 5 oz ingots I ever bought was a Cincinnati piece and still to this day, it’s one of my top 10 favorite 5 oz pieces. These bars have become extremely hard to find and whenever they come on the market, they are snapped up quickly. You may hear the term “Tier 1 Bar” from time to time and not understand what this is. It means bars in this classification are the most rare and fetch the highest premiums. Cincinnati are in this class, particularly the 5 and 10 oz pieces. The 25+ oz Cinci bars also command excellent premiums, but not quite to the level of the 5s and 10s.

Is there any way you can point me in the right direction to gets full value.

Thanks for all the great content,.. the thing I struggle with is,.. trying to gauge pricing/value, for the various weight bars… especially larger bars (25,50,100). I understand most collectors prefer smaller bars, this makes “value” confusing (for me) on the larger pours.

The larger the bar, the lower the premium. Small bars from 1-5 oz carry incredibly higher premiums as a rule of thumb. ________________________________
