Windmill Mine

The Windmill Mine was located in Clark County, NV and operated until the early nineteen hundreds. These ingots were most certainly commemorative pieces of some sort, but hugely popular and very scarce. They came in two types, a flat pour and a chunky pour. Below are bars that I still own or have previously owned.

This is a bar that I still own and the nicest example I’ve seen to date. Absolutely love the hallmark.

Nice character on the reverse.

Another collector shared a type 1 piece on 2/6/21 that is larger in size. I very rare piece to come across. Thanks to Josh C. for sharing this!

Amazing to see the date. Purchase was made from Forth Worth Gold and Silver. Beautiful ingot.
Bigger zoomed in view. Nice toning!
Lovely reverse character here.
Good view of the type 1 flat pour variety.
