Journey into Silver's Past: A Resource for Collectors of Old Silver Bars
Australian Bullion Company
When it comes to Australian vintage bullion, there are the Big 3, Perth, Harringtons, and ABC. Hard for me to like one over the other, as they are all so beautiful. ABC has been around since 1972 and still in business today out of Melbourne, Victoria Australia. They are high premium ingots, but not to the level of Perth and Harringtons ingots. Regardless, these are absolute gems if you can find them. It’s taken me quite some time to assemble the following collection, which are all from my personal collection
A trio of 100 Gram ABC ingots. These are among my very favorite 100 gram size pieces in the stack.
Beautiful toning forming on reverse of the 100 gram ingots.
This is a non weight stamp variety, but weighs 93 grams. This has a “D” lot number on reverse. See reverse pic at the end of this post in the family photo. The individual photo did not come out right when posting this bar.Extremely rare 1 oz finger pour variety. I’ve seen one other like this.Reverse pic.Another exceptionally rare piece that ABC made for now defunct Pyramid Building Society. One of my favorite smalls.Beautifully toned 1 oz pressed style variety. In fantastic condition.Reverse pic.Family photo!Reverse pic.
Here is a new update to the ABC Blog. A fellow collector in Australia, Bradley J. recently contacted me through the blog with a very rare and unique ABC 52.2 gram ingot. This is a stunning piece. Enjoy the pics and thank you Bradley!
Very unique and the first I have seen in this variety/shape.Obverse pic with purity stamp.Great shot showing the side view. Just a killer piece!
Hope you enjoyed this blog entry. Comments are welcome. Would love to hear from like minded collectors.

I’ve got one with no weight marked on it in the original box about 70-100 grams I think with a A marked on the back
