Journey into Silver's Past: A Resource for Collectors of Old Silver Bars
Yellow Daisy Refining Company
Arizona has a rich history of precious metals refining. Yellow Daisy is one of the hallmarks that serious collectors are well aware of and frankly some of the toughest pieces to find, along with Arizona Assay Office pieces. Yellow Daisy made pieces ranging from 1, 5, 10, 25, and 50 oz class pieces. Below are images pieces that I previously owned.
5 oz class Yellow Daisy ingot. Incredibly rare and ultra high premium. I miss this bar!
10 oz class pieces come in two types as seen below. Type 1 is a more classic chunky old pour and type 2 a flat pour style.
This piece had incredible toning. I love the die used to stamp the weights and purity on these pieces.I regret letting this one get away. Nicest Daisy stamp I’ve ever seen. Absolute stunner type 2 ingot.
Very happy to share a 25 oz class piece from Prashant K’s collection, as well.
Beautiful stamp!Side view showing the thickness of this ingot. Reverse image.

If you had the opportunity to purchase either a 10oz yellow daisy or Smiths (same $), which would you select?

Steven, the 10 oz Daisy is worth more. If condition is good, it would be a no brainer for me to go with that bar.
