DESCRIPTION:
Numitelics International - Nelson A. Rockefeller
This landscape variety of Engelhard bar was engraved post-production by Numitelics International and is a private issue limited to 1000 pieces. Each bar was engraved on both sides with the obverse reflecting Numitelics International hallmark on the left and secondary serial number on the right. There was no assurance as to which commercial bars were used for engraving; therefore, the total issuance of engraved Engelhard bars is unknown.
We believe Engelhard Industries of Canada produced this bar in 1973 and that it was engraved by Numitelics International in 1974 to commemorate the inauguration of Nelson A. Rockefeller as Vice President of the United States.
NOTE: This bar does not appear on the 1oz Definitive Page as the novelty counterstamp was not applied by Engelhard.
