ENGELHARD
is pleased to welcome visitors to our Johnson Matthey 1oz Definitive Page. While our focus is clearly Engelhard, we recognize that many Engelhard bullion collectors also collect Johnson Matthey bars and ingots. As such, we appreciate the opportunity to present important bullion information on another of the world’s most collectible refiners, Johnson Matthey. We hope you welcome this new addition, and we look forward to your thoughts and input!

Please be sure to visit our Western Mint, Inc. and Western Silver, Ltd. Definitive Page at this LINK to review examples produced by the historically important Canadian representative of Johnson Matthey & Mallory.

Screen Shot 2016-04-04 at 10.28.55 AM1oz[JM Crossed Hammers Logo] [JOHNSON MATTHEY] [ASSAYERS & REFINERS] [FINE SILVER 999] [1 OUNCE TROY] [Serial Number][JM Crossed Hammers Logo Repeated Seven Full Times]1oz example first produced in 1982 by Johnson Matthey. The reverse of these bars are not always aligned exactly the same. It seems that they are very similar, yet not always identical. Also, it appears that there was a slight redesign on the obverse, making the lettering and lines slightly thicker, somewhere between 297,000 to 639,000. This difference in font boldness may be seen in the comparison photo below.  It appears that when 999,999 was hit, an ‘R’ prefix was used with a 5-digit number, for example ‘R 01234′. Some examples were issued in plastic and includes assay certificates, pictured below.  Please note the varied serial number assignments, spanning from a five-digit and six-digit non prefix to the R-prefix examples noted in the next column.
