Silver flags


These are pure silver ingot reproductions of early American flags (including the "Don't Tread on ME" flag - bottom row, fifth from the left). I think this was one of those "Franklin Mint" promotional from the U.S. Bicentennial (1976). My grandparents bought it for me way back then, and it sat on their shelf for a number of years. I think I only got it after my grandfather died a few years ago. I'm not sure of the collector's value, but the silver is probably worth whatever the current market price is.
