While Provident has released some exciting new series over the past few months, we have some “classics” that are just as fun. One older series that we’d like to spotlight is the T-206 Baseball Great series of silver bars, and they are currently priced to sell. That’s right! From April 7th to the 21st, enter the promotional code “WHOSONFIRST” at checkout to get 25% to 30% off the listed price. These silver bars may never be priced this low again!
This silver bar series is based on the T-206 series of baseball trading cards that were produced from 1909 to 1911 by the American Tobacco Company. The fully colored cards came inside the packaging of cigarettes and loose tobacco products. Due to their quality printing and rarity, these cards are still among the most valuable baseball trading cards in the world.
The T-206 Baseball Great series features silver bars that commemorate these famous trading cards. Each colorized bar is made of one troy ounce of .999 fine silver. The shared obverse is designed to mimic classic cigarette packaging. The reverse displays both a photograph of the featured player, and a picture of his baseball card. The players in this series—along with the original tobacco card series—include Hall of Famers Honus Wagner, Cy Young, Christy Mathewson, Ty Cobb, and Walter Johnson.
Each silver bar is numbered and comes sonically sealed in a plastic casing for protection. The holder fits inside a sealed package that resembles a cigarette box from the era.
If you or a loved one is a baseball fan, check out these silver bars while they last. There’s no better way to celebrate the opening of baseball season than by treating yourself to some beloved memorabilia!
