Johnson Matthey was one of the longest operating brands in the precious metals industry, with a history that dates back as far as the early 1800s in Britain. As of 2014, the company’s 160-plus-year history in silver and gold production came to an end with the sale of its operations to Japan’s Asahi Refining. Now, new products are hitting the market with the Asahi Metals logo as the new company hits its stride in production. Silver.com now offers the 10 oz Silver Asahi Refining Bar in new condition.

Bar Highlights:

  • Ships to you sealed in protective plastic.
  • These bars are available in brand-new condition!
  • Consists of Ten Troy ounces of .999 fine silver.
  • Obverse features the Asahi Metals logo with markings for weight and purity.
  • Reverse bears the repeating Asahi Metals logo.
  • Guaranteed by Asahi Refining.
  • Eligible for use in Precious Metals IRAs.

Asahi Refining completed a $186 million purchase of Johnson Matthey’s silver and gold production facilities in March 2015. The company immediately began working to turn out silver bars from the North American locations under the new Asahi Refining brand. From the start, Asahi’s designs replicate those of Johnson Matthey as it likely uses the molds the British company had been using for years.

The production of Asahi Refining silver bars was delayed in 2015 as demand for silver hit all-new highs around the globe. This choked the global supply of silver, making it difficult for the refiner to get a wide variety of new products out in the market. Larger weights came out first, with production now catching up to demand for the popular 1 oz and 10 oz varieties.

On the obverse of the 10 oz Silver Asahi Refining Bar you’ll find the Asahi Metals logo at the top of the bar, followed by an engraving of “Asahi Refining.” Below this you’ll notice the engravings of “Fine Silver 999” in a rectangular box, with the weight of the bar listed as “10 Troy Ounces” at the bottom.

The reverse of each Asahi Refining Silver Bar bears only the repeating logo of Asahi Metals. Resembling the combination of the letters “A” and “M,” the logo is set at a 45-degree angle and repeats across the face of the reverse with as many as seven full incarnations of the logo visible on the bar.

Asahi Refining opened its doors as a refiner of recycled precious metals from the manufacturing and industrial sectors in Tokyo, Japan in 1952. Its purchase of Johnson Matthey’s production facilities gave it control of refineries in Salt Lake City, Utah and Brampton, Ontario, Canada. An additional investment casting facility in St. Catharines, Canada was included in the purchase as well.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
