This is a 1 oz silver proof bar issued by the Mount Everest Mint.
The bar depicts a human form of the star-sign Aquarius, and comes in limited edition slabbed packaging. It is dated 1974.
It is struck in a proof finish in .999 fine silver, which is unusual for silver bars, making this product a very interesting collector's item.
Little is known about the Mount Everest Mint, who were based in the United States. They seem to have specialised in collectable silver bullion bars in the early 1970s.
