About First Mint
First Mint stands out in the silver bullion market due to its unique ownership structure. Unlike other mints, which are either government-owned or privately held, First Mint benefits from the backing of a publicly traded mining company, First Majestic Silver Corp.
This innovative partnership enhances value for First Majestic’s investors and underscores the company’s commitment to transparency throughout the silver production lifecycle. Unlike other miners, First Majestic ensures that the silver it mines is the same silver customers receive. Their silver is refined from 95% pure silver bars into .999+ pure silver, providing the high-quality material that First Mint uses to craft its finished bullion.
First Mint’s process is distinct from many other mining companies that deal in concentrated silver, which often has to be shipped overseas for smelting and refining. This not only incurs prohibitive shipping costs but also makes it impossible to guarantee the silver's origin. At First Mint, each cast bar is hand poured, struck, and burnished to a high shine by skilled artisans in the USA. As a result, no two bars are identical, each displaying unique properties such as slight pockets, dimples, and ripples.
First Mint takes pride in continuing this classic metallurgy process using silver mined by First Majestic. Their dedication to quality and transparency ensures that each silver bar is a true masterpiece, reflecting the artistry and precision of their skilled craftsmen.
