I have here a 3 lbs ingot on top it says in raised letters Hewitt Genuine On the back it is stamped GEN571. When dropped from a few inches it has a ring to it not a dull thud. Any ideas?
One more thing you can definitely tell it was poured into a mold.

TC66--You have a very rare Hewitt Genuine Ingot. Hewitt ingots are amongst the most sought after--rare and valuable. Hewitt being a well known ingot maker of artistic quality. If it has NEVER been dropped it is worth several grand---but if dropped even if just once--it's value drops to the value of its' weight.
whatever you have it's genuine.
i would try to google the hewitt part.
ray: you kill me.
Carpetman it was dropped on carpet so no visable damage. Tell you what I will make you a deal. $250 shipped. If it is worth thousand you can make a nice profit.
Tried the google thing. Hewitt Ingot, Hewitt Genuine Ingot, Hewitt Genuine GEN571. Nothing!!!!! Posting pics here in a few
