Fractional Silver- What do you think they are worth?

A long, long time ago I got sixteen (16) 5 gram rounds. I have been collecting coins since the early 70s and I have never seen these before or know who exactly made them.

What do you think these are worth each?

The round says: Dawn of Liberty on one side and 5 grams. On the other side it has the date i.e. 1979 and the words: Metric Silver Piece 5 Grams .999 Pure Silver

They are the size of a penny...

Also, I have one 5 gram JM Bar

I would say 10 bucks a piece but you might be able to get more selling them as rare to bullion collectors on e-bay.

You could probably get 15 or 20 on the j and m via eBay. Not sure about the others

I'd give you $10 each on the rounds and $15 on the JM bar :D

Nate, you got any idea on who might have made these? You have been buying this type of stuff longer that I have I'm sure. Just curious.. :?:

Nope, I haven't seen them before. I did find that APMEX has a listing for a 25 gram gold version, but they don't seem to know who made them either.
