    Description

    These are cast copper Indian Face bookend ingots made at the former White Pine copper mine at White Pine, Michigan.
    The pair weigh about 6 pounds and measure about 1-3/4 inches by 5-1/2 inches and are 2-1/2 inches deep at the base.
    One of the ingots had excess copper/sprues neatly ground off of an edge and was slightly underfilled near the top edge on one side.
    These were being poured up until 1982 when the mine began producing pure copper by the electrolytic process.
    See page 51 of my book for pictures and information,
    White Pine Copper: An Illustrated History of the Mine and Its Ingots.
    This book is available from my ebay store.
    The White Pine mine produced over 4 billion pounds of copper and 45 million ounces of silver from 1955 to 1995.
    Shipped by padded flat rate envelope.
    If you buy more than one lot in my sale, I will reduce the postage, but please wait for the combined shipping invoice before you pay.
