Back: plain, as are the ends of the bar. The left side as facing is engraved A. Blum, Jr. / from / A. Brisacher in fancy script; the side was highly polished to receive the engraving. The right side simply reads ROUNDLOW. in stamped letters. According to the Ford cataloger: “The identities of A Blum and A. Brisacher are unknown. ‘Roundlow’ is likely the source of the silver that made the bar, but whether it was the name of a mine, a small claim, or something else is unknown to the cataloger.”
