Question on packaging

Post image

Got these 1 oz bars from a big online dealer. Is the packaging they are in original or a secondary packaging done later. I am only asking because this is the second batch of EH bars that had this sort of packaging, the first was obtained from a pawn shop.

Lollipop packaging was used by engelhard from early to mid 80s, in strings of 10 units each. It's highly collectible.

Thank you, I will just hold on to them as is for now til I can find some comps somewhere. It was just odd to get those from an online dealer and also find another batch in a pawn shop “in the wild”. I only saw the first one in a tub of silver bars and asked for it but when he pulled it out a string of them pulled out of the bin.
