Value these items

[Thurbane]

Hi, just two questions about some “treasure” items I’m going to use in an upcoming game:

Adamantine mortar and pestle (for crushing gems) – what would you value these at?

Silver bars – what is a reasonable weight (and value) for silver trade bricks?

Cheers - T

As coins are worth their weight in the respective material,and it's 50 coins to the pound, silver bars would be 50 sp per pound , or 5gp per pound.

Adding adamantine to a weapon is 3000 gp , so I would price the mortar at 1000 gp (about 1/3rd the material of an adamantine greatsword)

Thanks for the reply.

With the silver bar, what I guess I'm really asking is what's a realistic size/weight per bar? Something about the size of the stereotypical "gold bar" you'd see in movies like Goldfinger...
