Scottsdale Mint 1 oz .999 fine silver Tombstone round – SKU #34002

Description

This one troy ounce .999 silver round from Scottsdale Mint is more than just bullion – it is a link to the legendary town of Tombstone, Arizona and its rich history as a boomtown fueled by silver mining. A key city of the Wild West days, Tombstone became notorious for its rough patrons who were enamored with pursuing wealth from rugged careers in silver mining, dueling, cattle driving, boozing, prostitution and gambling. The real-life characters Wyatt Earp and his fast-draw, gun-slinging friend Doc Holliday are embodied into many thrilling tales of what life was like during these semi-lawless days. This hammered silver round pays tribute to all of the fortunes made during this silver boom as it depicts the crude forms of silver rounds used for barter/trade before civilization (and the law) eventually spread west.

Obverse: The Scottsdale Mint logo, the weight, and purity are all inscribed on a hammered finish.

Reverse: “TOMBSTONE HAMMERED SILVER” is inscribed on the center of a hammered finish.

Diameter: 39 mm; Thickness: 3.1 mm.
