During World War II, the SS Tilawa set out on a journey from Bombay, India, to Durban, South Africa. Unfortunately, the ship was struck by Japanese torpedoes and sank in the Indian Ocean, resulting in the tragic loss of many lives. Along with the passengers, 2,364 silver bars were lost to the depths. In 2017, after years underwater, 60 tons of this silver were recovered in a controversial salvage mission. Today, you can purchase 1 Kilo S.S. Tilawa Shipwreck Silver Bars at BGASC.

Obverse
The obverse of the S.S. Tilawa Shipwreck Silver Bar features an emblem that pays tribute to the S.S. Tilawa. It includes a circular seal with a silhouette of the ship, stylized waves, and anchors. The textured background adds depth to the design.
Reverse
On the reverse of 1 Kilo S.S. Tilawa Shipwreck Silver Bars, the S.S. Tilawa is depicted in action, sailing at sea. The rippled water and the ships name, along with the date it sank, complete the design.
History
For those interested in historical silver, the SS Tilawa Shipwreck Silver Series is a unique option. The ship, operated by the British India Steam Navigation Company, was sunk by a Japanese submarine on November 23, 1942, while transporting 60 tons of silver. The silver was recovered in 2017 and refined into new bars and rounds to celebrate the ship’s legacy and the effort to bring its silver to the surface once again.
