A wreath graces both sides of this centerpiece while identifying marks are thoughtfully positioned at the round’s top and bottom edges. These marks include ONE TROY OUNCE, 31.1 GRAMS, .999 FINE SILVER, and SILVER TRADE UNIT.

Reverse

The reverse field of the 1 oz U.S. Assay Office Vintage Art Round reveals additional identifying marks. Inscriptions on this field include MINTED FROM U.S. STRATEGIC STOCKPILE SILVER, 1981, CC, and FORMERLY STORED AT U.S. ASSAY OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO.

History

The Hunt Brothers attempted to dominate the silver market by stockpiling silver in anticipation of market fluctuations. Their holdings once accounted for around a third of all non-governmental silver. By January 1, 1979, the silver price surged from a little over $6 to an astounding $49.45 per ounce in just a year, resulting in the government’s decision to flood the market with 165 million ounces of silver. This strategic move left the Hunt Brothers with substantial losses exceeding a billion dollars.
