Pirate Roberts Coin in Fine Silver
Take no prisoners...
The Golden Age of Piracy saw the rise of The Great Pyrate, Bartholomew Roberts. A scourge of the Atlantic, Roberts and his crew terrorized hundreds of ships aboard the Royal Fortune. One only had to glimpse the infamous Jolly Roger flag and a dash of scarlet coattails on the ocean's horizon to know that they were next.
☠ Pure .999 silver
☠ 1/4 Troy oz (8 g)
☠ 86 in (2.2 cm) in diameter
Though "Black Bart" Roberts never minted any of his own doubloons, we like to think this Pirate Robert Copper coin comes pretty close! Its design is struck in very high relief, so no sailor will ever overlook the grisly visage it depicts.
This coin is treated to look as if it has been handled and circulated between many pirates' treasure chests. This process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science. Coloring and patinas will vary. No two coins are exactly the same! Coins are struck in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. A colorful description is included with history and facts about the coin.

Our Process
Shire Post Mint coins are struck one at a time in West Fork, Arkansas, USA using solid metals, hand-engraved designs, antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. For antiqued coins, the coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Our unique packaging includes a description of each coin and translations if applicable.

This small but heavyweight coin, an SPM staple for years, features some of the deepest embossing/engraving of all their coins and really stands out as a result.
Silver coins and pirates go so well together that it makes perfect sense for this one to be available in silver as well as the existing copper version. Really nice weathering brings out the detail brilliantly.
Good price and a nice item for my collection.
Very nice coin, about the size of a dime. Feels like it dropped straight out of the movie.
Extremely high relief and it’s an amazing coin.
The packaging and everything was amazing!!!
Fantastic! I'm glad you like it!
