History

President Theodore Roosevelt commissioned Augustus Saint Gaudens to design a fresh new design to replace the Liberty Head. Roosevelt made it very well known that he believed the Liberty Head was unattractive. Production of the new Saint Gaudens Double Eagles began with the 1907 release. The new design was immediately received with global accolades of its fineness and graceful beauty. Production continued through its final minting in 1933.

Somewhat ironically, it was another President Roosevelt (Franklin D.), who forced the cessation of minting gold coinage in the United States. Further, under his direction, it was made illegal for private U.S. citizens to retain ownership of gold coinage, forcing confiscation of their holdings. None of the 1933 mintage was ever released.

Why Silver Rounds?

Silver bullion rounds have long been a sound choice for precious metals investors. Due to lower production costs, they generally have a smaller premium as compared to the same troy oz of silver coins. This, of course, results in less expensive upfront investment costs.

Silver rounds are available in many highly recognizable designs, making them very appreciated gift items. With an ever-growing selection, you will always find just the right match for every birthday, anniversary, and Thank-You opportunity. They are also a more budget-sensitive way to introduce your children to a life-long appreciation of coin collecting.
