The U.S. Navy Blue Angels were established in 1946 by Admiral Chester Nimitz, who recognized the need for a flight demonstration team to showcase naval aviation capabilities. Initially called the “Navy Flight Exhibition Team,” the squadron was formed at Naval Air Station Jacksonville, Florida, under the command of Lieutenant Commander Roy “Butch” Voris, who handpicked the original pilots from experienced combat veterans. Right now, 1/10 oz United States Navy Blue Angels Silver Rounds are available from JM Bullion.
Round Highlights:
Each 1/10 oz United States Navy Blue Angels Silver Round comes with a protective plastic flip. These beautiful silver rounds honor the aviators, maintainers, and aircraft showcased by the United States Navy’s Blue Angels. Since 2021, the Blue Angels have flown the latest-generation F/A-18 Super Hornet as their primary aircraft.
The F/A-18 Super Hornet is a modified aircraft stripped of combat systems and radar equipment, painted in the iconic blue and gold livery, and equipped with special smoke systems for aerial displays. The Super Hornets provide enhanced performance capabilities while maintaining the precision required for the team’s intricate formation flying.
The obverse of United States Navy Blue Angels Silver Rounds comes with the patch worn by aviators in the Blue Angels’ squadron. The shield in the patch is split in half on a 45-degree angle with four F/A-18s in the upper right and the seal of the Naval Air Training Command in the lower left.
On the reverse of 1/10 oz US Navy Blue Angels Silver Rounds, you’ll find four Super Hornets in formation during a Blue Angels’ performance. Blue Angels pilots must be active-duty Navy or Marine Corps tactical jet pilots with a minimum of 1,250 flight hours and exceptional flying records. Candidates undergo rigorous psychological evaluations, possess outstanding leadership qualities, and demonstrate precise flying skills with no major flight violations.
