One of the most popular silver rounds available in recent years have been those developed by the Reddit Silverbug community. The online community of silver enthusiasts have a rare impact on the precious metals industry, creating their own design themes and inspiring two different series to date. Today, the 1 oz Antique Silverbug Alyx the Fairy Silver Round is available in new condition from JM Bullion.
Round Highlights:
- Extremely limited mintage of just 2,500 total rounds!
- 3rd design in the popular Silverbug Silver Fairy Series!
- Ships in a plastic AirTite capsule to protect the coin’s condition and finish.
- Features a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
- Contains 1 troy oz of .999 pure silver.
- Obverse bears the image of Alyx the Fairy.
- Reverse includes an all-new approach to the scarab bug design.
- Alyx the Fairy design by artist Steve Ferris.
- Sculptings on both sides from Luigi Badia.
By now, the popularity of Silverbug Silver Rounds is such that the products don’t last long on the market. The Ariana (2014) and Archer (2015) designs in the Silverbug Fairy Series sold out quickly, and you can expect these 1 oz Antique Silverbug Alyx the Fairy Silver Rounds to follow suit, especially given the extremely low mintage.
Each of these new Alyx the Fairy Silver Rounds has an antique finish. With warm, subtle accents added to the round’s finish, these products have the look of age and circulation without ever being handle by the public before.
On the obverse side of the 1 oz Antique Silverbug Alyx the Fairy Silver Round you’ll notice the Alyx design from Steve Ferris, an acclaimed science-fiction and fantasy artist. Of particular interest is the mischievous look on Alyx’s face, hinting that she may break free of the chains containing her at any time.
The reverse design on the Alyx the Fairy Silver Round is the popular scarab bug from previous Silverbug Fairy Silver Rounds, with one twist. The design was hand-carved for this round, adding new relief and dimensions to the design. Each of these rounds has edge markings denoting a mintage number.
Osborne Mint now handles production of the Silverbug Silver Fairy rounds. Tracing its roots to 1835, Osborne Mint enjoys the distinction as America’s oldest operating private mint facility. Only the United States Mint predates Osborne in the US.
