One of the most iconic American coin designs of the 20^th century came from James Earle Fraser. In 1913, Fraser created one of the first coin designs for American currency honoring indigenous cultures in the United States. This design, though iconic, is also a fitting debut visual for the United Snakes of America Series, a collection of silver rounds highlighting the decay and deceit of the federal government. Today, 1 oz Indian Skull Silver Rounds are available to you online at JM Bullion.

The United Snakes of America Series calls attention to the moral decay and deceit of the federal government. Fraser’s design for the Buffalo Nickel, which is modified in the obverse of this round, was approved at the end of President William Howard Taft’s administration. During President William Howard Taft’s administration (1909-1913), there were several notable scandals that had an impact on his presidency, making this a fitting start for the silver round series.

All of these 1 oz Indian Skull Silver Rounds are available to you as new items from the mint. The rounds are housed individually in plastic flips, in acrylic tubes of 20 rounds, or in boxes of 500 rounds.

Obverse visuals on the Indian Skull Silver Round include a decaying image of an indigenous leader in right-profile relief. Based on Fraser’s bust of an indigenous figure, this design shows the hair and feathers still, but the flesh has rotted away to reveal the skull.

Reverse design elements on 1 oz Indian Skull Silver Rounds in the United Snakes of America Series include the series collection. The US national shield is at the center, with a larger snake rising from the center and several snake heads. The snakes are meant to reflect a sinister twist on the American bald eagle that typically features in the design.
