Throughout American history, the US Army has played a vital role in the nation’s growth, expansion, and development. The United States Army traces its roots back to the Continental Army, established on June 14, 1775, during the American Revolutionary War. General George Washington served as its commander-in-chief, leading the army to victory against the British.
Following independence, the U.S. Army played a crucial role in securing and expanding the nation’s territory, engaging in conflicts such as the War of 1812, the Mexican-American War, and various conflicts with Native American tribes during westward expansion.
The obverse of the 1 oz Army Silver Medal depicts two American soldiers spanning the nation’s history. In the background, a soldier of the Continental Army stands at the ready with his rifle raised as he takes aim. In the foreground, a modern US Army soldier advances with her rifle at the ready.
On the reverse of US Mint Army Silver Medals, you will find the seven core values of the US Army listed alongside the flag of the US Army. The streamers attached to the flag highlight the names of several major battles the US Army has fought, from Lexington and Appomattox during the American Revolution and the Civil War to Luzon during World War II and the Tet Counteroffensive of the Vietnam War.
These 1 oz US Mint Army Silver Medals are available to you inside plastic capsules. Each medal is packaged in a blue US Mint presentation box and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from the mint.
