Modern Americans know Lady Liberty as a symbol of American liberty and independence, while Uncle Sam stands out as a unifying force that calls America to arms when freedom and liberty are in danger around the world. During the American Revolution, American colonists turned to Columbia as a symbol of liberty and idealism for the nation they were fighting to forge. Now, 10 oz American Reserve Columbia Goddess Silver Bars are available from JM Bullion.

Columbia’s popularity grew alongside the American push for independence. She began appearing in poetry and artwork during the 1760s and 1770s, coinciding with rising tensions between the American colonies and Great Britain. As revolutionary sentiments grew, Columbia became a symbol of the emerging American identity, distinct from British rule. Her image was used to rally support for the revolutionary cause and to represent the ideals of the new nation.

Artists typically portrayed Columbia as a young, beautiful woman in flowing classical robes, often white, to evoke associations with ancient Greek and Roman republics. She was frequently depicted wearing or holding symbols of American liberty and democracy.

On the obverse of 10 oz Columbia Goddess Silver Bars is the logo for the American Reserve brand. This logo consists of the interlaced initials of the brand, AR, set against a rock-like background texture. The identifying hallmarks are included on this side, along with crossed pick axes and the Asahi Refining logo.

The reverse side of the American Reserve Columbia Goddess Silver Bar comes with a depiction of the female allegory by Joel Iskowitz. The front-facing figure of Columbia is shown with the American flag in her left hand and a torch held high in her right hand. The field includes radiant rays of light emanating from the torch as she gazes up at it.

These 10 oz American Reserve Columbia Goddess Silver Bars come with protective plastic. Each bar was produced by Asahi Refining USA using American sourced, American refined, and American minted silver. Asahi sourced the raw silver in the US, refined it to fine grain silver in Utah, and minted it into these 10 oz bars in Florida.
