It took grit, determination, and a steady hand to be a rider of the Pony Express. Racing across the untamed American West, these individual riders would cover 10 miles between stations at a breakneck clip to try and cut down the time it took to move mail and small parcels between the expanding territory in California and the East Coast. The brave spirit of these Pony Express riders is captured in a new series of cast silver bars from SilverTowne. Right now, 10 oz SilverTowne Pony Silver Bars are available to purchase online from JM Bullion.

Each 10 oz SilverTowne Pony Silver Bar available here today at JM Bullion represents the continuation of a large cast silver bar series. The bars offered here are brand new to the collection and come with incuse struck design elements and hallmarks. The cast bars will arrive inside of a standard shipping box with the bar inside a plastic sleeve.
SilverTowne launched the Pony Express Silver Bars in early 2021 with a massive 100 oz silver bar and later introduced a 1 Kilo silver bar. All of the cast silver bars in this collection have the same Pony Express-themed design on the obverse. The bars are also designed the same in terms of a horizontal, left-to-right design layout.
The obverse of the new 10 oz SilverTowne Pony Silver bears the only inscriptions you will find on the bars. There is a rider of the Pony Express riding as fast as he can on the left side of the design field. On the right side, you will find the weight, metal content, and purity stamped into the bar. The lower-left field includes the SilverTowne mint mark below the feet of the horse. On the reverse side of these bars, the mint has left a blank field. However, you are bound to notice textures, striations, and other lines that form naturally as a result of the cooling and settling of silver during the casting process.
SilverTowne is one of America’s leading private mints. What started as a small coin and antique shop in 1949 has grown into one of the nation’s most respected mints offering a range of cast silver bars, minted silver ingots, silver rounds, and copper products.

“I bought the Pony Express 10 oz silver bar for the looks, but when I got it, I discovered a new way to take pleasure out of it. The finish is not glossy, but rather an incredibly smooth brushed finish. It’s not a matte finish. This bar’s finish is so smooth, it feels like velvet, or a baby’s bottom. I feel that I have found a new activity. I just hold it and flip it around in my hand and rub the surface compulsorily to extract more pleasure from it. And the fact That It Is Constitutional Money adds intellectual satisfaction also.”
