Engelhard Corporation was established in 1902 by Charles W. Engelhard Sr. and developed into one of the leading names in the global precious metals industry. In the 1970s, Engelhard issued its first gold rounds featuring a design that would become famous among early private gold and silver buyers: The American Prospector. Now, 1977 1 oz Engelhard Prospector Gold Rounds are available online at JM Bullion.
Round Highlights:
The obverse design of the 1977 1 oz Prospector Gold Round highlights the Engelhard logo. This image shows a bold capital E at the center of a stylized globe, with the Engelhard name placed above, and the round’s identifying details, including the weight, purity, and metal content, are positioned below.
On the reverse of the Engelhard Prospector Gold Round, the traditional American prospector image appears. The figure is shown in a natural setting, crouched along a creek and panning for metals in a method widely used during the 19th-century gold and silver rush periods.
Popular culture typically portrays gold and silver prospectors as grizzled, bearded men in worn clothing, carrying pickaxes and gold pans while leading pack mules through rugged mountain terrain. These romanticized depictions, popularized through Western films, literature, and folklore, often emphasize their independence, optimism, and perseverance in the face of harsh conditions.
These 1977 1 oz Engelhard Prospector Gold Rounds are available in protective plastic flips. Engelhard’s Prospector design series was issued in gold through 1987, with the design becoming iconic within the precious metals industry. To this day, the stereotypical image of the lone prospector striking it rich remains an enduring symbol of the American Dream and frontier spirit.
