Uncle Sam emerged as the personification of the United States government during the War of 1812, though the iconic image most Americans recognize today developed gradually over decades. The name supposedly originated with Samuel Wilson, a meat packer from Troy, New York, who supplied barrels of beef to American soldiers. The barrels were stamped “U.S.” for United States, but soldiers jokingly referred to the provisions as coming from “Uncle Sam.” Today, 2025 2 oz Samoa Silver Uncle Sam Shaped Coins are available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The visual representation of Uncle Sam evolved dramatically through political cartoonists and illustrators of the 19th century, reaching its definitive form in James Montgomery Flagg’s famous 1916 recruiting poster where a stern, white-bearded man in star-spangled attire points directly at the viewer alongside the words “I Want YOU for U.S. Army.”
All 2025 2 oz Samoa Silver Uncle Sam Shaped Coins are available here with individual packaging. The coins are struck in high relief with a shape that reflects historic representations of Uncle Sam. The coins have an antique polish throughout and come with a presentation case that includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
On the obverse 2025 Samoa Silver Uncle Sam Shaped Coins, you will find the Samoan coat of arms on the back of Uncle Sam’s figure, between his shoulder blades. The national seal consists of a shield that has the Southern Cross constellation and a palm tree set against stylized waves. A Christian cross features above the seal.
The reverse of 2025 2 oz Silver Uncle Sam Shaped Coins features the most common depiction of the figure. Traditionally, Uncle Sam is depicted with a tall, lean frame, white hair, piercing eyes, and patriotic red, white, and blue costume, including striped pants and a star-adorned top hat, Uncle Sam became an immediately recognizable symbol of American government authority and patriotic duty.
