The pirate brand has long been tied to the skull and crossbones—the Jolly Roger—as a symbol of terror on the high seas. The ominous design is a magnificent display of how the need for branding drove pirates to adopt a version of this particular symbol to facilitate their intent to plunder. MK Barz and Bullion produced this bar to highlight the longstanding legacy of pirates in the open sea. Today, JM Bullion offers you the 3.5 oz MK Barz Black Jack Silver Skull!
Bar Highlights:
Piracy has likely long been a feature of the open seas, following the earliest trade routes of the Aegean and Mediterranean. Cilicians were active in these regions and tolerated by the Roman Empire for the slaves they provided and were only reigned in when they gained such a presence as to become a threat to the Empire’s grain supply in 67 BCE. The Senate approved "a comprehensive and systematic strategy and an astutely humane policy to the vanquished" to eliminate the Cilicians within a matter of months. Despite this historical legacy, the familiar skull and crossbones that many of us associate with piracy is a recent development, emerging in the late 17th century with the rise of the pirates of the Caribbean.
For the obverse field of the 3.5 oz MK Barz Black Jack Silver Skull, you will find the engraving of a skeleton head. The bar was sculpted to look like the skull of a pirate. Its eyes are gorged out as it grins at the viewer. It wears a scarf over its head that drops down to the back of its shoulders. There are no inscriptions on this side of the bar.
For the reverse field of the 3.5 oz MK Barz Black Jack Silver Skull, you will find inscriptions that include “MK Barz,” “.999 +FS,” and “3.5 Troy oz.”
