The 1 oz Silver Pieces of Eight Round focuses on the consequences of the exploitation of precious metals and other natural resources. Among these devastations was the toll of Spanish Conquistadors on indigenous tribes in Central and South America. These soldiers and explorers brought war and disease which devasted various empires, including the Aztec Empire. Although the Spanish were among the first to bring devastation to the land, various other countries soon followed.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 1 oz Silver Pieces of Eight Round, you will find a detailed design with various symbols. In the center of the design field is a skull surrounded by eight swords in the background. Each sword represents countries that uprooted indigenous life in the Americas, including Spain, England, France, Portugal, Denmark, Belgium, Netherlands, and the United States.
Reverse
The reverse of the 1 oz Silver Pieces of Eight Round is the original design found in the Silver Shield Collection. This image is of a sun with eight points and flames ignited from the suns center. Silver Shield is engraved along the border.
