Title:
U.S. Assay Office San Francisco Silver Trade Unit 1981 One Troy Ounce Round
Description:
Obverse features a heraldic American eagle in flight, wings fully spread, carrying an unfurled United States flag on a staff topped by an eagle finial. The eagle and flag are flanked on both sides by laurel branches. Around the upper rim is the inscription ”ONE TROY OUNCE” with the weight given as ”31.1 GRAMS” beneath it. Along the lower rim are the inscriptions ”.999 FINE SILVER” and ”SILVER TRADE UNIT,” clearly identifying the piece as a one‑troy‑ounce bullion round of high‑purity silver.
Reverse bears a large central legend in multiple lines reading ”FORMERLY STORED AT U.S. ASSAY OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO” with a small mint‑style crescent hallmark below. Encircling the design along the outer rim is the inscription ”MINTED FROM U.S. STRATEGIC STOCKPILE SILVER,” referring to silver that originally formed part of the U.S. government’s strategic stockpile. At the bottom, separated by small stars, appears the date ”1981,” indicating the year this private bullion round was produced. The entire piece is housed in a clear plastic capsule and shows light toning typical of circulated or stored silver bullion.
This is a privately minted one‑ounce .999 fine silver trade unit round associated with the U.S. Assay Office in San Francisco and explicitly dated 1981, produced from silver released from the U.S. Strategic Stockpile. It is a bullion collectible rather than legal‑tender currency.
