Once a symbol of the American Great Plains, the North American Plains bison roamed the region in massive herds of up to 60 million. These incredible creatures shaped the grasslands and played a critical role in the lives of Indigenous peoples, providing essential resources and inspiring cultural traditions. The 1 oz Proof Silver Domed Stackable Plains Bison Round celebrates this iconic animal and is available now from BGASC.

Highlights:

• Arrives inside a protective plastic capsule!
• Ultra high-relief strike!
• Domed obverse and concave reverse!
• Contains 1 Troy oz of .999 pure silver.
• Both sides feature the front-facing effigy of an American bison.

Each 1 oz Proof Silver Domed Stackable Plains Bison Round comes individually packaged in a protective capsule. The obverse and reverse sides both feature the image of a Plains bison. On the obverse, the design is domed with an ultra-high-relief strike. On the reverse, the same image is struck in an incuse style, creating a concave surface that adds stackability to the design.

Obverse

The obverse of the Proof Silver Domed Stackable Plains Bison Round showcases a front-facing effigy of the Plains bison. This domed design highlights the impressive stature of the bison and the inscriptions identify the rounds weight and purity.

Reverse

On the reverse, the same design is featured in an incuse strike that creates a recessed effect. This side also includes an O/M mint mark and complements the obverse design while offering stackable functionality.

History

For over 12,000 years, bison were central to life on the Great Plains, serving as a source of food, tools, and spiritual meaning for Indigenous peoples. However, the arrival of European settlers led to a dramatic decline in bison populations during the 1800s, impacting ecosystems and communities across the region.
