2021 Chad Blackbeard the Pirate 2 oz Silver Coin

This collectible is a tribute to Blackbeard’s formidable appearance. He stands aboard his ship, the Queen Anne’s Revenge, marked by the barrel of overflowing skulls behind him. The sling across his chest houses the many pistols that hang within arm’s reach alongside a threatening belt of daggers hanging from his waist. Blackbeard holds his knife readily, his menacing form true to life. Against an up-close of his severe expression, the detail of his infamous beard is sharp and vivid with the use of precise engraving that gives an elaborate feel to each strand.

Through the use of a new minting technique called “Bi-Metal Reverse”, it achieves a remarkable weight and 80mm diameter size – making it double the size of a regular 2 oz collectible. By combining 2 oz of 999 pure silver as a base with a top layer of 11.5 oz of copper, the result is a super ultra-high relief that brings out every detail to maximum effect, then finished with antiqued silver to conclude.
