{{/presale}}The obverse features a horse and rider galloping across the rugged terrain. This round pays homage to the Pony Express, a horse-and-rider relay system briefly used to deliver mail cross-country in the mid-1800s. The horse is equipped with a specially designed saddlebag used to store and carry mail, known as a mochila. The inscription “PONY EXPRESS” is seen at the bottom.
The reverse features the classic scene of a sleepy Wild West town, complete with a saloon and hotel. Horses are seen hitched out front. An inscription reads “ONE OUNCE .999 FINE COPPER.”
Provident’s well-loved original series–featuring our most popular silver round ever–has recently been redesigned. Each round and bar in the Prospector series is made from investment-grade silver at an ISO 9001 facility, making these items eligible for a precious metals IRA. Additionally, the privately-minted Prospector products carry a lower premium than many sovereign-minted products. This allows savvy investors to maximize their buying power.
The Prospector 1 oz Copper Round is the inaugural and flagship product of the Prospector series. This series will expand with four new Wild West designs each year. The Prospector will remain for sale in perpetuity, while subsequent releases–like the Gunslinger and the Pony Express–will be available for a limited time only.
Individual rounds ship in plastic flips. Multiples of 20 ship in plastic tubes and multiples of 500 ship in a strapped monster box. Add an Air-Tite to your order to protect your rounds.
