The design of the "Dead Men Tell No Tales" silver round was motivated by the Caribbean's heyday of piracy in the 1600s and 1700s. Pirates frequently attacked military and commercial vessels, plundering their cargo with homemade weapons like the firebomb, an early type of hand grenade.
Legend has it that pirates would say "dead men tell no tales" to indicate that the best method to keep someone quiet was to murder them. The phrase implies that secrets cannot be revealed by the deceased.
Key Features
An intimidating skeleton pirate is shown in this enthralling round with a firebomb, an early version of a hand grenade, as well as his go-to weapons, a sword and a pistol. These storied swashbucklers' mysterious past, daring deeds, and code of silence are immortalized along with their swashbuckling ways.
