Ship Silver Coins, Rounds and Bars for #piratesunday

One of the Canadian commemorative series that @ronaldoavelino is currently showing in his blog have ship designs. @stokjockey showed Hamilton Mint's Connecticut ingot with a ship design yesterday. And our friend @georgemales, requested to see the few ship coins I may have.

So I thought I'd show ship silver coins, rounds and bars... today being #piratesunday.

Portuguese Silver Escudo Coins

1932- 10 Escudos, 1934- 5 Escudos, and 1946- 2 1/2 Escudos

The Portuguese escudo is the currency of Portugal prior to the introduction of the euro on 1 January 1999 and its removal from circulation on 28 February 2002. The escudo was subdivided into 100 centavos. The word escudo means "shield".

In 1932, silver coins were introduced for ​2 1⁄2, 5 and 10 escudos. The ​2 1⁄2 and 5 escudos were minted until 1951, with the 10 escudos minted until 1955 with a reduced silver content.

And my favorite ship coin is...

1949 Canada Silver Dollar Newfoundland Ship

0.6 troy oz silver coin

The design of 1949 Canada Dollar coin commemorates Newfoundland becoming a province of the Dominion of Canada on December 31, 1949.

On the reverse of the coin is The Matthew, the ship in which John Cabot is thought to have discovered Newfoundland. King George VI appears on the obverse with the Latin inscription "GEORGIVS VI DEI GRATIA REX"

1886-1986 LIBERTY Ellis Island/Twin Towers & Sailing Ships Art Round

1975 Whaling Ship Art Bar, 1 ozt .999 Fine Silver

Serialized 24KT EGP silver bar and silver bar by Hamilton Mint

In addition to the name of the series which is America The Beautiful, 1 troy oz, .999 F.S. 75 mint year and HM for Hamilton Mint, the back of the bar has the inscriptions written within the outline of the US continent: - "WHALING SHIP - At a center of the vortex of sea, salt, and sperm oil, the early American whaling ship glides across the wind-swept oceans of time", which describes the image in the front of the bar.

The Privateer Series 2 oz Rounds

Produced by the Elemental Mint

There is a ship depicted on each individual round of this series . Can you name all the rounds on the Privateer Series?

There are numerous coins, rounds and bars that have ships as their theme. I may have a couple more pieces to show on another day.

I hope you enjoyed this article. I post every day, so I will see you again soon! @silversaver888
