What is the Silver Round?
"Silver rounds" are silver bullion products produced by private mints, as opposed to government-issued legal tender silver coins.
Silver rounds are not legal tender, but are traded based on their bullion value, as they are clearly stamped with the weight and purity of the silver.
GoldSilverJapan offers round products with relatively low premiums for customers who prioritize investment efficiency.

The appeal of design
Obverse
The obverse features a powerful profile of a Native American.
The design is based on the historic American coin "Buffalo Nickel," issued from 1913 to 1938. It was designed by renowned sculptor James Earle Fraser.
Fraser used several Indigenous people as models, blending their individual characteristics to create iconic portraits.
It is engraved with the word "LIBERTY," representing the ideals and spirit of America.
⸻
Back (reverse)
The reverse side depicts an American bison (buffalo) standing on the ground.
This bison is said to be modeled after a real bison known as "Black Diamond" that lived at New York's Central Park Zoo.
The bottom is engraved with:
• 1/4 TROY OZ
• .999 SILVER
This ensures a clear guarantee of weight and purity.

2. Flexible sales
You can sell only what you need, making asset management easy.
