The 5 Oz Fort Moultrie Silver Coin: America the Beautiful

The Fort Moultrie quarter was designed to capture a bit of the fort’s early history. The reverse features Colonial Sergeant William Jasper waving the regimental flag, warning his compatriots of the impending British attack. Ships, British Men of War, are sailing into view in the background. The words “South Carolina”, “E Pluribus Unum”, “Fort Moultrie” and the 2016 date are stamped in a perimeter surround the image.

The obverse carries the famous portrait of George Washington which has graced US quarters for decades. The image was originally designed by John Flanagan. This side carries the inscriptions “United States of America”, “In God We Trust”, “Liberty” and “Quarter Dollar”.

The silver weight and purity – “.999 Fine Silver 5.0 Ounce” are stamped on the coin’s edge which is smooth. This is in place of the reeded edge that most bullion coins feature.

Viewpoint: PNG warns bullion buyers of risks

Editor’s Note: The following is a warning issued by the Professional Numismatists Guild. Following the recent fraud charges filed by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission against a California gold seller, a trade group composed of veteran precious metals experts is urging investors to take three important steps before making any purchases of gold, silver or platinum ​bullion ​coins or ingots. “To avoid paying too much when you buy or receiving too little when you sell, and to avoid potential scams, investors absolutely must know the credentials of the bullion dealer, not just what the dealer may tout on TV advertisements or with a fancy website,” cautioned Barry Stuppler of Woodland Hills, California, President of the nonprofit Professional Numismatists Guild ( www.PNGdealers.org ). “If you don’t know gold, you’d better know your gold dealer,” Stuppler emphasized. The Temecula, California-based Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) was founded in 1955. Two years ago, PNG establ...
