Silver Rounds - Anyone familiar with ... 0

[Zebo]

Anyone familiar with the below silver round or know who produced it? They were minted as part of the 1970/80s movement against fiat currency. Tupper Saussy, author of The Mircle on Main Street - Saving yourself and America from Financial Ruin, was deeply involved in the movement. Tupper's heirs, and Tupper's former attorney, have a number of these silver rounds, but did not know - or would not say where they came from or who minted them. It is possible that Spencer Judd may have had something to do with it as he has written about Roger Sherman's A Caveat Against Injustice Or an Inquiry Into the Evils of a Fluctating Medium of Exchange.

There is a very interesting story here, but I only know a little of it. Nice coins - proofs came in nice wooden presentation boxes. The photos below stink, as they were taken in the wrong light with a crummy camera.

You might contact MIke Sprouse of River City Coins in Cape Girardeau, MO. He is a big seller of silver rounds.

Or, the historian of the International Association of Silver Art Collectors is a nice gentleman by the name of Ed Lantz. He can be contacted by email at: edlantz2001@yahoo.com

Thanks. Bob - I've contacted both. Hopefully one will have some insight. These are nicely done rounds with a great story.

Bumping this one up so Mike Sprouse can view the coin if he'd like.

also  Ed Lantz is really nice, but is unfamiliar with the coin.
