When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, the United States was thrown into conflict – a conflict we didn’t ask for, but met with the full might of the USA and its citizens. Throughout history, artists contributed their talents making war posters extolling the virtue of volunteering for the armed forces and reminding the populace to stay alert, conserve resources and support the war effort. This collection features some of the most popular war posters on an oversized ingot, allowing the true impact of the message to shine on this larger .999 fine silver “canvas”.

The brilliantly colored minutemen from 1778 stand in the background, silently supporting their 1943 brothers-at-arms. Fighting for our freedom, immortalized on a 2 ounce, .999 fine silver "canvas".
The 3rd release in the Fight For Freedom's Sake features a vivid patriotic backdrop of vibrant blues and the American flag. Created in the artistic style of WW II propaganda war posters, this Americana art style is highly collectible. The polished die struck image contrasts with the full-color image in the background and makes Uncle Sam really "pop". One interesting fact - this obverse is completely hand engraved.
The common reverse shows the grittiness of the fight with soldiers advancing through gunfire and smoke while flanked by tanks and aircraft.
