Item Description
 
The Sons of Liberty 2 oz Silver Round – Frontier Collection honors the legendary patriots who helped ignite the movement for American independence. Before the American Revolution formally began, local militias and secret organizations such as the Sons of Liberty played a critical role in organizing resistance against British rule and taxation.
 
Formed as a clandestine network of colonial patriots, the Sons of Liberty became famous for their opposition to British taxation policies and their rallying cry of “No taxation without representation.” Notable members included influential figures such as Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and Paul Revere, who often gathered secretly at the historic Liberty Tree in Boston to coordinate resistance against British authority.
 
Struck from 2 troy ounces of .999 fine silver, this impressive medal provides a substantial canvas for the detailed patriotic artwork honoring the revolutionary spirit of the early American colonies. The round measures approximately 39 mm in diameter and 6 mm in thickness, giving it a bold and substantial presence within any silver collection.
