250th ANNIVERSARY OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
1776 – 2026
1/2 oz FINE SILVER 9999
Description:
presents a striking composition with the Statue of Liberty standing tall at the right, highlighted with elegance, holding her torch aloft and a tablet in her left hand, symbolizing enlightenment and the rule of law. Behind it rises the domed building of the United States Capitol, rendered with architectural precision, including columns, layered tiers, and the prominent cupola and an iconic symbol of American independence, the United States Liberty Bell with hairline crack, the fragility of the Bell echoing the fragility of a young nation at its founding. In the background a close-up portrait of a majestic American bald eagle with a sharp hooked beak, piercing eye, and finely textured feathers surrounded by stars representing strength, freedom and national identity accompanied by the inscriptions “250th ANNIVERSARY OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE” follows the upper border. The dates “1776 – 2026” appear below, together with the metal specification “1/2 oz FINE SILVER 9999.”
