Silver rounds come in two varieties: a plain edge or a gently reeded edge. Most silver rounds have a plain edge or a slightly reeded edge and sit flat but can slide when pushed to a depth of more than a few rounds. The SilverTowne Buffalo Stacker has a different design.
The stacked rim style is new to SilverTowne and is the result of a SilverTowne/A-Mark Precious Metals partnership that debuted in 2015. The rim is grooved and fitted all around for interlocking between rounds when stacking. Tap 10, 20, 50; they stack up without falling. If you are a home packer, safe depositor, or depository, this will affect the number of rounds you can stack in a space and the stability of the stack over time.
The design took off quickly. SilverTowne and A-Mark took the stackable rim format and extended it to many more designs after the incredible response from customers. The Buffalo is one of the earliest in the series and is still a favorite.
The obverse is set against a proof-like mirrored background, which helps to create a striking contrast between the image on the coin and the background, and features the Native American profile from the 1913 Buffalo Nickel, designed by James Earle Fraser. Above the portrait is the title "LIBERTY", carved in a groove around the edge.
Fraser did not depict one person in his portrait. Three chiefs stopped him in New York and then posed for him, but they were not singled out to be the subject of a portrait, but rather, their features were merged into what Fraser called a "type" image: Chief Iron Tail of the Sioux, Big Tree of the Kiowa, and Two Moons of the Cheyenne. Chief Iron Tail was the best reference for the head, Fraser said.
The bison is the same design on the back. The model was American bison Black Diamond, born at the Central Park Zoo in the early 20th century. He was sketched by Fraser there, and the final coin design was based on that sketch. The weight and purity of the round are stamped underneath the buffalo's hooves: "1 TROY OUNCE • 999 SILVER".
SilverTowne began in 1949 as a small coin shop located in a small town called Winchester, Indiana, and developed from a cigar box under a lunch counter to a multi-million dollar business. The Bliss and Nickel Presses were used for the minting facility, which began in 1973. Growth was so rapid that after 10 years, the original works became a constraint; by 1985, the works had moved to a larger building in Winchester, and it continues to be a fine silver bullion production today, manufacturing hundreds of thousands of ounces per month.
A-Mark Precious Metals bought a majority stake in the mint in 2016, and SilverTowne signed with Asahi Holdings on an exclusive silver feedstock deal. Both the retail coin shop and the website are still family-owned by the Hendricksons.
One of the best-known private-mint hallmarks for American bullion is the Prospector and Donkey logo that is printed on SilverTowne's bar goods. The mint mark "SilverTowne Mint" or "ST" is present on each of the stackable rounds and will tell any dealer where they came from.
Regular silver rounds are fine bullion to buy. However, if you are making a significant amount of rounds, monster boxes, tubes, or a safe shelf, then stackable rounds are an actual problem.
Plain-edged standard rounds will slide if more than a few are stacked. You have to use tubes to store them in, and it's okay for 20, but you don't have much flexibility in how you can arrange and present your stack. A round seat with a grooved rim, sitting on top and bottom of the round. The stack does not move. It is possible to go up, arrange by row, and pull rounds out without disturbing the rest.
The reeded rims of these rounds allow easy stacking of multiple rounds, making transportation and storage easier. Each round snaps into place with no problems and is not easily dislodged.
The stacker design does something that a round doesn't: It gives collectors the joy of the visual and physical experience of building a stack, which is part of what makes them love physical silver in the first place.
Generally, if price per ounce is the only factor, a generic Buffalo round from any mint will be the lowest possible premium. The design and interlocking rim engineering are slightly more expensive and are a minor premium on the SilverTowne stacker.
What you receive for that high price: a named mint (SilverTowne, which has been in business for 50+ years) as well as a proof-like finish and the stackable rim, which makes it easier to store the coins meaningfully. If you purchase more than just a few rounds, the storage benefit is worth your money in the way you keep and safeguard your rounds.
For one or two rounds, a standard Buffalo round will do if you're purchasing one or two as gifts or for a sample of the design. The stacker version is a worthwhile extra cost if stacking more regularly.
The most widely known 1 oz silver coins produced by the U.S. government are the American Silver Eagle coins. It is legal tender, backed by the U.S. government, and always worth $4–$10 over spot for the coin.
The SilverTowne Buffalo Stacker is not a Government of Canada issue, has no face value, and sells at a much lower premium. Same .999 fine silver. No Government guarantee, but acknowledged by all Bullion Dealers in the U.S.
Purchase the Buffalo Stacker if: you want more ounces per dollar, you are stacking frequently, and storage efficiency is of concern, or if you do not have an IRA in mind and are not concerned with a government-minted source.
Purchase the Silver Eagle when you: Desire worldwide maximum resale awareness; seek to construct a precious metals individual retirement account, particularly sovereign coins, or the government backing is significant to you, for estate or legal reasons.
The majority of experienced stackers possess both. The Buffalo Stacker is the volume layer, the Eagle is the liquid layer.
Given that they can be used for multiple precious metals IRAs, they can be valuable investment assets in each round. The IRS has a minimum .999 fine requirement for silver that's held in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA). This round is at .999 - it's at the threshold. The physical silver will need to be kept in a self-directed IRA custodian (call us if you need some assistance with finding one!)
Each round comes on a plastic flip. They come in tubes of 20 and are the standard storage format (20 rounds per tube) for 1 oz silver rounds. Place tubes in your safe or drop them off at a depository.
