Priced at .999 fine silver, the Maryland State Flag Silver Bar is a precision struck bullion bar by Scottsdale Mint that is embellished with the full color reproduction of the celebrated state flag of Maryland, the most heraldically distinguished state flag in the United States and the only one that is entirely based on English heraldry.
The design of Maryland's flag is a combination of the family coats of arms of the Calvert and Crossland families, the founding ones of the Maryland colony, and dates back to the 17th century, over 100 years before the United States of America gained independence.
This bar combines the historical resonance with the renowned .999 fineness of Scottsdale Mint's silver and the Crowned Lion hallmark, making it as significant as a collectible as it is as solid as a bullion purchase.
The Obverse Profile — Maryland State Flag in Full Color
On the obverse is a color full reproduction of the Maryland State Flag, which is divided into four equal quadrants in the heraldic tradition:
The outcome was one of the most colourful flags in American vexillology, bold and symmetrical and with a long heritage of English heraldic style.
The Reverse Profile — Scottsdale Mint Authentication
The reverse is blank, while the reverse includes Scottsdale Mint's Crowned Lion hallmark on the right side in a vertical position, on the left side is the inscription “SCOTTSDALE MINT”, and on the bottom is the weight/purity, “1 TROY OZ FINE SILVER .999.”
The Maryland flag's design is a direct descendant of George Calvert (c. 1580-1632), the first Lord Baltimore, who was given a royal charter to create a colony in North America. Calvert's coat of arms was a blend of two family lines: the gold-and-black Calvert from his father's and the red-and-white Crossland from his mother's.
During the majority of Maryland's historic years, the Calvert gold-and-black colors were the only symbol of the colony. Maryland's Confederate troops used the Crossland red-and-white as their symbol on the Civil War. First seen in 1876 (eleven years after the war) the combined four-quadrant flag was interpreted as a symbol of post-war reunification and both heraldic traditions came together as a gesture of healing between Maryland citizens who had fought on opposing sides.
This became the official design of the state flag by the Maryland General Assembly in 1904. It was the first state flag designed entirely from English heraldry, and the flag design has not changed since formal adoption, making it one of the oldest continuous flag designs in America.
Scottsdale Mint's hallmark, The Crowned Lion, is one of the most recognizable private-mint marks in the U.S. bullion secondary market, and is ISO 9001 certified, located in Scottsdale, Arizona. The precision colourisation process uses precision colour directly on the bar surface, with a durability to be collected and displayed for a long time.
