This silver bar preserves that legacy in a format designed for collectors and stackers alike.
Flag Side — South Carolina State Flag in Full Color
The obverse features a full-color reproduction of the South Carolina state flag across the entire surface of the bar. The design showcases a deep indigo-blue field with a white palmetto tree centered prominently and a white crescent positioned in the upper-left corner. The coloration faithfully reproduces the state's historic flag, including the distinctive indigo shade selected by Colonel William Moultrie for South Carolina troops during the Revolutionary War. The palmetto tree and crescent are carefully rendered with impressive detail despite the compact size of the silver bar.
Reverse — Scottsdale Mint Authentication
The reverse displays Scottsdale Mint's iconic Crowned Lion hallmark in vertical orientation along the right side of the bar.To the left are inscriptions identifying the mint along with the bar's weight and purity: "1 TROY OZ FINE SILVER .999."The Crowned Lion hallmark is one of the most recognizable private mint symbols in the U.S. precious metals industry and appears throughout Scottsdale Mint's Flag Series.
The Crescent Symbol
In 1775, Colonel William Moultrie was tasked with creating a flag for South Carolina's Revolutionary troops.
He selected an indigo-blue background matching the color of the soldiers' uniforms and added a white crescent in the upper corner.
Historians continue to debate whether the crescent represented the moon or the silver gorgets worn on soldiers' caps, but Moultrie's writings simply described it as "a crescent."
Regardless of its original meaning, the symbol has remained part of South Carolina's flag since 1775.
The Palmetto Tree and the Battle of Sullivan's Island
The famous palmetto tree was added following the Battle of Sullivan's Island on June 28, 1776. Fort Sullivan, which protected Charleston Harbor, was constructed from palmetto logs. During a British naval assault, the soft, fibrous wood absorbed cannonball impacts rather than splintering, helping the defenders withstand the attack. When the fort's flag was shot down during battle, Sergeant William Jasper famously retrieved it under enemy fire and raised it again, inspiring the defenders and becoming a South Carolina legend. South Carolina officially adopted its current flag design on January 28, 1861, combining the historic crescent with the palmetto tree symbol. In a 2001 survey conducted by the North American Vexillological Association, South Carolina's flag ranked among the top state flag designs in the United States.
