2012 Silver 5 oz America The Beautiful Chaco Culture NP New Mexico

This Chaco Culture National Historical Park 5 oz Silver ATB is more than a bullion coin, it's a collector piece with a specific, fixed mintage and a reverse design drawn from a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Chaco Canyon preserves the largest pre-Columbian structures north of Mexico and remains an active archaeological site still under study today. As with all ATB coin releases, the site represented has been formally designated as a National treasure, not a marketing description, but a legal classification under the America's Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008.

These .999 fine silver coins arrive from the U.S. Mint in sealed monster boxes, 10 rolls of 10 coins each (100 coins per box). BOLD offers them individually as singles or in volume. For more background on the site itself, the National Park Service's Chaco Culture page is worth a read before your coins arrive.

Highlights

  • Contains 5 Troy oz of .999 fine silver
  • Largest silver bullion coins ever issued by the United States Mint
  • Design duplicates (though enlarged) each America the Beautiful Quarters series design
  • Obverse: George Washington portrait, restored version of John Flanagan's 1932 quarter design
  • Reverse: Ancestral Pueblo stonework, built 850–1250 A.D., Designer: Donna Weaver / Phebe Hemphill
  • Edge: Smooth, inscribed ".999 Fine Silver 5.0 Ounce"

History

The America's Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-456) authorized the 5 oz .999 fine silver ATB coins. The ATB bullion coins are three inches in diameter, have a .999 fine silver content and a nominal value of 25 cents, which is the first brand of three-inch, .999 fine silver U.S. bullion coins ever struck by the United States Mint. Each coin features the edge including Fineness and Weight.

Coins are released in the order of the establishment of each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Northern Mariana Islands as national parks or sites. Chaco Canyon National Monument became a National Monument in 1907, and the area became the Chaco Culture National Historical Park in 1987, and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.

Investment Grade Bullion

ATB silver bullion coins are guaranteed to be investment grade by the U.S. government, and contain a silver content of up to 90% pure. They are legal tender, but the face value of 1/4 dollar is symbolic. The coins are sold at the current spot price for silver plus a premium that is based on the costs to which the U.S. Mint produces the coins and the demand for the coins by collectors, not an arbitrary amount, but a specific amount as shown on this page and updated in real-time.

With our BOLD Pricing Guarantee, we will offer the same price for the same coin, same condition as any competitor that has published the price. If you see the 2012 Chaco Culture ATB elsewhere at a lower price, please provide us with the link and we'll give you a better price. Silver is the most readily available entry level into precious metals bullion and these coins offer a great option for those new to the metals market and veterans of the stack.

Resale & Liquidity

A question frequently asked regarding 5 oz ATB coins is, “Can I easily sell these back?” Yes, that's right, and we can say that with certainty because we offer a buy-back service for this series. We only carry products that we would want to purchase for our own personal use at BOLD Precious Metals. The 2012 Chaco Culture ATB is a fixed mintage, .999 fine silver coin designed around a World Heritage Site in the United States designated by UNESCO.All of these make for secondary market coin demand including a fixed mintage, .999 fine silver, and a design based around a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the United States. We have a simple buy-back process when you are ready to cash out – competitive pricing, quick payout, easy process. No pressure to keep the time longer than it's worth.

Distinguishing Bullion and Uncirculated

There are three ways to tell the difference between Bullion and Uncirculated ATBs:

  • In God We Trust - UnCirculated Coins have a "P" (Philadelphia Mint) and Bullion Coins do not have a mintmark.
  • Finish: The finish of the coins is ‘uncirculated' from a matte surface (vapor-blasted) or a brilliantly shiny surface (bullion).
  • Packaging: Uncirculated coins are packaged in a plastic capsule, a certificate of authenticity from the Mint and a box from the Mint. Bullion coins are shipped in sealed monster boxes.

Why We Carry This Coin

As a child I began purchasing coins on my grandfather's kitchen table, and the rest is history. It's like the ATB series; coins that attach to a place and a moment, not a metal weight. The Chaco Culture topic is one that I would want to have. All of these are UNESCO World Heritage Sites, fixed mintage and a design on the reverse most buyers are not familiar enough with to request by name. This is the type of stock that quietly beats the run-of-the-mill candidate. We keep it because we know and trust that it will be a valuable addition to our lives.
