The 2 oz Bull and Bear Silver Round is a standard bullion finish round, minted by Golden State Mint in .999 fine silver. In one piece, it contains 2 troy ounces (62.2 g) of silver in a 1 oz round at an equal premium per ounce, and remains competitive with regular bullion pricing.The design is based on the bull/bear, the two icons that encapsulate the investment thinking of the financial markets, but here in physical form as a direct confrontation rather than abstract icons. This is a working round of bullion that has a particular visual argument. It's designed to be used by investors building up large collections of silver, as well as by collectors who prefer to have the symbolism of the market on the metal, not a generic eagle or shield design.
The Bull and Bear are on the obverse
The obverse depicts both animals, a bull and a bear, in the same frame that is in direct confrontation. Bull is facing forward with weight on it; the bear is standing firm. None of them is dominant in the composition, which is the point: the design represents the constant battle between the forces of the market going up and the forces going down.
The inscriptions are stamped directly onto the obverse face: "BULL & BEAR", “2 TROY OUNCES”, and “.999 FINE SILVER"—weight and purity verification is stamped on the coin; no separate assay card is needed.
Reverse — Golden State Mint Logo
The back has a pattern of the Golden State Mint hallmark repeated throughout the field. The repeating format is a conscious production decision: it is a repetition of authenticity that makes counterfeiting difficult and allows the reverse to have a clean, structured appearance that maintains the focus on the obverse design.
Today, the phrase bull market and bear market are commonplace in the financial world, but they have their roots in London in the 18th century, on the coffeehouses and trading floors that surrounded Exchange Alley, where the first organized securities trading in England was established.The bear was first. Short sellers, who sold shares that they did not own and who were betting on the price falling, were referred to in early 18th-century trading as "bearskin jobbers," which was taken from the saying of selling the bear's skin before catching the bear. By the time of the South Sea Bubble of 1720, a famous financial bubble, the use of the word "bear" to describe a falling market and the profits made by those who sell when the prices fall were well known.The bull became the ultimate companion—the animal whose game is similar to that of the bull markets. A bull thrusts up while a bear's claws are extended downwards. When an investor saw a particular animal, his/her price direction was the same as the direction of the animal. Towards the middle of the 18th century, both terms were used regularly in combination, and they've become common terms in market discourse ever since.The decision to put a bull and a bear side by side in the center of a silver round has a historical significance. These are not just random financial symbols—they are the most succinct representation of over 300 years of market psychology, in the form of two animals.
