The flag of the United States of America goes by many names. Over the course of American history, it has been referred to as the Star-Spangled Banner, Old Glory, the Red, White, and Blue, and the Stars and Stripes. By whatever name you call it, the American flag is a symbol of freedom, Liberty, and democracy known around the world.
The obverse features of 5 oz American Flag Silver Bars include an accurate depiction of the modern American flag. True to the form of the American flag used for more than two centuries, the design has alternating red-and-white stripes arranged horizontally on the primary field. These stripes represent the 13 colonies of British North America that broke with the United Kingdom to form the United States of America. The blue field in the upper left includes white stars, with the modern design boasting 50 stars in total, one for each state in the Union. Though there is no colorization on these bars, the design is nonetheless accurate.
In order to create visual contrast between the stripes within the design field, SilverTowne uses alternating polished and mirrored fields to help the stripes stand out from one to the next. The modern design of the American flag was created in 1958 by Robert G. Heft, who completed his flag design as part of a class project.
