1 oz Silver Round US Navy Because of the Brave

The history of the U.S. Navy dates back to the American Revolutionary War. On October 13, 1775, the Continental Congress formed the Continental Navy to challenge British dominance at sea. From those early beginnings, the United States Navy has grown into the world’s leading naval force and a vital component of the United States Armed Forces.

In its early years, the Navy achieved important victories by capturing British vessels and supporting American troops in engagements such as the Battle of Valcour Island and the Battle of Flamborough Head. Following the Revolutionary War, financial limitations led to the Navy’s temporary disbandment. However, increasing threats from piracy and tensions with the Barbary States of North Africa highlighted the necessity of a strong maritime force. In response, the Navy commissioned several powerful frigates, including the renowned USS Constitution, to safeguard American sailors and commerce abroad.

The 1 oz United States Armed Forces Navy Silver Rounds offered here are newly struck by SilverTowne Mint.
