The 2oz Privateer – Ship in the Storm High Relief Silver Round is one of the most visually striking releases in the Privateer Series, produced by the Elemetal Mint (USA). Struck from 2 troy ounces (62.2 grams) of .999 fine silver, this round combines substantial bullion weight with dramatic, high-relief artistry.
Part of a limited series issued between 2015 and 2017, the Privateer collection explores the world of seafaring privateers and pirates. The “Ship in the Storm” design captures the intensity and danger of life at sea, making it one of the most popular and recognisable designs in the series.
With production now ceased, these rounds are only available on the secondary market, adding a level of scarcity and collectible appeal alongside their intrinsic silver value.
Obverse (Series Side):
The obverse features the iconic Privateer skull set within a ship’s wheel, wrapped in rope. Above the design is the inscription “NO PREY NO PAY,” a traditional pirate motto, while the weight and purity are inscribed below.
Reverse (Featured Design):
The reverse showcases a pirate ship battling towering waves under a stormy sky, with clouds and moonlight adding to the dramatic atmosphere. The high-relief strike enhances the depth of the waves, sails, and textures, creating a powerful three-dimensional effect.
