1 oz Silver Bar - Hamilton Mint 50-Piece Set (World of Flight)

In 1975, the Hamilton Mint released a remarkable tribute to the history of aviation with the World of Flight collection. This comprehensive set consists of 50 individual silver bars, with each piece containing 1 troy ounce of 0.999 fine silver, bringing the total weight of the collection to 50 troy ounces. The set is accompanied by its original presentation box, an informative booklet, and a certificate of authenticity. The obverse of each bar features a detailed artistic rendering of a significant milestone in human flight. These designs span a vast chronological range, capturing everything from the ancient legend of Daedalus and Icarus to pioneering aircraft like the Wright Brothers' Flyer I, the Fokker D-VII, and iconic mid-century planes such as the Douglas DC-3, the Lockheed Constellation, and the Boeing 727. On the reverse, each bar provides an educational description of the specific aircraft or flight milestone depicted on the front. Alongside this historical narrative, the reverse side also displays the official weight and purity of the metal, making each bar a self-contained chronicle of aviation history.
