Each 1 oz Swiss of America Silver Round is packaged in a protective plastic flip. These silver rounds were originally struck by Draper Mint during the 1970s, offering a glimpse into a past era of silver production. Draper Mint released several designs inspired by the Swiss Alps, with subtle differences between them and a variety of obverse designs to explore.

Draper Mint was established in Draper, Utah, in 1960 by Loyd Hewitt, a World War II veteran who later studied geophysics at the University of Utah. Hewitt went on to survey mineral deposits across North America before founding Draper Mint, where he produced silver rounds like the Swiss of America series.

The obverse of the Swiss of America Silver Round features inscriptions such as “SWISS OF AMERICA,” “999 FINE SILVER,” and “ONE OUNCE,” with a beaded border around the edge. On the reverse of 1 oz Swiss of America Silver Rounds, you’ll find a beautiful depiction of the Swiss Alps, accompanied by the series name, “SWISS OF AMERICA.”

These historic silver rounds, struck more than 50 years ago, offer a unique addition to any silver collection. Most were minted in 1973 and 1974, though none of the rounds carry a date.
