Post-World War II, Texas ranching entered a new era of scientification and business optimization. Ranchers increasingly employed modern animal husbandry techniques, improved grassland management, and sophisticated marketing strategies. The rise of feedlots and industrial meat processing changed the industry dynamics, though many Texas ranches maintained traditional cow-calf operations.

Steer wrestling continued to evolve as a rodeo sport throughout the 20th century. The event became standardized, with rules requiring wrestlers (or “bulldoggers”) to bring the steer to a stop and twist it onto its side with all four legs pointing in the same direction. The sport gained popularity for its display of strength, timing, and courage, becoming a mainstay of professional rodeo circuits.

On the obverse of the 2024 1 oz Silver Steer Wrestling Round, you’ll see two of Texas’ most famous symbols. The smooth Lone Star is set against a textured, topographical map of Texas in the background.

The reverse of the 2024 Texas Mint Silver Steer Wrestling Rounds shows a cowboy bringing down a bull. The term “take the bull by the horns” originated from the practice of cattle wrestling, as depicted in this design.

These 2024 1 oz Texas Mint Silver Steer Wrestling Rounds are available individually in plastic flips. Multiples are packaged in acrylic tubes of 25 rounds. You can also choose from mini-Monster Boxes holding 10 tubes for a total of 250 rounds or Monster Boxes holding 20 tubes for a total of 500 rounds.
