Take no prisoners... The Golden Age of Piracy saw the rise of The Great Pirate, Bartholomew Roberts. A scourge of the Atlantic, Roberts and his crew terrorized hundreds of ships ab
oard the Royal Fortune during the mid 1700s. One only had to glimpse the infamous Jolly Roger flag and a dash of scarlet coattails on the ocean's horizon to know that they were next. Solid copper 8.2 g .94 in (2.4 cm) in diameter Though "Black Bart" Roberts never minted any of his own doubloons, we like to think this Pirate Roberts Copper coin comes pretty close to what they might have looked like if he had! Its design is struck in extra high relief, so no sailor will ever overlook the grisly visage it depicts. Perfect for any pirate hoard! Also available in SILVER and BRASS ! Coin design by Michael Schantz, engraved by Tom Maringer. Learn more about our artists here. © Shire Post Mint. All rights reserved.
