Spartan 1 oz Copper Round | Warrior Series

Some of the most powerful civilizations on earth owe their existence to the bravery of their fierce warriors. The Warrior Series of 1 oz silver and copper rounds honor some of these legendary fighters throughout history.

The first release in this exciting 6-design series celebrates the Spartan Warrior, one of the most formidable soldiers in the ancient world. Fighting drills began for the Spartan Warrior as early as age 6, and for the rest of his life, it was said that the only time he took a break from military training was during war. Throughout the ancient world, the word "spartan" became a symbol of fearlessness, harsh discipline, and elite fighting skills.
