When silver prices began to rise to $50 an ounce, the largest of silver refiners, like Handy &Harman, Johnson-Matthey, and Engelhard set on a journey to produce some of the most elegant silver bar products of their time. These were primarily 100-ounce and 10-ounce bars. However, with the arrival of 1982, Engelhard struck gold when they launched their 1-ounce silver war with one of the most contradictory images in history. It showcases an old man digging for gold. From then on there, Prospectors dominated the silver market with no competition at all for a very long time!

Obverse

For the obverse of the 1 oz Silver 1984 Prospector Round, the contradictory but legendary image of a Prospector is engraved. Commonly, a prospector is someone who digs for the most gorgeous of natural minerals like gold. Yet here on the surface of a silver round, you will see the design of an old man looking for such. The inscriptions on this side of the round include: U.S.A 1984, and The American Prospector. A circle of beads surrounds the whole design.

Reverse

For the reverse of the 1 oz Silver 1984 Prospector Round, the image of an American Eagle is engraved. Unlike other silver products in production, the design of the Eagle is reversed. It depicts an American Eagle in flight while it clutches onto a branch. It wings spread far out while it engulfs the majority of the round with its size and magnificence. The inscriptions on this side of the round include: Engelhard, and One Troy Ounce 999+Fine Silver. The outer rim of the round is decorated with a beaded circle like the obverse.
