The Republican Party Silver Round is .999 pure silver and displays a beautiful duet of finishes: a glossy background with a frosted elephant on the front. On the back, "Land of the free, home of the brave" is inscribed, along with part of the Pledge of Allegiance: "One nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." The Republican Silver Round will be packaged in a coin slip during shipment for protection.
The Elephant represents the Republican Party and was used in Abraham Lincoln's presidential campaign. Soldiers used the elephant as a symbol of combat so Thomas Nast, a famous political cartoonist of the time, drew the elephant design that is still used. Appropriately so, Nast also drew the Donkey that represents the Democratic Party. Funny to think that although these two parties have completely changed (and actually switched) over the years, their mascots have remained the same.
