Hi guys, I dug deep through the stack to find this beauty. This is a Northwest Territorial Mint five oz. Silver round that is trimmed and edged in gold.
NWTM filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy on April 1 2016. There are claims of ownership regarding the dies and associated materials, and their trustees have updated their web page as of May 24 2018.
The losses to customers and creditors amounted to 50 million, and the owner Ross Hansen is blaming the loss of a defamation lawsuit as the reason for the bankruptcy. They did produce very beautiful Silver rounds with very deep relief.
So guys, anyone else have some of these?
