Last year, I filled uo a couple of tubes of silver rounds with the iconic Statue of Liberty design. This year, I am on a 'tubular journey' to complete a tube of another American iconic design- The American Prospector. I decided on Engelhard silver rounds because it is mostly what is still available from the secondary market.

Continuing on from where we left off at 12 silver rounds in the tube a few weeks ago...

Two 1982s, one 1983, five1984s, two 1986, one 1985, and one 1987

I started the tube at the beginning of the year and shared my progress with you through the months.

Today, a want to show a rare silver round that combines the designs from two commemorative coins in my wish list: [Both images below were taken from HERE.]

1925 California

1926 Oregon Trail
