2015 1 Oz AOCS Silver Shield AG Bull Round BU

This design has been produced each year since 2014.

Obverse: The central feature on the obverse is a bull running to the left. A circle frames the bull in such a way that the bull seems to be bursting out of the circle. Underneath the bull and to the right are the letters "AG", the chemical symbol for silver.

Reverse: The round’s reverse presents the Trivium of Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric upon which a classical education was based. Grammar (Observation) is the rational and unemotional observation of symbols, situations, or facts that allow truth to be observed. Logic is processing the current set of facts and logically thinking about what will be the logical consequences or the best course of action in light of the observation. Rhetoric is the ability to tell either yourself or others of your observation and your line of thinking. The Trivium is the three-step thought process that breaks the slave thought and allows the individual to become their highest and best self. Above the trivium, the phrase "SILVER SHIELD" can be found while below it is inscribed the weight, purity, content, and date of "1 TROY OUNCE 2015 .999 PURE AG". A circle frames the central motif and the text and stylized sun rays decorate the outer edge of the circle.
