The design found on the reverse matches that of all other releases in the series, but these 1 oz silver rounds have the third design of Spartan warriors influenced by the phrase molon labe. Rounds in this collection are available in 1 oz and 2 oz silver, with proof and antique options available.

Molon labe was famously uttered by King Leonidas of Sparta during the Battle of Thermopylae. Though remembered largely for the sacrifice of Leonidas and his 300 Spartans, there were about 1,000 other Greek soldiers involved in the battle. Unfortunately, the opposing Persian force is said to have numbered near 100,000.

On the obverse of the 1 oz Silver Molon Labe Round is the image of a Spartan soldier. He is depicted on a knee with his left hand holding his shield overhead to protect him from a volley of Persian arrows. His right hand holds a long spear, a crucial weapon for the Spartans in their phalanx tactic. At the feet of the Spartan lay the bodies of dozens of Persians already slain by the Spartan army.

King Leonidas led the independent city-state of Sparta. Though it would typically fight alone, when faced with an existential threat, the city-states of Greece would band together. Leonidas led the charge to try and hold off the advancing Persian Army. Even though he knew he was outnumbered and the Persian king gave him a chance to surrender and live, Leonidas is reported to have responded with “molon labe,” a phrase which means “come and take it.” The statement was made in defiance of the offer to surrender and challenged the Persians to come take the weapons from his soldiers’ hands.

The reverse of all 1 oz Silver Molon Labe Rounds includes the Intaglio Mint logo in the center. The primary background has a radial sunburst design and the outer edge of the field has a stippled background bordering the round’s edges.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
