Copper is the first metal that humanity worked with more than 10,000 years ago. Early societies were able to work with copper because it is one of only a handful of metals that can be worked with in its native state without a lot of refining. Over the course of the first 5,000 years humanity was working with copper, those ancient societies learned how to smelt it from sulfide ores and later alloy it with another metal. Copper was alloyed with tin by early societies to create bronze.
2 oz Copper SilverTowne Bullet .308 Calibers are designed in the unique bottleneck shape of the popular .308 caliber Winchester round. Though it formed the foundation of the future 7.62x51mm NATO round, it is still widely used in North America by hunters. The .308 caliber round is great for taking down medium game such as whitetail deer and pronghorn, and even larger game such as caribou and black bears.
The base of each of these 2 oz Copper SilverTowne Bullets features the only engravings on the copper bullets. On the base, you will find the weight, purity, metal content, and mint mark for the bullet. The mint mark takes the shape of a small pick ax.
SilverTowne Mint is one of America’s leading private mints. It was originally founded in Winchester, Indiana, as a small antique and coin shop. By the 1970s, it had grown to become a private minting operation as well and now produces a wide range of silver and copper bullion items.
