In September 1620, the Mayflower departed from southern England bound for the New World. Aboard the ship were English families who had previously left England for the Netherlands in pursuit of religious freedom. The Mayflower had previously picked up Pilgrims from Holland before crossing back to England and later departing for the New World. The voyage lasted just over two months, with the ship arriving in what is now Cape Cod in November 1620.
All of these 2020 1 oz Reverse Proof Silver American 400th Anniversary of the Mayflower Medals are available in perfect condition. The PR/PF70 grade indicates a medal that has full, original mint luster and no detractions. Additionally, these reverse-proof medals have mirrored designs overlaying frosted fields.
Please keep in mind that Silver.com will select your items at random after your payment clears. While all these medals have a perfect 70 certification, the exact grade and labels in the slab can vary.

If you buy more than one, you may get matching specimens.
The obverse of 2020 Silver American 400th Anniversary of the Mayflower Medals comes with a depiction of a Pilgrim family. The Pilgrims, not to be confused with the Puritans that also settled in the northeast, believed in separating themselves from the Church of England, which is why they sought new freedoms in the New World.
On the reverse side of the 2020 1 oz Reverse Proof Silver 400th Anniversary of the Mayflower Medal, you will see a Wampanoag family tending to their crops. The Wampanoag were responsible for showing the Pilgrims how to successfully grow crops in the New World, enabling the sustainability of the Plymouth Colony.
