5 oz Scottsdale Silver Imperium Collection V5 Bar (New)
The Roman numeral system began in ancient Rome around the 7th century BCE and was used across the Roman Empire for more than 1,000 years. Originating from Etruscan influences, it used Latin letters to express numbers. Today, Scottsdale Mint honors that legacy through the Imperium Collection, which brings historical inspiration into modern silver bars. BGASC now offers 5 oz Scottsdale Silver Imperium Collection V5 Bars as part of this ongoing tribute. **Highlights:** - **Arrives in protective plastic!** - **Part of the Imperium Collection of silver bars!** - **New V5 design in the series!** - Contains 5 Troy oz of .999 pure silver. - The obverse features the Scottsdale Lion and V5 emblems. - On the reverse, the bar is blank. Scottsdale Mint ships each bar in protective plastic to help guard against scratches and wear. The Imperium Collection uses a straightforward, industrial finish to highlight the strength of its Roman numeral themes. The mints logo is also clearly marked on each piece. **Design** The obverse side of the 5 oz Imperium V5 Bar features the Scottsdale Lion near the top and the weight and purity inscriptions near the bottom. A large Roman numeral V is centered between them. The use of V comes from an old tradition, possibly based on a hand showing five fingers or a similar Etruscan character. The reverse of this silver bar is left completely blank. **History** The letter V holds an important role in the Roman numeral system. It stands for the number five and is used to form other values, such as VI (6), VII (7), and VIII (8). The symbol is never duplicated in a row and consistently represents five regardless of where it is used. **Ordering** Have questions about this bar or others in our catalog?
