1 oz Copper Bar - $1 US Eagle Banknote

$1 US Eagle Banknote Copper Bar 1 Ounce is a contemporary interpretation of the historic “Black Eagle” one‑dollar note issued from 1899 to 1923. The piece is struck in .999 fine copper and weighs 1 AVDP ounce (28.349 g). Clear on‑bar inscriptions confirm the product parameters and enable swift verification. The bald eagle motif stood for national strength and unity, while the placement of Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant on the same face was a unique occurrence in U.S. paper currency. Copper as an industrial metal delivers pronounced relief at an accessible unit price, making this design an appealing option for both collectors and budget‑conscious buyers.

The layout translates the iconic “Black Eagle” artistry into an investment‑grade copper format. Smooth fields and crisp relief heighten depth and legibility, ensuring an elegant presence in capsules, tubes, or display cases. The standardized footprint of approximately 46 × 27 mm facilitates storage and systematic accumulation in small, repeatable units of non‑precious metal. Readable legends for metal, fineness, and weight aid unambiguous identification and support secondary‑market handling, while the recognizable federal typographic style preserves the note’s classical character.

Obverse faithfully renders the “Black Eagle” composition: the eagle spanning the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, the SILVER CERTIFICATE inscription below, flanked by portraits of Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant, with rich ornamental elements echoing the original note.

Reverse presents a rosette with SILVER CERTIFICATE and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, large corner numerals “1,” and an ornamental frame reflecting the historical reverse layout, together confirming the bar’s stated fineness and weight.
