Elemetal 100 oz Silver Bullet:

A brand new addition to Elemetal’s distinguished silver bullet collection: the “Silver Artillery” Series, showcasing the awe-inspiring 100oz Silver Howitzer Artillery Shell. Crafted from .999 fine silver bullion, this intricately designed replica stands as an iconic symbol of military history.

A noteworthy centerpiece, this shell would enhance the prestige of any individual or dealer’s precious metals collection – or simply serve as an envy-worthy feature of any patriot’s desk.

This meticulously crafted 100oz Silver Howitzer Artillery Shell is not just a simple bullion product; it's an embodiment of history. The shell is a replica of the munitions used in the M101 Howitzer, a powerful artillery piece that served as the backbone of the US military's field artillery units from World War II through the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Its legacy is one of reliability, precision, and immense firepower. During World War II, the M101 Howitzer was instrumental in key battles such as the Normandy landings and the Battle of the Bulge. In the Korean War, its power was felt in significant confrontations like the Battle of Inchon and the Battle of Chosin Reservoir. Moreover, during the Vietnam War, the M101 provided crucial fire support in campaigns like the Tet Offensive and the Battle of Hue.

One of the standout features of this Silver Howitzer Artillery Shell is its sand-blasted finish. This process lends the shell an unparalleled level of detail and a textured feel, accentuating its design and making it even more reminiscent of the original artillery shells. Each silver shell serves as a nostalgic homage to a significant era in military manufacturing and strategy, marking it as both a thoughtful gift for military history aficionados and a collectible piece of silver bullion.
