Clipper ships made their mark in the 1830s as a major advancement in shipbuilding. Designed for speed, they featured sleek hulls, towering masts, and pointed bows that allowed them to cut swiftly through the water. By the 1850s, these ships became vital in global trade, especially during the California Gold Rush and the tea trade with China. Today, 1 Gram Gold Clipper Ship Rounds are available for purchase online from Provident Metals.
Highlights:
These 1 Gram Gold Clipper Ship Rounds are securely packaged in protective plastic capsules. Monarch crafts these gold rounds by hand, rolling gold sheets, cutting each blank, and stamping the design elements individually.
Obverse
The obverse side of the Gold Clipper Ship Round features the Monarch logo at the center. Monarch Precious Metals forms its logo by arranging the initials MPM into a crown-like design. Around the outer edge, the full name of the mint is stamped. Inscriptions read MONARCH PRECIOUS METALS.
Reverse
On the reverse of 1 Gram Gold Clipper Ship Rounds, a detailed clipper ship is depicted sailing through the water. With speeds reaching up to 20 knots, these ships were essential for transporting valuable and time-sensitive goods such as tea, opium, and gold prospectors eager to make their fortune. Inscriptions include ONE GRAM, .9999, and FINE GOLD.
History
Although clipper ships were famous for their speed and agility, their dominance was short-lived, lasting only about three decades before steamships became the preferred choice for global shipping. Some of the most renowned clippers, including the Cutty Sark and Flying Cloud, set speed records that made them legendary. The Flying Cloud, for instance, completed the journey from New York to San Francisco in just 89 days and 8 hoursan incredible feat for its time.
