The Celtic cross, recognized by its distinctive ring encircling the intersection of a traditional Christian cross, dates back to the early Middle Ages in Ireland and Britain. Emerging around the 8th or 9th century, these crosses were originally carved into standing stones, often featuring intricate knotwork and other classic Celtic designs. You can now purchase 1 oz Silver Colorized Celtic Cross Bars from Scottsdale Mint online from Provident Metals.

Obverse
The obverse of the Silver Colorized Celtic Cross Bar features an artistic depiction of the Celtic cross. Its gold-toned outline contrasts beautifully with the rich green background. Some historians believe the ring in the Celtic cross may have been influenced by the halo of the Roman sun god, a symbolic element that early Christian missionaries used to help convert pagan communities.
Reverse
On the reverse of the 1 oz Silver Colorized Celtic Cross Bar, the famous Scottsdale Lion emblem is displayed. This striking design presents a crowned male lions head in detailed front-facing relief, emphasizing its majestic mane. An ornate border surrounds the lion, along with the bars identifying hallmarks. The inscriptions include 1 TR OZ, 999 FINE SILVER, and SCOTTSDALE MINT.
History
Over the centuries, the Celtic cross has grown beyond its original religious context to become a broader cultural emblem of Celtic identity. During the 19th-century Celtic Revival, the cross was incorporated into various forms of jewelry, art, and architecture, solidifying its enduring significance.
