Obverse

On the obverse side of the 5 oz Silver Reverse Proof Silverbug Alyx the Fairy Round, you will find the image of the silver fairy known as Alyx. A more mischievous silver fairy when compared to Ariana, Alyx is symbolic of the rebellious nature of silver and its desire to breakout even when market factors and speculation hold it back. This is captured in the entirety of the design element. Alyx is featured with her hands bound by rope and a closed chain around the entire design field. Despite these ties that bind, Alyxs wings are ready to lift her higher as soon as she can break free. Above her head is an inscription of In Silver We Trust, with a sunburst behind her offer sharp rays reaching toward the edge of the design field.

Reverse

The reverse of 5 oz Silver Reverse Proof Silverbug Alyx the Fairy Rounds includes the common design element of this collection. The Scarab beetle featured here was prominently used in Ancient Egypt and is found on the reverse of all designs in the Silver Fairy Series. The beetle is accompanied by inscriptions of Ag, Five Troy Ounce, 999 Fine Silver, and For the Silverbug Community.

History

The Alyx the Fairy Round design was used in a variety of silver rounds in the Silver Fairy Series. This included 1 oz silver rounds in proof and antique, as well as 5 oz silver rounds in proof and antique. These particular rounds are a later addition of reverse proof visuals offering mirrored designs over frosted fields.
