The Draper Mint was founded in 1960 out of Draper, Utah. The name is probably familiar to most, but even more familiar to most is Swiss of America, which was one of the Draper lines of bullion back in the day. They did the iconic 1 oz Swiss of America “rolo” chunky rounds, the thin extruded 5 and 10 oz class bars, the 5 oz “hockey puck” rounds, as well as a handful of other various bars and rounds. I’ll be updating this post in the future with more images, but today, wanted to showcase the 5 oz rounds, which I’m a big fan of.
These came in 3 different varieties, “The Minuteman” and or “The Patriot” is the most common, followed by “The Eagle,” and lastly “The Bill of Rights,” far and away the most rare. See pics below for comparison.
Have you ever seen a 1 oz gold roll from the Draper mint?
