The "Deuce Four" in the name "Silver Deuce Four Skull Type II Silver Round" relates to the U.S. Army's 24th Infantry Regiment. From 1869 to 1951, and again from 1995 to 2006, this infantry regiment was active, consisting mainly of African-American soldiers. The regiment is noteworthy for serving their nation when black troops were treated as "second class" soldiers. The 24th Infantry served all over the Western United States in 1898. Their tasks included garrisoning frontier posts, fighting against American Indians, protecting roadways from bandits, and guarding the U.S.-Mexico border. The 24th Infantry fought as a separate regiment in the South Pacific Theater during World War II. The regiment also served from 2004 to 2005 in the Iraq War and was decorated for its service, with a total of 181 Purple Hearts received by its soldiers.

This silver round is minted by the Intaglio Mint from Denver, CO using one troy ounce of .999 fine silver; a nice addition to our silver bullion category.
