Following the White Horse of Conquest, the second release in the Provident original series of Four Horsemen silver and copper rounds will be released on July 1st. You have only 10 more days to buy the White Horse round before it is discontinued. As of today, 13,578 silver White Horse rounds and 11,733 copper White Horse rounds have been sold.

The Red Horse of War bursts onto the scene with this lively design depicting the horseman charging forward into war. He is said to have the ability to “take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other.” The horse’s red color is symbolic of the blood spilt during battle. Each of the Four Horsemen rounds is stamped with a unique privy mark. You’ll find a privy of crossed swords on this design.

Creating an original bullion round like the Red Horse is an intricate process that begins with the artwork. Once a plan is in place, an artist draws out the design and then a sculptor creates a 3D model based on the original artwork. To the left, you can see an early sculpt of our Red Horse round. Notice that the sculpt contains no words or privy mark; these features are digitally added later in the process. Another key difference between the sculpt and the final design is that the horseman has long, flowing hair in the sculpt, which is covered by a bearskin headdress on the round.

The Red Horse will be available as a BU silver round and a BU copper round beginning on July 1st. Additionally, beginning in August, we will have a limited number of NGC graded and slabbed Red Horse rounds available for sale. These graded rounds will be available in both a proof and antiqued finish, with grades of GEM BU, 69, and 70. Each comes individually numbered in a plastic holder with a custom label that was designed for this series.

On July 1st, for one day only, you can buy both the White Horse and Red Horse rounds. The Red Horse round will be available from July 1st to October 1st. We encourage you to sign up for product alerts for the Red Horse and the subsequent designs in the series so you don’t miss out on this limited run of dazzling bullion rounds.
