The obverse of the ultra high relief 2 oz Pirate Round prominently features the pirate's motto, "NO PREY NO PAY" which means that unless the privateer's raid on another ship's bounty was successful, no one gets paid! Also featured on the obverse of the 2 oz Pirate Rounds is a large pirate skull on top of a ship's wheel wrapped in line, and the inscription "2 OZ FINE SILVER .999". The background of the obverse's design, or the "field", is reminiscent of a tallship's sail, weather beaten and torn to reveal a hint of mirrored proof-like finish behind it. The reverse of the 2 oz silver Privateer Round features a large pirate ship forging ahead on a turbulent sea, sails full and a jolly roger flag flying in stormy winds. The deep, ultra high relief design and ocean waves in the foreground make you feel like you're in the middle of all the action.
