Pearl Harbor
December 7, 1941: 353 Japanese aircraft attacked the U.S. Naval Base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The attack lasted 1 hour and 15 minutes and took the lives of 2,403 U.S. personnel, including 68 civilians. The following day, Congress declared war against Japan, and the United States officially entered World War II.
Battle of Midway
June 4, 1942: Japanese carriers launched aircraft in an attack on the U.S. base on Midway Atoll. However, the U.S. was ready for them, having broken the Japanese communication codes. All four Japanese carriers were lost, and the U.S. claimed an important victory that stopped Japanese expansion in the Pacific.
Battle of Normandy
June 6, 1944 (D-Day): Nearly 133,000 U.S. troops and their allies landed on the shores of Normandy, France. By the end of the month, more than 850,000 troops and personnel, 148,000 vehicles, and 570,000 tons of supplies made this the largest amphibious invasion in military history.
Battle of Iwo Jima
February 19, 1945: After months of naval and air bombardment, U.S. Marines invaded the tiny but strategically significant island of Iwo Jima. Approximately 70,000 U.S. Marines and 18,000 Japanese soldiers took part in the battle. The island was declared secured 36 days later on March 26, 1945.
THE ULTIMATE TRIBUTE to our nation's heroes
From the Attack on Pearl Harbor that launched the United States into the war to the victory at sea during the Battle of Midway, the bravery of the soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, and the iconic victory at the Battle of Iwo Jima, these designs honor the heroes who served their nation and protected the free world through their honor and sacrifice.

Can I buy individual coins vs. owning the complete set?

Can these coins be included in a precious metals IRA?
The 1 oz. and 5 oz. silver World War II: Valor & Victory Series coins meet the strict IRS requirements for inclusion in a precious metals IRA. Because the gold World War II: Valor & Victory Series of coins are graded and certified, they cannot be held in a precious metals IRA per IRS regulations. Please call to speak with an Account Executive to learn more about purchasing precious metals for inclusion in an IRA.

How much do the gold coins cost?

How much gold and silver should I consider owning?
While many financial experts recommend allocating anywhere from 5% to 30% of a portfolio to gold and silver, precisely how much one should own will differ for every individual depending on their personal situation and needs. A sound strategy takes into account multiple factors including your financial goals, risk tolerance, and market conditions. To learn more, call U.S. Money Reserve to speak with an Account Executive.
Is there a good gold-to-silver ratio to follow?
While there’s no “one size fits all” answer, the gold-to-silver ratio has historically averaged around 50:1. During periods of economic uncertainty, the ratio tends to be higher, reflecting a preference for the perceived stability of gold. During periods of economic growth, the ratio may be lower, reflecting a preference for silver’s industrial applications including its use in solar panels, electric vehicle batteries, and consumer electronics. The precise gold-to-silver ratio that’s right for you will depend on your personal financial goals, risk tolerance, and other factors. A U.S. Money Reserve Account Executive can help you make that determination.
What are the benefits of owning silver vs. gold?
While the historic rally in gold prices we’ve seen recently has dominated headlines, many analysts believe the silver market is also positioned for a breakout, largely due to its strong industrial demand in green energy technologies. Silver is one of the most approachable precious metals for beginners because of its affordability, straightforward valuation, and accessibility. For those who are considering owning precious metals but aren’t quite ready to purchase gold, silver may be a great entry-level choice.
