    Can anyone here help & enlighten me with a name of what I bought today? I cant find anything similar on the internet.

    Bought it because I liked the look not to add to any specific collection.

    1 dollar .999 1 oz silver coin

    Hmm that's weird. Did the RAM produce 2 different 2009 $1 Ox Proof coins?

    (Note: It is 3/8oz, not a full 1oz)

    Maybe it's a different series?
