Obverse

The obverse of the Colorized Scottsdale Connecticut State Flag Silver Bar showcases the Scottsdale Lion. This crowned lion, in a front-facing relief, is the mint’s emblem and is positioned on the right side of the bar. The left side of the field includes the mint name, with the weight, metal content, and purity of the bar listed at the top.

Reverse

On the reverse side of the 1 oz Colorized Connecticut State Flag Silver Bar, youll find the Connecticut state flag. The three grapevines on the shield are the central feature of the flag. These vines are believed to represent the three original settlements that merged to form Connecticut: Hartford, Windsor, and Wethersfield. Some historians also suggest that the grapevines may symbolize either the European settlers who brought grapevines or the Native Americans who taught them agricultural techniques.

History

The azure blue background of the flag is significant in itself. Blue is often associated with loyalty and justice, values important to the state’s identity. The use of this color also connects Connecticut’s flag to those of other states and to the blue field of the United States flag, symbolizing Connecticut’s place within the Union.
