Around the 7th century BCE, the Roman numeral system took shape in ancient Rome, building on earlier Etruscan styles. It used letters from the Latin alphabet to represent numbers and became the standard across the Roman Empire for hundreds of years. Today, Scottsdale Mint pays tribute to that historical system with its modern silver bars. Now available at BullionMax, the 1 Kilo Scottsdale Silver Imperium Collection M1000 Bar blends ancient tradition with contemporary minting.

Each 1 Kilo Scottsdale Silver Imperium Collection M1000 Bar ships in sealed plastic to protect the surface. This series, part of the Imperium Collection, highlights the lasting legacy of Roman numerals through a clean and industrial design. The bars feature a matte finish and include the official Scottsdale Mint logo on the obverse side.

The Roman numeral M stands for one thousand and is derived from the Latin word mille. It’s the largest numeral in the standard Roman counting system and can be repeated (MM for 2000, MMM for 3000) to express greater values. To represent even larger numbers, ancient Romans used a system of lines or overbars to indicate multiplication. Today, M is still often seen in dates, especially on monuments and in year notations like MCMXC (1990).

On the obverse, the 1 Kilo Scottsdale Silver Imperium Collection M1000 Bar showcases the Scottsdale Lion emblem, along with the hallmark inscriptions. The central focus is the Roman numeral M, boldly placed in the middle of the bar. Its clean lines and minimalist layout give it a modern look while staying rooted in historical themes. The reverse side of the bar is left blank.
