Description

Bull moose are a common sight in Alaska, especially in the boreal forests and tundra regions of the state. These majestic animals can weigh up to 1,600 pounds and have antlers that can span up to six feet wide. Bull moose are known for their impressive size and strength, as well as their distinctive calls during the mating season. They are herbivores and primarily feed on leaves, twigs, and aquatic vegetation. During the fall, bull moose enter the mating season, also known as the rut, where they compete with other males for mating rights. The rut is a spectacular sight to witness, as bull moose will engage in elaborate displays of dominance and aggression. While they are typically not aggressive towards humans, it is important to give bull moose plenty of space and respect their wild nature when encountering them in the wild.

This medallion is part of our “Tracks” series which shows many of Alaska’s creatures and the tracks they leave. It is available in golden bronze, 1 oz. .999 fine silver, 1 oz. single gold relief (24k plating on the front of the silver coin) and 1 oz. double gold relief (24k gold plating on both sides). It is similar in size to a silver dollar and comes packaged in an airtight container and handsome gift box.

Alaska Mint

My wife Michele and I are the owners and operators of the Alaska Mint. I was 4 years old when my parents moved our family to Alaska from Colorado. They were young and ambitious, my Dad worked as a “roughneck” on oil platforms until they had saved up enough money to start a small jewelry shop. In 1967, Robuck & Sons, our families first jewelry business was born. Since then our family has had several stores around Alaska. In 1990 after testing with a sidewalk vendors cart for a few summers, I opened a location in downtown Anchorage where we could manufacture and sell souvenir coins, natural gold nuggets, and other Alaskan gifts. Originally, we produced the art work and had our medallions manufactured outside of Alaska. Then we started acquiring and assembling the equipment to mint silver and gold medallions right here in Anchorage. We started with one coin design. We now have thousands of dies. All of our medallions are struck in our location on 4th Avenue in downtown Anchorage. Our medallions are detailed reproductions of original sculptures. Many have a limited mintage and are highly collectible. We buy raw gold from placer miners and gold bearing quartz that is mined deep underground. From these natural elements, we fashion beautiful, one-of-a-kind jewelry that is a valuable addition to any collection. While the pieces are rare, they are surprisingly affordable. The items available in our store are either made in our shop, or by one of our longtime jewelers. We are proud of our company history and look forward to share the Alaskan experience through the Alaska Mint. Our two sons, Gunnar and Hunter, are also working with us. They are a great addition to our creative team. Mike and Michele Robuck Owners & Operators of Alaska Mint
