Description

Our “Don’t Mess with Texas” series showcases some of the iconic things that make Texas so special. The forth of the series is the Gonzales Cannon.

The Gonzales cannon of “Come and Take It” fame was a Spanish-made, bronze artillery piece of six-pound caliber. The gun was the object of contention in late September and early October 1835 between a Mexican military detachment from Bexar and American colonists who settled in Texas. The disagreement produced the battle of Gonzales, considered to be the first battle of the Texas Revolution.

Contains 2 Troy Ounces .999 Fine Silver
Obverse: A depiction of the Gonzales Cannon
Reverse: The common reverse for the series, with the skull of a longhorn centered, an oak branch to the right and an olive branch to the left. A star centered on the forehead of the skull. “DON’T MESS WITH TEXAS” around the lower circumference, with the hallmark at 6 o’clock.
