“Fascist Axe” is the fourth coin issued from the “Monumental Truth” series from Silver Shield.
Hidden in plain sight, in the Congressional Chambers and on either side of the American Flag, are two gilt Fasces which are facing the flag.
The Fasces is the Fascist symbol of Benito Mussolini. The “Fascist Axe” is a symbol of bundled sticks, or power, around a cutting axe.
Mussolini’s own definition of his Fascist State power was the merger of state and corporate power. That is the true power of the United States. Corporate interests trump individual, or even Constitutional, authority. Profit over people.
There is no changing, or challenging, this entrenched, powerful, and profitable power.
The only solution is to create a Silver Shield of real, tangible wealth outside of this corrupt and unsustainable system.
The 2018 1 oz Proof Silver Shield “Fascist Axe” is part of the “Monumental Truth” series that seeks to expose the truth behind so many national monuments.
