1987 Werewolf AMC Mythological Legends Overview
The 1987 Werewolf AMC Mythological Legends Silver Round is one of seven designs in the Mythological Legends collection issued by Robert E. Westfall, Inc. and manufactured by American Medallion Corporation (AMC) of Houston, Texas. The series depicts figures and themes from mythology, folklore, and legend, with each design sharing a common reverse identifying the collection.
The Werewolf design portrays the legendary half-man, half-wolf creature, one of the most enduring figures in European folklore. Traditionally associated with transformation under the full moon, the werewolf has appeared in myths and popular culture for centuries as a symbol of primal instinct and the struggle between humanity and the beast within.
1987 Werewolf AMC Mythological Legends Attribution
The Werewolf round is attributed to 1987 based on American Medallion Corporation’s documented transition from Texas International Mint branding to AMC branding. Unlike earlier TIM issues and later AMC-marked products, the Mythological Legends series carries no mint mark, making the series consistent with AMC’s transitional production period. The design is one of the seven documented rounds comprising the complete Mythological Legends collection.
