American Hartford Gold Unveils Exclusive 2025 Silver Britannia SS Tilawa Coin
A Historic Treasure Minted from the Legendary SS Tilawa Shipwreck Silver, Now Available for Collectors and Investors
LOS ANGELES, May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- American Hartford Gold, the nation's largest precious metals retailer, proudly announces the release of the exclusive 2025 Silver Britannia SS Tilawa Coin, a remarkable treasure minted from historic silver bars recovered from the SS Tilawa shipwreck.
The SS Tilawa, a British India Steam Navigation Company ocean liner, was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine on November 23, 1942, in the Indian Ocean. Known as the "Indian Titanic," the tragic sinking led to the loss of 280 lives and sent 60 tons of silver bullion to the ocean floor. Decades later, in 2017, a remarkable salvage operation brought the precious cargo back to the surface, igniting global fascination and preserving a piece of history.
Now, over 80 years since its fateful voyage, this storied silver has been transformed into five-ounce .999 fine Silver Britannia coins by The Royal Mint. Each 2025 Silver Britannia coin features a unique SS Tilawa privy mark, a ship's anchor flanked by the year 1942, above the words "SS TILAWA," all enclosed within a circle. These are the only Silver Britannias ever minted with this historic mark, making them a true collector's item.
"We are thrilled to offer our clients the opportunity to own a tangible piece of history," said Sanford Mann, CEO of American Hartford Gold. "The 2025 Silver Britannia SS Tilawa Coin is more than an investment in silver; it's a legacy minted from the depths of history."
With only a limited number of coins struck, collectors and investors are urged to secure their piece of maritime history before they are gone. Each coin is individually encapsulated for preservation, and they are available in boxes of 30 coins, totaling 150 troy ounces of pure silver.
"American Hartford Gold is committed to providing our clients with unique opportunities that go beyond traditional precious metals," added Max Baecker, President of American Hartford Gold. "The SS Tilawa silver coins are a testament to both historical resilience and modern craftsmanship."

Japan's Firms Raised Capital Spending Ahead of US Tariffs
(Bloomberg) -- Japanese businesses increased capital investment at a faster pace in the first quarter of this year just as the Trump administration touted the coming tariff campaign that kicked off in March. Billionaire Steve Cohen Wants NY to Expand Taxpayer-Backed Ferry Where the Wild Children's Museums Are Now With Colorful Blocks, Tirana's Pyramid Represents a Changing Albania The Economic Benefits of Paying Workers to Move NYC Congestion Toll Brings In $216 Million in First Four Months Capital expenditure on goods excluding software gained 1.8% in the three months through March from the previous quarter, when such outlays rose by 1.3%, the Finance Ministry reported Monday. The reading compares with a 1.4% gain in corporate investment reported in the preliminary reading of Japan's gross domestic product. The latest data will be factored into a revised GDP report due for release on June 9. Compared with a year ago, investment including software increased 6.4%, beating the median estimate of a 3.8% gain. Profits rose 3.8% from a year earlier and sales advanced 4.3%. Business spending holds the key to the country's economic growth as inflation keeps a lid on household spending and Donald Trump's tariff campaign clouds the trade outlook. The data will be used to revise the first quarter GDP report after the preliminary reading showed a contraction driven by weak trade figures and stalling consumption. 'There will be little impact on the revised GDP figures,' said Takeshi Minami, chief economist at Norinchukin Research Institute. 'I think the GDP results will remain negative, as consumption continues to struggle and the tariffs hit exports. I expect negative growth to continue in the April-June period.' The value of sales and capital investment both reached record levels, with food and steel companies increasing outlays to boost production capacity, a ministry official said. The tariffs are expected to dent exporters' competitiveness and may reduce their willingness to invest in facilities and raise wages. A 25% tariff on steel and aluminum took effect in March, followed by the assessment of a levy at the same rate on autos and a 10% across-the-board tax starting in April. The across-the-board duty will rise to 24% in early July, barring a trade deal. 'I think capital investment in machinery is slowing down,' Minami said. 'The impact of tariffs will become clearer in the April-June period, so I don't think we will see an improvement in capital investment figures.' Japan's biggest carmakers are likely to take a hit of more than $19 billion from the tariffs as they are heavily reliant on the US market. Toyota Motor Corp., the world's biggest carmaker, will probably sustain the worst hit. Monday's data come as the government steps up a campaign to encourage corporate investment. An expert panel of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry recommended that when companies have excess funds on hand, they channel the money into capital investment rather share buybacks, according to an interim report. The Bank of Japan on May 1 said the slowdown in overseas economies is likely to weigh on exports and production, causing business investment to decelerate. It said that companies are expected to maintain investment to cope with labor shortages and to enhance digitalization and decarbonization. Japan continues to seek reprieves from the US tariffs while the UK reached a deal and China agreed upon a tariff truce with Trump. Japan's top trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa said over the weekend that the latest round of discussions with the Trump administration has put the two nations on track for a deal as early as this month. Akazawa may return to the US this week, according to NHK. At home, Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's government approved an emergency measure last week to help businesses and households deal with the impact of the tariffs. --With assistance from Takashi Umekawa.

Dodge, Honda, and Cleetus? NASCAR's Manufacturer Future Is Getting Interesting
Dodge, Honda, and Cleetus? NASCAR's Manufacturer Future Is Getting Interesting originally appeared on Athlon Sports. NASCAR fans have heard for years that there was the possibility of a new manufacturer joining the sport. In fact, one of the sanctioning body's main lines of reasoning for not increasing horsepower through the years has been due to said potential manufacturer not having the ability to produce that level of power. Advertisement On Sunday, Adam Stern of the Sports Business Journal reported that YouTube sensation and part-time ARCA driver Cleetus McFarland could drive for a Truck Series team in 2026 with support from the Stellantis' Ram brand, if the automaker enters the sport as has been reported since earlier this year. Dodge exited the sport in 2012 and there hasn't been a new OEM enter NASCAR since Toyota joined the Trucks in 2004. Cleetus McFarland poses for photos on the grid at Charlotte Motor to Stern, a document viewed by SBJ indicated that McFarland is listed as one of the names of the drivers in the program. He would also be a brand ambassador. In addition to Dodge, Stern wrote that Honda is 'also eyeing a potential entry into NASCAR, though the timing of that is less clear.' NASCAR has been in conversations with Honda for years, trying to convince the Japanese automaker to enter its series. Honda is currently one of two OEMs in IndyCar with Chevrolet, but it has stated that it is considering leaving IndyCar when its deal expires after the 2026 season. Advertisement All of the possible NASCAR entries, both McFarland and OEMs, are rumors at this point. That said, things do appear to be heating up and it wouldn't be a surprise if there's an announcement in the coming months.
