Cadillac®
Cadillac was founded by Henry Leland, a master mechanic and entrepreneur, in 1902. He named the company after Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, sieur de Cadillac, the founder of Detroit, Michigan.
Cadillac is known for many firsts in the automobile industry. For instance, it was the first carmaker to mass-produce vehicles using precision parts that could be interchanged, setting a new standard for manufacturing.
To celebrate Cadillac, we offer silver and gold rounds and sets. Many rounds are sealed in protective packaging, and the gift sets come in branded boxes.

History of the Cadillac Logo
Our rounds feature the Cadillac logo from 1902 through 1961. The Cadillac logo has undergone numerous transformations since its inception, reflecting the brand's evolution and the eras in which the changes occurred. The emblem was inspired by the coat of arms of Le Sieur Antoine De La Mothe Cadillac.
1902-1906
The original 1902 Cadillac logo displayed a detailed depiction of the Cadillac family's historic crest, a colorful coat of arms. It had merlettes (small duck-like birds), a crown, and a shield split into quadrants that displayed symbols such as fesses and bars.
1906-1915
The logo evolved into a simpler, more streamlined design. The merlettes and the intricate details of the original coat of arms were dropped in favor of a more abstract representation. Still, the basic structure of the crest remained.
1915-1925
While the central crest remained constant, the surrounding wreath design was incorporated. This wreath wrapped around the crest, representing luxury and class, attributes associated with the Cadillac brand.
1925-1933
The design remained relatively unchanged during this period, but the proportions and the finer details were often altered.
1933-1969
In the mid-1930s, the V-shape was introduced underneath the crest and wreath, symbolizing Cadillac's V8, V12, and V16 engines. The design was iconic and set a precedent for the logos that followed.
