Product Description
BAPTISM OF JESUS – 2017 2 oz Silver Coin – Biblical Series – Scottsdale Mint – Niue
1ST coin for 2017!
The Baptism is the first 2017 release, and 13th overall release, in the Scottsdale Mint’s Biblical Series featuring iconic biblical scenes. Each of these 2 oz Silver coins has a mintage of 1,499 pieces and features a high-relief, rimless design.
Coin Highlights:
- Contains 2 oz of .999 fine Silver.
- Comes packaged in a gift box reminiscent of the Bible.
- Included certificate of authenticity lists Matthew 3:16-17 (NLT) which states: After his baptism, as Jesus came up out of the water, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and settling on him. And a voice from heaven said, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy.”
- Obverse: Features the Raphael Maklouf likeness of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by the weight, purity and face value.
- Reverse: Features light descending from above, the Holy Spirit, onto Jesus as he is baptized in the river by John the Baptist.
- Edge: Laser-etched serial number, from 1 to 1499, which matches the serial number found on the included certificate of authenticity.
The certificate of authenticity has an antique feel that coincides nicely with both the finish of the 2 oz coin and the design subject. Included on the certificate is an image of Gustave Doré’s “The Baptism of Jesus”, showing how accurately Scottsdale Mint’s creative team recreated the original artwork for this coin series.
