Product Description
HADES – GODS OF OLYMPUS – 2017 2 oz Fine Silver Antiqued Coin – PERTH MINT
To complement the Gods of Olympus 2017 2oz Silver Antiqued 12 Coin Collection, this coin features the god of the underworld, Hades.
In ancient Greek mythology, Hades was worshipped as the God of the Underworld and the ruler of the dead. In addition to the underworld, he ruled over all things beneath the earth. For this reason he was also known as the God of Wealth as he presided over all the precious metals still underground. As the ruler of the Underworld, Hades has been kept separate from the release of the Gods of Olympus 2017 2oz Silver Antiqued 12 Coin Collection.
99.9% Pure Silver
The coin is struck by The Perth Mint from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver.
High Relief Antique Design
The reverse of the coin depicts Hades standing at the bottom of a staircase in the underworld with two skulls in the background. He is holding Cerberus, the three-headed watchdog, by a chain. The inscription HADES also appears in the design.
To capture the depth and detail of the design, the coin is struck in high relief to a rimless format. It has also been individually ‘antiqued’ to give it a unique finish conveying the surface abrasions of an ancient artefact. As a result of this treatment, the appearance of each coin may vary.
Cook Islands Legal Tender
Issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of the Cook Islands, the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the 2017 year-date and the monetary denomination are shown on the coin’s obverse.
