Russian Roulette, a deadly game of chance, has long been a symbol of risk and fatalism, famously depicted in films like The Deer Hunter. With origins believed to date back to 19th-century Russia, this game has permeated history, literature, and pop culture as the ultimate test of luck and courage.
The reverse design captures the moment of reckoning: a skull, wearing a red headband, grips a cigarette between its teeth and presses a revolver to its temple. Behind it, a detailed American roulette wheel with the double-zero adds to the tension. Scattered across the table are symbols of vice—vodka bottles, glasses, and burnt-out cigarettes—reinforcing the chaotic stakes of the game.
What makes this coin truly unique is its shaped revolver cylinder design, with sculpted indentations along the edges mimicking the real-life chambers of a six-shot revolver, also evoking a classic casino chip. The obverse completes the concept, featuring a realistic six-chamber cylinder with a single loaded round in gold-gilding, bringing the theme full circle.
Issued by the Republic of Chad in 2025, this 2 oz .999 fine silver legal tender coin measures 45 mm in diameter and features an antiqued ultra-high relief finish, with selective gold gilding and coloring for maximum detail. With a mintage of just 666 pieces, this coin is a daring addition for collectors who appreciate bold designs and the thrill of chance.
