COIN HIGHLIGHTS
- Ships individually in protective packaging
- Consisting of 2 oz of 999 Fine Silver
- Obverse: Features an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
- Reverse: Features an adaptation of Gustav Dore's 1865 engraving by sculptor D'Almeida Novissimo
The reverse features an adaptation of Gustav Dore's 1865 engraving by sculptor D'Almeida Novissimo. As told in Genesis 3:22-24, the high relief coin depicts Adam and Eve being banished from the Garden of Eden. As with all of Dore's work, the atmosphere is dark and brooding.
This coin has an unusual rimless design which allows the design to fill the entire field of the coin. The coin also features a wonderful, hand-finished antique patina that makes it appear as though it is an aged and treasured family heirloom. The rim of the coin matches the rest of the coin with it's weathered appearance, and has a laser-engraved serial number that matches the number on the antique-feeling certificate of authenticity.
