Mythical Creatures: Medusa - Iridescent Effect on 2oz Proof Silver High Relief in Antique Finish - 2018 - BIOT

Following the release of the first two coins, this series of five 2oz Fine coins illustrating famous myths known the world over has proved to be extremely popular and we are therefore delighted to announce the release of the third coin.  This stunning series of five 2oz Fine Silver coins has been produced in High Relief with each coin being Antique Finished by hand with an Iridescent Effect which brings the characters to life.  

The third coin in the series features the snake-headed Gorgon, Medusa.  A further two coins will be released to add to this unique series featuring The Hydra and The Centaur.  

The image on the coin shows Medusa surrounded by figures that have been turned into stone and Neptune’s trident can be seen in the surrounding water.  The High Relief and Antique Finish with Iridescent effects on the coin bring this mythical character to life, emphasising the venomous snakes in place of her hair.
