Description
The Alkonost 3 oz Ag 999 coin, the third in the Slavic Beasts series following the Rusałka and Domowik, brings the enchanting world of Slavic mythology to life in precious metal. Crafted from 3 ounces of 999 fine silver, this coin immerses you in fairy tales and folklore with its ultra-high relief, oxidized finish, UV printing, selective gilding, and a 3D amber insert. Alkonost, a mythical creature with the body of a bird and the head of a beautiful woman, derives her name from the Greek goddess Alcyone, transformed into a kingfisher. Symbolizing happiness and hope, Alkonost captivates with her extraordinary voice, a sound that becomes the only one you desire to hear. Limited to just 400 pieces worldwide, this numismatic masterpiece is a tangible connection to the cultural and folk spirit of Slavic mythology, offering a unique opportunity to experience its magic in the real world.
