Cook Islands – 2025 – 20 Dollars – Great Wall of China 3oz silver

Description

Long ago, when the Great Wall protected China from the fierce winds and its northern invaders, brave traders walked along these ancient paths in search of new adventures and trading opportunities. This stunning 3 ounces silver coin masterfully captures its fabled heritage. On one side, the wall rises in an impressive 8 mm high relief thanks to our smartmiting® technology. The engraving 万里长城 (Wànlǐ Chángchéng), which means «ten thousand miles long wall», is a symbol of the boundless strength and durability of this ancient defense system. In addition to the relief, the design itself also impresses with its color applications and the fact that the wall is depicted with partial gilding. This gives it a fascinating luster and makes it a real eye-catcher.

But that’s not all! The reverse of this extraordinary coin conceals a real treasure from times gone by: the old Cash coin, once a symbol of prosperity, luck and wisdom. This antique coin representation is carved with the traditional «Lù» symbol, which stands for wealth and good fortune. It is framed by a majestic feng shui dragon, which watches over harmony and wisdom in skillful relief. In Chinese culture, the dragon symbolizes pure power, comprehensive protection and immeasurable prosperity. The filigree Cash coin is gold-plated, which further emphasizes the timeless significance of the symbols depicted.

This coin tells a story that combines China’s rich culture and ancient heritage with the highest craftsmanship of modern minting – a true masterpiece!
