Niue – 2025 – 15 Dollars – The Sign of Four (Sherlock Holmes series) 200gr silver

Description

This extraordinary Sherlock Holmes coin invites collectors into a world of intrigue and deduction, honoring The Sign of Four with masterful artistry and technical precision. Struck from 200 grams of .999 silver in Antique Finish and issued by Niue with a face value of 15 dollars, it is produced in an exceptionally small mintage of just 100 pieces, each featuring a numbered edge, high relief, and vivid UV printing. The reverse captures a dramatic harbour scene from the novel, where Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson stand at the center of unfolding mysteries involving hidden treasures, long-buried secrets, and life-changing encounters—including Watson’s first meeting with Mary Morstan. Every detail, from ship rigging to weathered crates, is sculpted in ultra-high relief, while selective color gives the silver artwork remarkable depth. The obverse presents the façade of 221B Baker Street, the iconic home where Holmes unraveled his greatest cases, complete with his signature pipe and inscriptions noting the 200 g weight, Ag 999 purity, 15-dollar denomination, and 2025 year-date. With its meticulous design, literary significance, and extremely limited mintage, this coin stands as a remarkable tribute to the world’s most famous detective and a coveted treasure for collectors.
