Gods and goddesses in Greek mythology were deeply involved in human affairs, often intervening directly in the lives of mortals. They were not seen as purely benevolent or omnipotent beings, but rather as powerful entities with human-like emotions and flaws. Among the figures famous for meddling in the affairs of humanity was Poseidon. Right now, 1 oz Greek Mythology Poseidon Silver Rounds are available at JM Bullion.

Each 1 oz Greek Mythology Poseidon Silver Round available here comes from the Intaglio Mint. The rounds are housed individually in plastic flips or by multiples of 20 rounds in plastic tubes. The series of Greek Mythology Rounds includes 1 oz and 2 oz weights with designs representing Poseidon, Hera, Heracles, Medusa, Hermes, and more.
Poseidon was one of the 12 Olympian deities and the brother of Zeus and Hades. After the Olympians defeated the Titans, the three brothers drew lots to divide the world, with Poseidon receiving dominion over the seas.
For the obverse of the Greek Mythology Poseidon Silver Round, you’ll find a depiction of the famous deity. He is shown here in left-profile relief as he rides the waves of the ocean with his three horses. Poseidon has a rugged build and wields a trident in his right hand, a weapon that grants him control over the seas.
In the reverse design of the 1 oz Poseidon Silver Round, you will find a common design element for the series. Here, you’ll find the view of a Greek architectural dome as viewed from beneath the structure. The words GREEK MYTHOLOGY are engraved along the ceiling with pillars surrounding the structure.
