The alchemical table of symbols is a complex system of pictorial representations used by alchemists to denote the various materials, processes, and concepts encountered in their pursuit of transforming base metals into gold. Developed during the medieval and Renaissance periods, this symbolic language served as a means of communication and a way to preserve the closely guarded secrets of alchemy. Right now, 1 oz North View Products Alchemical Table of Symbols Silver Cards are available at JM Bullion.
Card Highlights:
Each 1 oz North View Products Alchemical Table of Symbols Silver Card comes with a protective plastic sleeve. The design of these American-made silver pieces reflects the symbols commonly used in the practice of alchemy.
Each symbol in the alchemical table represents a specific element, compound, or procedure, allowing alchemists to convey information concisely and discreetly. For example, the symbol of the sun often denoted gold, while the crescent moon represented silver. The table also included symbols for the different stages of the alchemical process, such as calcination, distillation, and transmutation.
The obverse of the North View Products Alchemical Table of Symbols Silver Card reflects the design of the table itself. This codified system not only protected the knowledge of alchemy but also imbued it with a sense of mysticism and esoteric power. Although alchemy has largely been supplanted by modern chemistry, the alchemical table of symbols continues to hold a fascination for historians, artists, and those interested in the rich tapestry of scientific and cultural history. On the reverse, the 1 oz Alchemical Table of Symbols Silver Card is blank.
