The cult of Ra reached its zenith during the Fifth Dynasty, when pharaohs began styling themselves as “Sons of Ra” and building sun temples in his honor. These temples were architectural marvels that aligned with the sun’s movement, demonstrating the sophisticated astronomical knowledge of ancient Egyptians. The relationship between Ra and the pharaohs was particularly significant, as rulers claimed divine authority through their connection to him, believing they would join Ra in his solar boat after death and become one with him in the afterlife.

The 2 oz Antique Ra Silver Round marks the finale of the Egyptian Gods Series. These rounds are packaged individually in protective plastic flips or in multiples of 10 within acrylic tubes. With their ultra-high-relief strike, these rounds present stunning 3D visuals that add depth and dimension to the intricate designs. Additionally, this version comes with an antique polish that creates an ancient, heirloom visual quality.

The obverse of the 2 oz Antique Ra Silver Round features a powerful depiction of Ra. As the sun god, Ra’s daily journey across the sky in his solar boat symbolized light and life. According to Egyptian cosmology, this journey included a battle with the serpent Apophis, the embodiment of chaos and darkness, ensuring the preservation of order and the continuation of life.

On the reverse of 2 oz Antique Ra Silver Rounds, the design highlights a pyramid in the background with a winged scarab beetle in the foreground. Hieroglyph-like text is included at the bottom, denoting the weight, metal content, and purity of the piece.
