Each 2018 Solomon Islands Silver Legends and Myths Coin is struck with a double-high-relief coining and a reverse proof finish. The double high-relief is created with intense pressure during the coining process, resulting in both sides of the coin featuring a concave appearance. This concave appearance means the design elements are visible in 3D as a result.
A coin with a reverse proof finish brings the opposite elements visually to a typical proof coin. On these coins, you’ll find that the design elements have a deeply-mirrored, clear visual appearance and the background field of the coins have strong, frosted matte surfaces for brilliant contrast between the design and its surface.
On the reverse of the 2018 2 oz Reverse Proof Solomon Islands Silver Legends and Myths Minotaur Coins you’ll find the imposing and powerful image of a Minotaur. In Greek mythology, the Minotaur is a mythical creature portrayed with the head of a raging bull and the powerful, muscular body of a man.
The obverse side of the Solomon Islands Legends and Myths Coins you’ll notice Queen Elizabeth II’s effigy. Here, Her Majesty is found in right-profile relief in a fourth-generation design used on British coins dating back to the start of her reign in 1953. It was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley for the Royal Mint.
All 2018 2 oz Reverse Proof Solomon Islands Silver Legends and Myths coins arrive housed inside of circular, blue presentation cases. The “LM” privy mark of the collection features on the coins and the design of the presentation case lid, and the individual coins feature a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
