The BVI Pegasus Silver Coins have been issued for the British overseas territory since 2017. The Pobjoy Mint issues a variety of coins for the British Virgin Islands, but the Pegasus Series is perhaps the most prominent. The use of a horse on BVI circulation coinage has a long history, making the Pegasus a natural choice for the reverse of these silver bullion coins from Pobjoy.
All 2019 2 oz British Virgin Islands Silver Reverse Frosted Pegasus Coins are available to purchase today with protective plastic capsules. The release of the 2 oz silver coin follows the previous annual issues of the Pegasus Silver Coin in 1 oz silver. Each of these coins is a reverse frosted specimen, meaning the coins have frosted design backgrounds and mirrored elements. Further, the coins arrive in Brilliant Uncirculated condition.
On the reverse of 2019 BVI Silver Reverse Frosted Pegasus Coins is the image of the famed flying horse from Greek mythology. The horse is said to have come from the goddess Athena and Pobjoy Mint has used two different designs in the series to this point with the 2019 dated coins repeating the 2018 design.
Pegasus is rumored to have previously served Zeus, the most powerful god in Ancient Greek mythology. As a reward for his service, Pegasus was given a unique form of immortality that saw him transformed into a constellation in the cosmos on the last day of his life.
The obverse of 2019 2 oz BVI Silver Reverse Frosted Pegasus Coins includes the image of Queen Elizabeth II. This portrait of the Queen is unique to Pobjoy Mint coinage and captures her right-profile relief with head, neckline, and shoulders all included in the design element. She wears the Royal Diadem crown on her head.
