The Niue Biblical Series is a collaboration between the island nation of Niue and the Scottsdale Mint, a private mint in the United States. This series launched in 2015 and has presented six new designs each year of availability. Though each new coin issued in the series has a different reverse design, there are several commonalities that continue throughout the series.
First and foremost, all of the coins are antique specimens. The coins are struck on rimless blanks that, when combined with the antique visuals, help create the appearance of a coin that has been around for hundreds of years. The designs on the reverse, though ever-changing, are all inspired by the biblical design works of Gustave Dore.
Queen Elizabeth II is on the obverse side of 2021 2 oz Saint Paul Shipwrecked Biblical Silver Coins. This effigy of the Queen is the third-generation portrait that was created in 1985 and used only briefly through 1997. This design was created by Raphael Maklouf and is widely considered a timeless depiction of Her Majesty.
Saint Paul is shown shipwrecked on the island of Malta in the reverse design of 2021 Saint Paul Shipwrecked Biblical Silver Coins. Paul was famous for planting the seeds of Christianity in Asia Minor and the Far East. During his travels in 60 AD, he became mired on the island of Malta following a shipwreck.
These 2021 2 oz Saint Paul Shipwrecked Biblical Silver Coins are available to you for purchase with individual packaging. Each coin comes in a Bible-themed booklet with the biblical passages related to the shipwreck of Saint Paul featured on the included Certificate of Authenticity. Each coin in this series comes with an individual serial number etched on the rim.
