Europa is a figure from Greek Mythology who later gave her name to the continent of Europe. In one popular version of her story Europa was a Phoenician princess who was abducted by Zeus and whisked off to Crete. The legend of Europa, and particularly the search for her by her three brothers, may well reflect the historical colonization of the Mediterranean by the Phoenicians from 1200 to 800 BCE. Today, JM Bullion offers you the 2023 1 oz Republic of Chad Goddess Europa Silver Coin.
Coin Highlights:
The story of Europa is found in Greek mythology. She was the child of the king of a land called Phoenicia, which is modern-day Lebanon. The God Zeus fell in love with Europa and wanted to take her away from her family to live with him. One day while Europa was wandering amongst her father’s herds of cattle she saw a white bull. She was not aware that Zeus had turned himself into the bull in order to trick her. After she climbed on his back he quickly jumped into the sea and carried her away from her homeland. Europa’s father was heartbroken and sent her brother Cadmus to find her and bring her home.
In the obverse design of the 2023 1 oz Goddess Europa Silver Coin, Bulmint features a depiction of the coat of arms of the Republic of Chad. The design includes a spade-shaped shield with waves on it and a sun rising overhead. The shield is supported by the heraldic goat and a heraldic lion.
For the reverse side of the 2023 Republic of Chad Goddess Europa Silver Coin, you will find the image of Europa. She sits on top of a sturdy bull which is actually Zeus who has transformed himself into the mighty animal. They ride into the far distance on a black background.
