King Tut is one of the most mysterious rulers of ancient Egypt who became the pharaoh at the tender age of nine years old in 1332 B.C. He ruled the country at a time of conflict, when battles over land raged between Egypt and the neighboring kingdom of Nubia. Nearly a decade after coming to power, the young leader died at about 18. His legacy has inspired modern pop culture despite his short-lived existence. Today, JM Bullion offers you the 2023 1 oz Republic of Sierra Leone Silver Sarcophagus Coin.
Coin Highlights:
Historians didn’t know much about Tut until 1922 when a British archaeologist named Howard Carter uncovered Tut’s tomb in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. After finding a crypt beneath the Egyptian desert, Carter spent much of the next two years searching the tomb. But the biggest treasure was within another room in the tomb, where Carter found a coffin. The coffin opened to reveal another coffin. Inside the second coffin was a third coffin made of gold. Inside was Tut’s mummified body, untouched for more than 3,000 years. This special silver coin highlights the 100th anniversary of the opening of his tomb!
The obverse field of the 2023 1 oz Silver Sarcophagus Coin features the official coat of arms for the Republic of Sierra Leone. It depicts two lions standing on their hind legs in front of two long palm trees. A third lion lingers in the coin’s center with torches behind it.
On the reverse field of the 2023 Republic of Sierra Leone Silver Sarcophagus Coin, you will find the death mask of King Tut. This is the face of the coffin used to bury kings and queens in ancient Egypt. It is detailed with the iconic Egyptian crown, an outline of the young man’s face, and a snake at the peak of the crown. The inscriptions found on this side of the coin include; Tutankhamun along with the weight and denomination of the coin!
