Featured on the obverse of the 2025 1 oz Proof Colorized Silver James the son of Zebedee Coins is a portrait of King Charles III. This left-facing profile was designed by Jody Clark, the same artist responsible for the final portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. In this depiction, Charles III is shown without a crown.

The reverse of the 2025 Proof Colorized Republic of Ghana Silver James the son of Zebedee Coins illustrates a scene of James in the moments before his martyrdom. Although Judas Iscariot was the first apostle to die, James holds the distinction of being the first to suffer martyrdom for his faith. His execution, ordered by King Herod, was carried out by sword.

James witnessed several pivotal moments in Jesus’s ministry, including the Transfiguration, the raising of Jairus’s daughter, and Jesus’s agony in the Garden of Gethsemane. These exclusive experiences positioned him as one of Jesus’s closest confidants and suggest he played a crucial role in the early Christian movement. His presence at these significant events indicates the special trust Jesus placed in him and his brother John.

These 2025 1 oz Proof Colorized Republic of Ghana Silver James the son of Zebedee Coins are available in plastic capsules and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. Each proof specimen has frosted designs and mirrored fields, with selective colorization added to the figure of James on the reverse.
