Third issue from the Ancient Myth series - Prometheus
Obverse:
The obverse of the Prometheus 2 oz coin transports you into the heart of an ancient tale. Imprinted upon its surface is the enduring image of Prometheus, the defiant Titan, depicted in stunning detail. Chained to a rugged rock, the anguish in his expression is palpable as he endures the relentless torment of an eagle feasting upon his regenerating liver. The intricate chains that bind him are more than just artistic elements – one among them is a delicate rose gold chain, a genuine insert that adds a touch of elegance and symbolism to this numismatic masterpiece. The obverse captures the essence of the myth in a way that resonates with the viewer's senses.
Reverse:
Flipping the coin reveals the majestic reverse, a tableau that echoes the heights of Mount Olympus. The undulating landscape of Olimp Hill sprawls across the background, a testament to the gods' vantage point over the mortal realm. Near this divine realm is the ever-burning fire, a profound symbol of the stolen knowledge that Prometheus bestowed upon humanity. The reverse complements the coin's theme by juxtaposing the ethereal beauty of Olympus with the raw power of the fire that once connected the mortal and divine realms.
