SEKHMET Gods of Anger 2 oz High Relief Silver Coin Niue 2021

This amazing coin  is the third coin of the series called “Gods of Anger”. The third coin of the series is Sekhmet. It’s another terrific release. Ancient Egyptian culture is quite stunning in appearance, such artistic geniuses as H.R. Giger citing its inspiration on their work, and it’s great to see it done with a bit of passion. In Egyptian mythology, Sekhmet (/ˈsɛkˌmɛt/ or Sachmis (/ˈsækmɪs/), also spelled Sakhmet, Sekhet, Sakhet, or Scheme, among other spellings), is a warrior goddess as well as goddess of healing. She is depicted as a lioness. She was seen as the protector of the pharaohs and led them in warfare.

• Contains 2 oz of .999 pure Silver.
• Antique Finish with Selective Gold Plating
• Ultra high relief
• Extremely Limited mintage of 500 coins worldwide.

Sekhmet is one of the more striking figures in the Egyptian pantheon, carrying on the habit of giving a human body the head of an animal – in this case a lioness. As the goddess of destruction, she was never going to be shown carrying a cream bun, so a couple of wicked looking sickle-style blades sit in her grasp, nicely gilded and creating a focal point. As you should expect by now, the whole face of the coin is jam packed (I’ve got cakes on the brain today…) with architecture, finely detailed, with a pair of lionesses flanking Sekhmet.
