Product Description
Coins are often referred to as miniature pieces of art in metal. This is the 5th edition in our successful “Spiritual Art” series dedicated to the famous Zeus. Zeus is the sky and thunder god in ancient Greek religion. He was respected as an allfather who was chief of the gods, who rules from Mount Olympus. His name is cognate with his Roman equivalent Jupiter. He was regarded as the sender of thunder and lightning, rain, and winds, and his traditional weapon was the thunderbolt. This stunning coin is based on the Statue of Zeus which was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. This was a giant seated figure, about 12.4 m (41 ft) tall, made by the Greek sculptor Phidias around 435 BC at the sanctuary of Olympia, Greece, and erected in the Temple of Zeus. Zeus sat on a painted cedarwood throne ornamented with ebony, ivory, gold, and precious stones. Struck in 3 ounces of silver and then covered with gold.
