Product Description

This amazing silver coin represents the first issue Zheng He in the series Famous Explorers Zheng He was an explorer, a diplomatic agent and a commander in chef of the great Chinese fleet. As a trusted deputy of the Chinese Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty, he was given an extraordinary mission to accomplish. In 1405 Zheng He set out on his first sea expedition - between 1405 and 1433 the Chinese armada sailed over the Indian Ocean and made seven trips. 

To give it an antique finish, matching the greatness of the hero, the coin was oxidized. The coin is decorated with a porcelain insert, which was hand-painted with the greatest attention to detail.
