2017 $2 FALCON OF TUTANKHAMUN FINE SILVER COIN

FALCON OF TUTANKHAMUN – THREE AMBERS – 2017 2 oz Pure Silver Coin | Mint of Poland

Unearthed among the legendary treasures of Tutankhamun’s tomb were a number of exquisite falcon-shaped amulets, symbolizing Horus — the Egyptian god of the sky and protector of pharaohs. This 2 oz pure silver coin honors that powerful iconography, depicting the regal Falcon of Tutankhamun, wings spread in full glory and clutching two shen rings — ancient emblems of infinity and protection. In ancient Egyptian belief, falcon-shaped jewelry was more than decoration; it served as a spiritual shield, guarding the wearer from misfortune and evil. Enhancing the symbolism, the coin features three natural amber stones, known to the ancients as “tears of the Sun,” representing rebirth and immortality.

This richly detailed coin is brought to life with vibrant color through advanced digital printing, and is inlaid with three pieces of natural amber — two smaller stones near the legs and a larger one nestled between the outstretched wings. The coin’s reverse showcases a fully colored Egyptian-style falcon, framed by intricate Egyptian motifs. The obverse bears the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, along with inscriptions denoting the country of issue (Niue), year (2017), face value (Two Dollars), and repeating Egyptian patterns. The amber inlays are visible on both sides, tying the design together with ancient elegance.

Special Features:

• Three genuine amber inserts, each symbolically placed to echo ancient Egyptian jewelry.

• Striking digital color application for a vivid and historically rich design.
