Description
THE STORY
Flying from flower to flower, the honey bee collects pollen, floral oils, and the nectar that is turned into honey at the hive; as it moves about, it provides an essential pollination service that helps plants grow and reproduce, ultimately contributing to one-third of the foods we eat. Known to be efficient both in instinct and design, the honeybee and its comb are beautifully adorned with yellow gold plating on this 99.99% pure silver coin, which, fittingly, features the popular hexagon coin shape that mimics the natural design of a honeycomb cell, widely considered to be nature’s perfect structure.
Venerated for its industrious nature, the honey bee takes centre stage on this hexagonal coin’s reverse, where the layered design highlights the relationship between the pollinator, its pollen source, and its honeycomb.
KEY FEATURES
