A discovery that sparked significant interest in Ancient Egypt, and a consequential deeper focus on archaeological efforts was the iconic revelation of King Tutankhamun’s tomb by Howard Carter in 1922. The famous pharaoh was buried within The Valley of The King’s, joining many of his ancestors who had been entombed there for decades and centuries prior.
This year, we celebrate 100 years since the discovery of King Tut’s tomb by Howard Carter, and what better way to honour this unforgettable historical discovery than with a unique replication of the young pharaoh’s mask which was discovered by the archaeologist.
Gilded in 24 carat gold plating, this coin’s design is based on the colouration of the Original Mask of Tutankhamun and is a special legal tender edition.
Featured on the obverse of this coin is an effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, demonstrating its legal tender status. This effigy is surrounded by hieroglyphics, a form of pictorial writing in Ancient Egypt.
Part of the Legacy of Egypt Series, this incredible coin has an extremely limited edition and is sure to sell-out, so don’t miss out on this unique opportunity!
