Celebrate the mythology and artistry of ancient Greece with the Hera and the Peacock Gold Coin from the Goddesses series. Designed by renowned artist Joel Iskowitz and limited to a worldwide mintage of just 1,000 coins, this collectible contains 1/4 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold.
Hera, queen of the gods in Greek mythology, was associated with marriage, family, and childbirth. The peacock became one of her most recognizable symbols, with its distinctive tail feathers tied to the myth of Argus, Hera's hundred-eyed guardian.
The reverse brings this mythology to life with an intricate depiction of Hera riding through the clouds in a chariot drawn by peacocks. Her hair flows behind her as she holds the reins in one hand and a scepter in the other, symbolizing her status as queen. A peacock perched alongside the chariot further emphasizes the connection between Hera and her sacred bird. The design was created by Joel Iskowitz.
The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II along with the year of issue and face value.
With only 1,000 coins produced, the Hera and the Peacock combines a very limited mintage with detailed mythological artwork and 1/4 troy ounce of highly pure gold, making it an appealing piece for collectors of mythology, world coins, and limited-mintage precious metals.
This is a secondary market coin and has been previously owned. It may exhibit light contact marks, toning, spotting, or other minor cosmetic imperfections consistent with previous handling or storage.
