Detailed description
Abacus - silver coin with counter
Issued by the State of Tuvalu in 2019 in 99.99% silver purity, this unique 2-ounce silver coin with an antique finish is a tribute to ancient civilization and the development of the Silk Road's key trade routes. Embedded in the center of the coin is a 24Kt gold-plated, circular ball counter - the abacus - which has been a symbol and important tool of traders for thousands of years.
The wide circle on the reverse side of the coin features a motif around the functional counter representing ancient trade - a caravan of camels embarking on a long journey, with typical trade commodities such as silk, pottery, carpets, paper, fruit, spices, perfumed oils and ointments in the foreground. The design incorporates the mint mark 'P' at the top edge.
The Silk Road is an ancient route that reached a length of about 6,400 km and connected China, the Middle East and Europe. It served as a crossroads for world trade and helped the development of great civilizations. It is often associated with the abacus, the first known portable calculating device. Traders used a wooden abacus to keep track of the sale and purchase of goods. The abacus, which is still used in China today, remains an important tool and is inextricably linked to an important period in world history.
The circle on the obverse bears a small portrait of Queen Elizabeth II at the top, followed by oval ball depressions in the inner circle and the inscriptions 'QUEEN ELIZABETH II', 'TUVALU' and details of the denomination, weight, silver purity and year of issue in the outer circle.
The coin comes in a presentation frame and original gift box with a certificate of authenticity in a limited edition of 2500 pieces for the whole world.
