Terracotta Army - 5 Oz
Issued by the State of Fiji for 2021 and minted by the Scottsdale Mint in the finest 99.9% pure silver, this five ounce (155.52 g) silver investment coin with an antique finish is dedicated to the "Terracotta Army", part of the largest tomb in the world - the mausoleum of the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty. .
The reverse side of the coin shows a close-up view of the faces of two statues of soldiers of the Qin Emperor Shi Huangti. They demonstrate the original and unique treatment of each member of the numerous troops. The motif is complemented by the Chinese characters 兵马俑 (Terracotta Army). The coin is struck in a patinated design, the edge of the coin is polished and irregular as if hand-worked.
The Terracotta Army dates from the 3rd century BC. It was discovered by peasants in 1974 while digging a well in the Chinese province of Shanxi. It is located in the burial complex of the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty. The army consists of more than 8,000 soldiers, horses and war chariots. The statues have been crafted with impressive detail. Each one is unique with unique facial features and is complete with armor and real weapons. The statues themselves were made piecemeal from individual parts. The entire statue was then modelled, fired and colour-finished to a realistic likeness.
The obverse of the coin depicts the Fiji national emblem surrounded by the inscriptions "FIJI", the year of issue, weight, purity, and face value.
The coin comes in a stylish pouch with a certificate of authenticity.
