First in the Egyptian NCLT series, this is a 5 ounce silver strike that is 11.8 mm thick and has an antiqued edge as well.
Pharaoh Tutankhamun, the boy pharaoh, is one of the most popular and intriguing Egyptian rulers. Scottsdale Mint used their high-quality minting techniques and rimless design, on a remarkable 11.8 mm thick coin, to replicate a hand-carved Egyptian relic. This 5 oz Silver coin is the first in the Egyptian Relic series and features a hand-brushed Antique Proof finish and chiseled granite edge to bring King Tut to life. The coin has a distinct incuse design and a rough finish.
