2023 Oglala Sioux Silver & Gold Native American Spirit War Horse Ultra High Relief Antiqued 2-pc Coin Set NGC MS70 First Day of Issue
The Legacy Of The Native American Spirt War Horse
Next to the buffalo, no animal was more important to the Plains Indian culture and way of life than the wild horses that roamed free throughout the West. These Indian Ponies were symbols of wealth and not only provided transport for an entire village but were indispensable for hunting buffalo and making war on enemies. In fact, raiding and capturing enemy horses was often at the root of inter-tribal warfare. For a young man trying to earn his place as a warrior, relieving an enemy of his horses was considered an honorable rite of passage. It’s no wonder that the Native Spirit War Horse has become a revered symbol among many tribes, especially those like the Oglala Lakota Sioux Nation that has released this incredible legal-tender two-piece coin set that depicts one of these Mustangs in stunning detail.
Vivid Images Of America’s Wild Mustang
This set consists of coins struck in two ounces of highly pure 99.9% fine silver and one ounce of 99.9% pure gold with Oglala Lakota Sioux Nation legal-tender values of $2 and $50 respectively. Each shows a Native American Spirt War Horse nearly ready for battle taken directly from a beautiful painting by renowned American equestrian artist Laurie Prindle, who has been winning awards for her artwork since she was a teen. The horse has been painted for battle, saddled with a blanket, and his nostrils have caught the scent of the coming fight. All he waits on is for his flowing mane to be tied. Once that’s accomplished, he and his warrior brother armed with spear, war club and shield will be on their way to count coup against their enemies. The reverse of each reverse displays a vivid Native American design that serves as the Oglala Lakota Sioux Nation’s Coat of Arms.
Ultra High Relief Designs With An Antiqued Finish
To accentuate the designs, each coin has been struck in Ultra High Relief (UHR) with a concave field that creates maximum contrast with the designs. To further augment that contrast, the coins were layered with a superb antiqued finish. This unique finish adds a taste of history that will have you imagining a bygone day when Indians painted for war charged their ponies at U.S. cavalrymen dressed in dirty-shirt blue. Antique finishes like this are typically applied by hand, meaning that no two coins are exactly alike!
In addition, each Oglala Sioux Native American Spirt War Horse Ultra High Relief Coin available in this offer has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) as being in flawless Mint State-70 (MS70) condition, a distinction that means your perfectly-graded coins will have ZERO imperfections—showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended.
