2024 Cook Islands $5 1-oz Silver Numismatic Icons: Gryphon Ultra High Relief Antiqued Coin

The Gryphon: Protector Of Precious Treasures

The ancient city of Abdera was a major Greek municipality on the Thracian coast until it was destroyed in 376 B.C. following an invasion by the Triballi, who killed all the citizens who took part in the battle. Until then, Abdera had flourished and prospered thanks to brisk trade with other members of the Delian League, a confederacy of ancient Greek states under the leadership of Athens. Facilitating this trade were coins struck in Abdera that featured a Gryphon, a creature from Greek mythology that was a cross between a lion and an eagle. The noble Gryphon symbolizes both strength and wisdom and is revered as a guardian of wealth. Now it can represent all those things for you as the towering fifth release in the popular Numismatic Icons Series.

A Towering Coin Design

When we said “towering” we weren’t just blowing smoke! That’s because these coins were struck in an ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver by Germany’s world-famous Mayer Mint using Coin Invest Trust’s (CIT) patented Smartminting® Ultra High Relief Technology. The faithful reproduction of the famous Gryphon literally seems to be bursting off the coin as it rises more than 7 mm from the surface. It’s a jaw-dropping feature made even more remarkable by the addition of a unique antique finish. The combination of the Incredible Ultra High Relief and the sublime antique finish creates a three-dimensional effect that accentuates every detail in a way that’s sure to illicit gasps of surprise when people first lay their eyes on it!
