Description

All hail the silver bug – aka – the lover of all things silver! This round is from Silver Bug High Relief Series from the Intaglio Mint and contains two troy ounces of .999 pure silver. Ancient Egyptians worshipped the scarab beetle and depicted it often in their hieroglyphics and other artistic renderings. Many scarabs have a jewel-like appearance with tones of silver and gold mixed-in with other vibrant colors, giving its shell the rich and sophisticated look of royalty when compared to other insects. In deciding the right specimen(s) worthy of being considered as a “silver bug,” the scarab beetle seems like a natural fit!

Reverse: The Intaglio Mint logo, the weight, and the purity are all inscribed.
