The impressive detail in this two-ounce silver round will go down in history as one of the finest pieces of precious metal ever created. The original shield was created in the 1500s for Henry II and has the legendary (and bloody) scene of the Battle of Cannae fought between Rome and Carthage armies. The actual shield (made of steel, gold and silver) is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, but you can have the next best thing by purchasing this silver round today from Royal Bull.
The battle design is of course the highlight of the silver round, but the intricacies also include the initials of the king as well as his queen and mistress, along with his crescents, the king’s personal badge and a reference to the moon goddess Diana and her namesake Diane de Poitiers.
Not only is the shape, finish and design remarkable, but this 3-D round by KOMSCO is designed to also be stackable, encouraging savvy investors and collectors like yourself to buy more than one.
