Pobjoy Mint is thrilled to announce a brand new coin series issued on behalf of Sierra Leone commemorating 250 years since the birth of British Egyptologist Dr Thomas Young. This stunning series will feature four Egyptian Gods with the first coin depicting the Goddess Isis. Isis was a major goddess in ancient Egypt religion whose worship spread throughout the Greco-Roman world. As mourner, she was a principal deity in rites connected with the dead; as magical healer, she cured the sick and brought the deceased to life; and as mother, she was a role model for all women.
The design features an image of the Egyptian Goddess Isis and her name in hieroglyphics appearing in a rectangle. The design in the background features typical Egyptian decoration with hieroglyphics.
The Proof Fine Silver with Goldclad® version will also feature the Goddess in full colour within a golden background transporting you to the tombs of Ancient Egypt with their colourful depictions of the Gods and Goddesses.
The obverse of these coins feature the Coat of Arms of Sierra Leone. Isis was first mentioned as one of the main characters of the Osiris myth in which she resurrects her slain brother and husband, the divine king Osiris, and produces and protects his heir, Horus. She was usually portrayed in art as a human woman wearing a throne-like hieroglyph on her head.
