Rare Set of 7 Ancient "Seven Species" Coin Replicas
One out of a tiny prestigious Fine Gold Edition of only 50 Sets distributed worldwide!
In 2007, Israel Government Coins and Medals Corp., together with the Israel Antiquities Authority, issued a stunning series of seven ancient Jewish coin replicas. Most of the original coins were struck in the Land of Israel and some of them are very rare.
The common theme depicted on the coins is the "Seven Species" of plants characteristic of the Land of Israel, which had special significance in the culture and lifestyle of the people.
Containing 7 ancient coin replicas, this set is one of the 50 sets in the prestigious Fine Gold Edition.
The same hand-striking techniques used in ancient times to strike the original coins were applied with outstanding precision in production of the replicas, which were approved by the Israel Antiquities Authority.
The rare set now offered for sale is from a private collection and comes in its original packaging with a detailed explanatory booklet, telling the story of the historical coins and describing how they were struck.
