Republic of Chad 2019 Egyptian Relic Series - Sphinx of Hatshepsut 99.9% Antiqued Silver Coin 5oz

The Egyptian Relic Series (ERS) continues in 2019 with the Sphinx of Hatshepsut.

Hatshepsut was the second ever female pharaoh. She reigned between 1473 and 1458 B.C. Her rule was relatively peaceful, and she was able to launch a building program that would see the construction of a great temple at Luxor. She also launched a successful sea voyage to the land of Punt, a place located somewhere on the northeast coast of Africa, where they traded with the inhabitants.

The sphinx has a long history in Egyptian art. This colossal sphinx portrays the female pharaoh Hatshepsut with the body of a lion and a human head wearing a nemes headcloth and royal postiche (false beard). The reverse displays the Republic of Chad national crest. This exceptional Silver coin would be perfect for any collector.
