Palau: Mineral Art - Hagia Sophia 2 Ounces Silver 2016 Antiqued Coin is a unique collectible coin with a face value of 10 dollars from the prestigious „Mineral Art“ series. Struck from 2 ounces of .999 fine silver with an antiqued finish, it impresses with the combination of numismatic artistry and a genuine mineral – in this case, amber. The limited mintage of 999 pieces makes it a true collector’s item.

The coin depicts one of the most important monuments of Byzantine culture – Hagia Sophia, which has served as a Christian church, mosque, and now a museum throughout history. Its richly decorated interior, including numerous mosaics, is artistically reproduced on the coin, emphasizing its historical and artistic value. The antiqued finish adds depth and contrast, while the amber subtly highlights the design, creating a striking visual effect.

The coin combines minting precision, artistic craftsmanship, and investment-grade silver, making it an exceptional addition to any numismatic collection. Perfect for lovers of architecture, history, and minerals.

Obverse depicts the interior of Hagia Sophia along with the coat of arms of Palau, with the denomination – 10 $ – at the bottom.
