2020 - Mongolia Majestic Eagle
The Black Proof Ultra High Relief Coin struck from 2 ounces of 99.9% silver is the first release in the Wild Mongolia Series and is dedicated to the king of the skies - the Majestic Eagle. The motive depicts two different representations of a Stone Eagle. While the animal is presented in half-profile in the foreground, it is shown from the front in the background and seems to stare at the viewer with a penetrating gaze.
This stunning 2 oz silver Black Proof features the same design that was released in Berlin, but done with a different finish that has become a very popular way to collect coins. CIT released the Majestic Eagle to showcase their newest smartminting© technology. It was an instant success and was featured in many numismatic publications and sold out almost instantly. Numismatic experts and collectors alike were stunned by its beauty and technical specifications. What’s incredible about the finish is that it allows every single detail to still be seen in brilliant clarity. Everything from the individual feathers to the eagle’s glare staring at you in the background and the way the claw rips through the surface of the coin, it’s all there!
Limited mintage to 999 pieces worldwide.
On the Reverse side of the coin there are the eagle claws holding an arrow and seem to snatch the coin. The obverse of the coin features the Mongolian Coat of Arms and the inscriptions: "1000 TOGROG" – the face value, "MONGOLIA" – the issuing country and "2 OZ .999 SILVER" – the weight and fineness of the Silver.
