2021 5 oz Silver Copper The Eight Protector Series - Manjusri Coin

The third release in the unqiue The Eight Protectors series features Manjusri, the crown prince of Buddhist teachings.

Struck from 5oz of 99.9% pure silver using a new minting technique called “Bi-Metal Max” , that combines 28.5oz of copper in between two layers of silver, resulting in a 120mm super ultra high relief coin. Extremely limited mintage of just 199 coins worldwide!

The design highlights Manjusri with his flaming sword in hand, which he uses to cut and dispel the darkness of ignorance and false perceptions. He rides a lion atop a lotus leaf, symbolising his fearless nature because of his pure wisdom. The lotus flower blooming in his left hand is chosen to mark how he has attained complete realisation and enlightenment. It also signifies the total removal of all undesirable thoughts and worldly troubles. This image of Manjusri is majestic and powerful, to mirror his stature.

On the obverse, the Taoist symbol of ba gua lies in unison with the zodiac wheel, whereby Manjusri is the guardian of the Rabbit zodiac animal. In the middle lies the yin-yang symbol as a backdrop for the legal tender, the Coat of Arms du Tchad.

The coin comes together with a specially designed certificate of authenticity where its serial number will continue to run from the previous series enclosed in a carefully thought-out thematic packaging box, designed and filled with details.
