Step into the captivating world of Roman mythology, where the god Mercury takes center stage. Mercury’s origins can be traced back to the Roman interpretation of the Greek god Hermes. While Mercury and Hermes share many common traits, the Romans added their unique touch, highlighting his crucial role in commerce and trade. Currently, you have the opportunity to purchase 1 oz Gold Mercury Bars online at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Every 1 oz Gold Mercury Bar available here is thoughtfully enclosed within its blisterpack. Each pack includes an assay, providing you with the corresponding weight and purity, as seen on the gold bar itself.
Obverse
The obverse side of the Gold Mercury Bar elegantly portrays the Roman god. Here, Mercury’s muscular physique is captured in a right-profile relief, conveying a sense of dynamic motion. Historically, Mercury was often depicted wearing a winged helmet and sandals, symbolizing his swiftness as a messenger. He was also known to carry a caduceus, a staff with two intertwined serpents, which has since become a symbol of medicine and healing.
Reverse
On the reverse side of these 1 oz Mercury Bars, you’ll find the SMI logo gracing the top of the bar. All the crucial details, including the individual weight, metal content, and purity, are prominently displayed on this side. The Sunshine Eagle at the bottom serves as the Enhanced SMI Security feature. Inscriptions here include SMI, 1 TROY OZ, 9999, and FINE GOLD.
History
Mercury, known as “Mercurius” in Latin, was the Roman god associated with communication, commerce, and travelers. Often regarded as the messenger of the gods, he played a pivotal role in delivering messages and guiding souls to the afterlife. Interestingly, the planet Mercury takes its name from this Roman deity, with its swift orbit reflecting Mercury’s agile nature.
