Though somewhat morbid, the Latin phrase Memento Mori is also a valuable reminder for us in our daily lives. Translating to remember that you will die, the phrase calls us to embrace the moment and cherish each day with gratitude and happiness. These silver rounds feature a stunning Memento Mori skull symbol, reminding us of the precious gift that is life itself. Provident Metals now has 2023 Memento Mori 1 oz Silver Rounds available to you for purchase online.
Round Highlights:
Each 2023 Memento Mori 1 oz Round in this Provident Metals listing online was struck at Intaglio Mint, a private minting company based in Colorado. Established in 2010, Intaglio is responsible for some of the most exciting silver round collections and designs on the market today. These particular rounds consist of .999 pure silver and will arrive in individual flips. But should you purchase multiples of 20, they will be delivered in plastic tubes.
Obverse
A skull rendition is contained on the obverse of 2023 Memento Mori Silver Rounds. This is quite fitting given the fact that the human skull is a prominent symbol for Memento Mori. Enhancing the aesthetic value of the design are numerous flourishes along the edges, also related to the theme of death. Some of these include a burned candlestick, an hourglass, and a smaller skull adorned with a crown and the wings of good and evil. You will also find inscribed along the rim the words MEMENTO MORI.
Reverse
The Intaglio Mint logo features on the reverse side of these Memento Mori 1 oz Silver Rounds. In the center of the design, there is a Roman column with its ends curved to form the letter I. The reverse also contains concentric circle patterns and inscriptions reading INTAGLIO MINT, EST. 2010, ONE TROY OUNCE, .999 FINE SILVER, 2023.
History
According to some accounts, the phrase Memento Mori dates back to ancient Rome. After a successful war, a general returned home, gloating over of his accomplishments. He paraded around town on his horse, proclaiming his glorious achievements with excessive pride. At that moment, a slave approached the conceited general and spoke the words Memento Mori. To this day, these words remind us all that we ought to live humbly since ultimately we all are destined for the grave.
