One of the latest unique issues from Perth Mint is its Antique Hourglass Silver Coin. These 2 oz silver coins come with a hollowed-out central field that has an insert item. Following in the footsteps of similar issues from the Perth Mint, this design includes an hourglass insert at the center. Provident Metals now has 2021 Antique Tuvalu Hourglass 2 oz Silver Coins available to purchase online.
Highlights:
When you purchase one of these 2021 Antique Tuvalu Hourglass 2 oz Silver Coins online at Provident Metals, you will receive a collectible silver coin packaged beautifully by Perth Mint. Each coin is directly housed inside of a clear, latex display that shows off both the obverse and reverse designs from within the display case. The coin and its display arrive with a themed shipping box and include a Certificate of Authenticity from the mint.
Obverse
Queen Elizabeth II features at the top of the obverse design field on 2021 Antique Tuvalu Hourglass Silver Coins. The coins have a hollow center with only an hourglass insert inside, leaving a ring-like 2 oz silver coin. The right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II featured at the top of the design field is the 1998 design from Ian Rank-Broadley. Inscriptions that accompany this design include 2 OZ 999 AG, 2021, 2 DOLLARS, TUVALU, and QUEEN ELIZABETH II.
Reverse
In the reverse design of 2021 Antique Tuvalu Hourglass 2 oz Silver Coins, you will again find design strikes only around the outer design edge of the field. Here too, you can see the hourglass insert in the central field of the coin. Around the design field, you will find symbols from astrology such as the sun, moon, and various phases of the moon. The only inscription on this face is a P mint mark from Perth Mint.
History
The hourglass is a simple device for measuring the passage of time. Incapable of truly telling you the exact time, an hourglass can be made to tell varying intervals of time based on how large the glass bulbs are, how large or small the particulate matter within is, and how wide or narrow the opening in the neck between the two bottles is.
