Based on the Battle of Thermopylae, the Molon Labe silver round series drew in collectors with its varying depictions of Spartan warriors engaged in battle with the mighty Persian Army. The Spartans made a famous stand against the overwhelming force of the Persian Army, even refusing to lay down their arms to save their lives. Instead, King Leonidas simply responded to the offer with molon labe, a phrase that informed the Persians they were welcome to come and try to take the weapons of the Spartans. Provident Metals now has 2022 Niue Molon Labe 1 oz Silver Coins available to you for purchase online.

History
The Type I and Type II releases in the Molon Labe Series share the same obverse and reverse designs, but have different design orientations. The Type I release featured a Medallion Die orientation, with the portraits on each side both set upright as you spin the coin 180 degrees. These Type II coins have a Coin Die orientation, resulting in one portrait being upright and the other upside down as you rotate the coin 180 degrees.
