The Ghisi Shield is an impressive piece of Venetian history, originally created for the Ghisi family, who held significant political and military power in the Venetian Republic during the 13th and 14th centuries. This legendary design is now captured on an antique silver coin featuring both domed and concave surfaces. The 2025 Antique Niue Ghisi Shield Convex Concave 2 oz Silver Coin is now available at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
Each 2025 Antique Niue Ghisi Shield Convex Concave Silver Coin comes packaged in a presentation box with a Certificate of Authenticity. The obverse features a concave surface, while the reverse stands out with its domed, convex design. Both sides feature a detailed antique finish for added character.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2025 Antique Niue Ghisi Shield Silver Coin features the Public Seal of Niue. This includes a central design of local flora surrounded by a ring of seashells and topped with a Sovereign crown, symbolizing Niues ties to the Commonwealth. Inscriptions include FIVE DOLLARS, PUBLIC SEAL OF NIUE, and 2025.
Reverse
The reverse of the 2025 Antique Ghisi Shield 2 oz Silver Coin displays the famous Ghisi Shield. The intricate design, first crafted by Giorgio Ghisi in 1554, includes a central scene of battling horsemen framed by four panels featuring allegorical figures representing Victory, Fame, Fortitude, and Prudence.
History
The Ghisi Shields story connects closely with the rise of Venice as a dominant maritime power. Commissioned at the height of the Ghisi familys authority in the Eastern Mediterranean, the shield likely accompanied family members in ceremonial events and possibly on military campaigns, serving as both protection and a statement of their status.
