The legend of Hercules will never fade when you own the 1 oz Silver Proof Hercules Round from Provident Metals. Each round has been struck with a mirror-like finish and has an extremely limited mintage of 1,000 pieces.
This is the first — and ONLY — silver proof piece to be released in the 12 Labors of Hercules series. Proof Hercules rounds will arrive in a custom display box with a Certificate of Authenticity.
Wearing the Nemean Lion as armor, Hercules faces left clutching his wooden club on the obverse. The reverse is inscribed with THE 12 LABORS OF HERCULES at the center, along with ONE TROY OZ, — roman numerals for .999 — and FINE SILVER.

12 Labors of Hercules
Driven crazy by Hera, Hercules slew his family — only regretful after recovering his sanity. King Thespius purified the son of Zeus, but to atone for his crimes, he was sent to serve King Eurystheus.
Eurystheus ordered Hercules to execute 10 Labors, which were a series of tasks carried out as penance for his actions. Hercules successfully completed all 10, but because his nephew helped with one, and he planned to accept payment for another, Eurystheus forced Hercules to finish two more Labors alone.
Hercules’ Labors adhere to the traditional order of the Bibliotheca:
Nemean Lion – Sept. 12, 2014
Lernaean Hydra – Oct. 12, 2014
Ceryneian Hind – Nov. 12, 2014

Coin comes with a quality box. How does provident decide who gets the lower number coins? I bought mine the first day within the hour it came online. I ended up with almost number 800 coin. I see that over 50% sold at this date 3.06.15. Hmmm. I am assuming this is done randomly. I wish it was first come first serve."

A logical addition to the series, and a worthy one from the looks of it. Pretty box design.cool reed numbering. But even at 1,000pcs, it seeems like a steep premium. Silver Shield ones by the Golden State Mint would be half that. The numbering the main difference in cost/novelty. Lots of hot air in this price. Although I appreciate designing such a box does take a designer a few days to get just right.
I am a fan of the series, a fun way to invest. But such proof prices, that's IMO capital destruction. Pure hobbyism. 4x spot today, will you get 4x spot when silver sets a new USD or EUR high? Highly unlikely. A far better investment than a iPod or fancy DVD box, since you have the ounce of silver in it, but the regular (early) Hercs were a far better investment. 1/3 the price, and already appreciating nicely against silver. That said, Prov may keep this at $69.95 for a while, so as silver rises, it will be less hot air, more silver for your investment :-) I'm getting a bunch of each of the 12 BU ones, and a stack of the 5's by the end of the run, but probably zero of these. But oh if I could get those boxes in bulk at fair cost.... :-)" |

The message of The Labors of Hercules is relevant today as it was in the past. Each Labor is a story of conflict resolution. The most obvious Labor is Cerberus: the conflict and disassociation of a person’s intellect, emotions and instincts. Hercules does not kill Cerberus.
