62.2 (2 oz) Ag – 11.5 oz Cu. This 2 Oz Silver coin is dedicated to Vlad III Dracula, better known as The Impaler and for extremely cruel measures to inspire fear in those who opposed him. The coin has an Antique Finish quality and comes in a themed case, along with the Certificate of Authenticity. Limited mintage to 500 pieces worldwide! The reverse of the coin features a detailed image of Vlad The Impaler and highlights the ruler in a scene of horror, as he is shown enjoying a feast of dinner while the impaled enemies and victims with their corpses looming in the background, signifying the bloody and gruesomeness of the ruler and the atrocities of the method he used for instilling fear, torturing and killing his enemies. The 2 Oz Silver coin is struck in a new minting technique that combines 11.5 Oz of Copper in between two layers of Fine Silver, resulting in super ultra-High Relief while being tapped off with Silver Antique Finishing.
