Description: 2 oz .999 Silver Antiqued High Relief Horus Egyptian god The Egyptian gods series moves to its seventh release with a new design honoring the 'god' Horus. Most notably referred to as the god of Kingship, many Egyptian accounts of Horus have him closely associated with the ruling pharaohs in life, though it is his father, Osiris, that the pharaohs are associated with in death.Round Highlights:Ships in plastic flip7th release Antique visualsContains 2 Troy oz of .999 pure silver.Horus is featured in human form on the obverse, along with symbols used to represent him in Egyptian hieroglyphs and art.A falcon represents Horus in the reverse design field.Created by Heidi Wastweet.Horus is one of the more significant gods of Ancient Egypt. The son of Isis and Osiris, he is associated with the ruling pharaohs, much like his father Osiris, but in a very different manner. While Horus is associated with the ruling pharaohs in life, those pharaohs become associated with Osiris when they pass on to the afterlife and rejoin not only the other pharaohs, but also the other gods.In the obverse design of the Antique Horus Silver Round, you will find the image of Horus as depicted in human form. With the body of a man, Horus has the head of a falcon and clutches a staff in his outstretched right hand. Set, his antithesis in the afterworld, looks on from the shadows. The field includes the falcon hieroglyph that often represented Horus in Ancient Egyptian texts. Additionally, the famous Eye of Horus is also captured on this side.For the reverse design field of 2 oz Antique Horus Silver Rounds, the design captures Horus in hieroglyph form. That is to say, he is shown here as a falcon that sits in right-profile relief wearing the pschent, a double crown representing the pharaohs who ruled over Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt. There is a cobra beneath the talons of the falcon and a pyramid in the background.
