Terracotta Warriors Silver Coins
In 1974, six men in rural China were digging a well for their farm—but instead of finding water, they continued to dig up roofing tiles, bricks, and chunks of masonry. The farmers reported their findings to Chinese archaeologists, who unearthed an unbelievable site: thousands of terracotta warriors, over 2,000 years old, arranged into a massive army to protect a vast necropolis for the Qin Dynasty.
The Terracotta Army is an awe-inspiring wonder, a massive and truly unique work of art and culture. To commemorate this unparalleled initiative, Scottsdale Mint created its Terracotta Warriors Series, which includes three gorgeous silver coins imprinted with scenes from the Terracotta Army. Produced exclusively by Scottsdale Mint, the Terracotta Warriors silver coins serve as exceptional collector’s items and valuable investment pieces.
What are Terracotta Warriors Silver Coins?
In 221 B.C.E., Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi commissioned the Terracotta Army to protect his tomb, which lay underneath the remains of his empire’s capital city. The entire necropolis is enormous, spanning over 38 square miles, and is filled with an array of buildings and structures to mimic the emperor’s wealth in death as in life. The life-sized terracotta warriors are placed in regimental order, with infantry as well as cavalry, and feature outstanding variation in the details of their faces, clothing, posture, and more.
The Terracotta Warriors silver coin series is an exclusive line of silver products from Scottsdale Mint, meant to commemorate the majesty and splendor of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Each coin depicts a different scene from the Terracotta Army on the reverse, such as a close-up of a warrior’s unique face or an angled view of a large regiment of warriors standing in the pit. The words “Terracotta Warriors” are inscribed in Chinese on each coin, signaling the coins’ inclusion in the series. The coins feature a rimless design, so the images of the Terracotta Army appear as large and glorious as possible.
On the obverse, or front, each coin shows Fiji’s coat of arms as well as the weight, purity, and dollar value of the coin. Terracotta Warriors silver coins are each a sizable 5 troy oz, giving them significant weight in the hand, and like all Scottsdale Mint silver coins are made from .999 fine silver. The coins are antiqued, meaning they are given a finish that makes the coin look and feel like it was unearthed with the Terracotta Army itself.
