2021 - Niue 2 NZD Silver 1 oz Bullion Coin Eagle - Standard

Eagle 2021

World bullion coins are often dedicated to the national symbols, therefore, the "Eagle", which is the first mintage of its kind intended for the Slovak market, is no exception. The weight of the silver coin of the Czech Mint is one troy ounce.

The Slovaks waited patiently for the opportunity for self-determination for a long time - like a bird of prey circling in the sky over the majestic Tatra Mountains and looking out for its prey. It is no wonder that Slovak poets and revivalists of the 19th century took the eagle as a soul mate and that Ľudovít Štúr himself named the cultural supplement of the Slovak national newspaper "Orol tatránski". Despite the reluctant attempts of the sovereign rulers, the Slovaks retained their culture, language and character until they finally managed to gain independence. The symbol of all they have achieved has again been the eagle, which has represented power, victory, freedom and grandeur, but also a restoration and a new life. The predator, which is a representative of the Christian heavenly kingdom, also refers to the Slovak religious tradition.

The reverse side of the investment coin is dominated by the golden eagle, which is the lord of the Tatras, and in the background there is the magnificent mountain peak Kriváň. The obverse side is then covered with ornaments of the Čičmany pattern, which is a unique addition to Slovak folk architecture. Since the Pacific island of Niue provides the Czech Mint with the license to mint its own investment coins, the obverse side also bears its necessary attributes - the name and the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, the nominal value of 2 DOLLARS (NZD) and the year of issue 2021. The relief was processed by MgA. Martin Dašek.

The Czech Mint has extensive experience with the production of bullion coins. We have been minting "Czech Lion" gold and silver coins since 2017 and they have become popular among investors not only in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, but also in Hungary, Germany, China, Hong Kong, South Korea, Canada and the United States. The world´s largest online distributor of precious metals has also requested them for its offer. One of the reasons why the Czech Mint's investment (bullion) coins have so quickly joined the ranks of world-famous counterparts (such as the Austrian Wiener Philharmoniker, the Canadian Maple Leaf, South African Krugerrand, the American Eagle, the Chinese Panda or the Australian Kangaroo) is their low emission costs. While bullion coins of foreign mints are minted in millions of pieces, the emission limit of coins minted in the Czech Republic is counted in hundreds or thousands. This fact increases the potential for appreciation of investment and adds a collector's dimension. Thanks to the artistic processing, the coin will also serve perfectly as an original and valuable gift - for graduation, wedding, the birth of a child or just for fun…
