Amid numerous masterpieces of Egyptian artistic jewelry discovered in the tomb of Tutankhamun, there were found several necklaces and pectorals bearing the efigy of a falcon. The bird represents Horus, the god of the sky and kingship, whose earthly incarnation was the pharaoh – the ruler of Ancient Egypt.

ART OF ANCIENT EGYPT PRESENTED IN A NEW LIGHT
The necklaces in the shape of a falcon were worn as amulets protecting a person against evil forces, calamities and natural disasters. The falcon of Tutankhamun holds in its talons two shen rings – symbols of infinity and eternal protection. In ancient times amber, called the “tears of the Sun”, was a symbol of immortality and rebirth. Did you know that if presented as a gift, it is a token of true friendship? Our beautiful commemorative coin “Falcon of Tutankhamun” is a great gift idea. This outstanding coin minted in two ounces of fine silver is full of positive
energy trapped in the resin millions of years ago.
