Son of Zeus, and half-brother to Perseus and Dionysus, Heracles is perhaps better known by his Roman moniker, Hercules. And, of course, by his remarkable feats known as the Twelve Labours of Hercules!
Extremely strong and courageous, Heracles was ordered by his arch-nemesis, Eurystheus, to perform 10 labours (that later became 12) in order to cast him free of sin and take his place as an Immortal.
The latest in the Demi-Gods series, the Heracles two ounce, antique finish silver coin is struck in Ultra High Relief, and features the Demi-God fighting a Centaur! Also included, a red garnet stone, representing a large drinking vessel filled with red wine!
Limited to just 650 coins worldwide.
