In the final design of the PAMP Suisse Hunters of the Sky Series, a shaped silver coin is issued to represent one of the most prominent hunters in the Americas: the great horned owl. Also known as the tiger owl, the great horned owl is the most widely distributed and popular true owl species in the Americas. It now takes its place alongside the Bald Eagle and Red-Tailed Hawk issues in this three-coin collection. Provident Metals currently offers the 2020 Solomon Islands Great Horned Owl Shaped 1 oz Silver Coin for online purchasing.
Highlights:
When you purchase a 2020 Solomon Islands Great Horned Owl Shaped 1 oz Silver Coin you receive a product with reverse proof visuals. The coins have frosted background fields with mirrored designs that stand out from the surface of the coin. Each coin is available in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and features a rectangular capsule. The coin and its capsule are housed in a shipping case that includes colorized photographs of the Great Horned Owl and its natural habitat.
Obverse
The obverse face of the 2020 Solomon Islands Great Horned Owl Shaped 1 oz Silver Coin bears the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This particular effigy was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley for the Royal Mint of England. It depicts the Queen in right-profile relief with the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara on her head. This portrait featured on British coins from 1998 to 2015, Australian coins from 1999 to 2018, and is still in use on coins for Commonwealth nations such as Niue, Tuvalu, and the Solomon Islands.
Reverse
On the reverse side of 2020 Solomon Islands Great Horned Owl Shaped 1 oz Silver Coins, you will find the intricate details of the owl species. The details include the eyes, beak, talons, and features of the owl. The design captures the owl as it swoops toward its prey. The great horned owl subsists on a diet that includes mostly rodents and other small mammals.
History
The Hunters of the Sky Series is produced by PAMP Suisse. The noted refiner offers limited mintages for each design and produces the coins in the shape of the bird represented. It is a sister series to the Hunters of the Deep, a collection of silver coins honoring some of the greatest predators in the ocean.
