Mars is the third coin in the series of oxidised twoounce coins "Roman Gods".
Mars - Roman god of rage, passion, destruction and war. As a fundamental deity, Mars had a mythology closely related to the Roman city-state. Mars ruled early Rome as part of the Archaic Triad, the male ruling triumvirate that also included Jupiter and Quirin (the deified Romulus). The early Romans worshiped Mars as a great raging god whose fury inspired the savagery of war and brought about the stunning achievements of Roman weapons. As Rome moved from city-states to empire and overtly embraced Greek cultural values, Mars lost its prominent position in the Roman pantheon to Minerva, goddess of tactical and strategic warfare.
The reverse of the coin depicts the god of war killing his victim who lies at his feet. The battle scene is shown in a dynamic manner, the posture of the main figure indicates strength, attack and ruthlessness. In the background you can see the battle scene and the terrified soldiers who are watching the fight.
The obverse features Queen Elizabeth II.
